    This is the week Stephen HAS to be PM, he's a gonner, I hope...
    All though I would like to see him in the interviews, I reckon he'd get torn to SHREDS!
    Thoughts folks

    I don't think this restaurant manager realises he's going to be asked to give a substantial discount.

    All those discount sites work like that, that want a minimum of 50% and then the take a commission off the prices paid!

    Who is that restaurant manager? Has he been on something like Hell's Kitchen? He looks very familiar.

    Crazy expecting a top class restaurant in London to offer discounts. Top class places like that don't need to offer discounts to get people in the door.

    I missed the beginning, but that's what I was thinking, should they not be targeting places that need to build their client base.

    In theory, yes.
    However the task is to try and get some fancy deals.
    Not too fancy though!
    As Karen says "luxury experiences".
    Going to Marcus Waering is taking the proverbial though! Two Michelin star restaurant? Ha ha.... gotta be kidding me.

    Is the objective to get the most discount in terms of price? Usually Lord Sugar ( I miss 'sir allen') is all about the cash.

    The products will then go on the site and the team that sells the most wins.

    Well what do I know? Marcus struck a deal with them! :D

    Depends how many deals for each product were agreed and offered! He may have only offered 2 or 3 of them.
    Still, it's a very interesting task. Really enjoying it this week.
