This was a very close task, and hard luck to Team Reflections on their defeat. However, it was a defeat, and - as seen in the results - there were several items you could have found substantially cheaper.
Team Reflections, where do you think the problems lay?
I don't think we had any major disasters - everyone was looking at what they wanted to look at and at the end of the day we just missed out on some good, cheaper items.

Team Reflections, where do you think the problems lay?
I think we could've looked so much harder, I mean, had we found a headboard for nothing like Viveza, we'd have won the task!
I'm not sure I could pinpoint a specific problem within the team - although possibly we should have allocated more time to checking over the prices of everything. The flight ticket is really frustrating me, I spent all weekend trying different combinations of dates and airports, so I'm quite annoyed I missed that cheaper price.
And are there any specific team members who you feel could have worked harder?
No not at all, we all did what we were assigned, but had we collectively had that sit-down period where we looked together instead of individuals, we might' have found cheaper items. Everyone worked well!
This question is to anyone who wishes to answer it.
I personally feel we all worked hard. Gav and Katie weren't here last night but Gav had computer problems and Katie was out. Sometimes,, I feel Jess was going down the sarcastic route again like last week, and it made it harder to fully buckle down and concentrate, but she did find some good results

Is this question to all of us or Jess?
