I'm kidding about the R1300 of course, but I'm just showing how quickly the amount goes down when others pitch in too. Another 5 guys and it's 650 ea.

On the subject of the Logo day costing people money:
I heard a little bird tweet that young mister Bugger spent R20k of his own money to make the day work............
For the R3k I paid I got a lot of exposure for my new company........a lot more than for the R20k I spent on another ad.
Just goes to show: a little bit of sponsorship at an event like this can buy you lots of advertising.
VW suppliers please take note.

HI All you guys thanks for the Generous offer
But we gracefully Decline Payments
The Jumping castle is paid for and sorted out with the owner of the Castles
All we ask from all is when there is a event no mater size or place and it does not mater who organized it pls do your best to support the Organizers as they Go through one
Hell of a time and effort to bring all of us a decent event and Yes what John Hoffe said about the Logo day was true financially(even worse) and yes it made me want to sell or give up all ACVW`s and take up drinking or kick yourself as a sport
But Winners don't Quit and Quitters don't win so I will be Back with everyone that helped with the Logo day and We have learned one hell of a lot for a Future event being
a Logo day or something else.
Myself and all my friends Will support the South Africa Guide-Dogs Association more and more in the Future as they do need support
Once again thanks to those that was willing to contribute to wards the loss you all Rock

We (me and my brother-in-law) buy vehicles (trucks, LDVs, cars) in bulk from companies when they do fleet disposal. Some we fix and sell but mostly we wholesale straight onto a number of dealerships that we have agreements with.
My job is to handle the offers, do payments, sort the VAT, tax, etc. Initially it was fun moving large sums of money around but 8 months later and has become a pain in the @ss.
