For the amount we buy, I expect we get them for pennies.
If the Combo vans are £3.5k and actually have a significant cost to make, then these, with a relatively small cost are like a can of beer and bag of chips.

If "later during the round they find you" then you shouldn't hand over anything, especially a Special Delivery, to them in the street.eastie wrote:If you try to deliver a special before 1pm and the person is out , then later during the round they find you and you scan and get a signiture after 1pm is it classed as a fail?
However, working in a backwater that's never had PDAs, if returning to the office past an address I advised a Special before 1pm I might call again if they've returned home in which case they just sign on the card against the original pre-1pm time.

3.5k sounds more like the annual running cost of the van rather than the purchase pricebringon4dayweeks wrote:i doubt we but those combo vans for 3.5k even with a discount
