After my initial success selling spit roasts, I was wondering about short term local hire ?
Has any one else tried hiring an item for a couple of days ? and advertising it ?
I was thinking about charging �45.00 for a weekend, if collected, more for delivery and collection, cleaning etc.
Should I approach local butchers with a view to doing a deal ?

A large discount may be available for invitations to functions involving free limitless supply of alcohol and overnight accommodation

This sounds like an excellent idea Dave - you could then offer the complete package.

Hire is definitely a good idea, good for the butchers too?
