0:00:02 > 0:00:03I'm Saira Khan, a successful businesswoman.
0:00:03 > 0:00:05I started trading as a teenager.
0:00:05 > 0:00:10Now I'm looking for the next generation of budding entrepreneurs
0:00:10 > 0:00:15who are fantastic at trading and know how to make a profit.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18I'm looking for Britain's best young traders.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21Will you do three for £2?
0:00:21 > 0:00:24- Can I interest you in only 50p for the jumbo sword?- Yes.- No!
0:00:24 > 0:00:30From over 1,000 applicants, 14 teams have made it through to the heats.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33- Would you like a pick 'n' mix fruit dessert?- Very nice. Oh, lovely.
0:00:33 > 0:00:37They will be tested in a range of tough trading challenges.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40I don't know how I'll survive this cheese challenge.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42I think you look amazing.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45Each team will be given £75.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48They must decide what to buy...
0:00:48 > 0:00:51I think we need to look for a cheaper option.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54- ..negotiate the lowest prices... - It's a deal.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- £8.40?- You drive a hard bargain.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59Nice doing business with you.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01..and then they must sell, sell, sell.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Any ring you want. £10.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Come on, glitzy glam!
0:01:05 > 0:01:09The team that takes the most money wins the challenge.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12But only the teams that top the leaderboard
0:01:12 > 0:01:15could be in with a chance of competing
0:01:15 > 0:01:17in the grand final in New York.
0:01:17 > 0:01:23Trade your way to the USA! USA!
0:01:25 > 0:01:29Watch them in action, listen out for my top trading tips and one day
0:01:29 > 0:01:33you, too, could trade your way to the USA.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39It's time to meet today's two teams.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Both are from Birmingham.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45It's the Camphillian Traders versus the OAPS.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49We're the Camphillian Traders and we'll trade our way to the USA!
0:01:51 > 0:01:54We think we make a good team cos we've got a variety of talents
0:01:54 > 0:01:56and good personalities.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Hi, I'm Jade. I've been doing ballet since I was five.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04It takes discipline, hard work and dedication to come in at this level.
0:02:04 > 0:02:09I think I'll be able to apply these to the competition to hopefully win.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13I'm Jessica, and I'm into IT and computing.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16It takes logic and patience to develop your knowledge.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I'll use logic and patience to develop the best plan to win.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22To play the piano, you need passion.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25I hope to bring that to the competition
0:02:25 > 0:02:27so we can be better than the other teams.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Fighting talk from the Camphillian Traders,
0:02:31 > 0:02:33but what about their competition...
0:02:33 > 0:02:36the OAPs?
0:02:36 > 0:02:40Basically, it means Oscar, Arjan and Pip.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43It also means Old Age Pensioners.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- So we can make the world think we're old.- That'll be our trick,
0:02:47 > 0:02:49everyone thinking we're old people,
0:02:49 > 0:02:53but actually we're not - we're young and feisty.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Arjan and twin brothers Oscar and Pip reckon they've got the skills
0:02:59 > 0:03:01to make up a good business team.
0:03:01 > 0:03:02Give us yer money!
0:03:02 > 0:03:04I've got an ability to talk to people
0:03:04 > 0:03:06so I'll just talk and talk
0:03:06 > 0:03:09and I'll get friendly with them and be like, "You can buy this."
0:03:09 > 0:03:12They'll be like, "Yeah, yeah!" and just carry on talking.
0:03:12 > 0:03:18I'm a very geeky person. Strangely, I like maths.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24I know how to do lots of different divisions
0:03:24 > 0:03:26and I can do it quickly in my head.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29My maths skills will be handy in a trading situation,
0:03:29 > 0:03:31where I have to choose the best product.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36I'm quite a funny, optimistic person,
0:03:36 > 0:03:38which I think will really be good for the team
0:03:38 > 0:03:43because I can make people laugh so they feel comfortable around me,
0:03:43 > 0:03:46comfortable enough to buy the product.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49So we've got a chatterbox, a brainbox and a comedian.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52We are very persuasive people, we hope.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55- We think.- We know!- Yeah, we know!
0:03:55 > 0:04:02So it's the wacky OAPS taking on the clear-headed Camphillian Traders.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Which team will take the most money and win today's challenge?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Today, our teams are out and about in the centre of Birmingham.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Let's reveal today's challenge.
0:04:19 > 0:04:24Welcome, everybody. Your trading challenge is to set up
0:04:24 > 0:04:28a flower stall in one of Britain's top tourist cities -
0:04:28 > 0:04:29Stratford-upon-Avon.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34That's why we're here at Sunflower Cash & Carry in Birmingham.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37There's flowers galore! Let's get in there!
0:04:41 > 0:04:44There's a huge range of flowers to choose from here.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Camphillian Traders and the OAPs have to pick the right ones
0:04:48 > 0:04:51to sell on their stall in Stratford-upon-Avon.
0:04:51 > 0:04:56The historic market town is the birthplace of William Shakespeare
0:04:56 > 0:04:58and it attracts thousands of visitors.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04I was slightly nervous when I was set the challenge because...
0:05:04 > 0:05:10we're facing girls and they know more about flowers than us.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11I think the team are confident,
0:05:11 > 0:05:15cos we're more girly and flowers are more of a girl subject.
0:05:16 > 0:05:21It's time to buy. Both teams have a £75 trade fund to spend.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Here's your trading fund.
0:05:26 > 0:05:32Spend it wisely and remember you're in competition with each other.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34The team that makes the most money wins
0:05:34 > 0:05:36and has a chance to go to the semifinal.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40Win THAT and you'll be trading your way to the USA.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45First rule of trading is research.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Russell runs the flower warehouse and they can pick his brains.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Which are the top-three best-selling plants?
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Best are probably roses, Chrysants and Gerberas.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55- Do you know what they are?- No.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Chrysants on the back wall, roses to the right
0:05:58 > 0:05:59and Gerberas are over there.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Good question, Oscar.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05My top tip to all you traders - try and find the best-selling product.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Then you know you've got what your customers are looking for.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Don't buy orchids. - We're not buying.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Camphillian Traders get picking straight away.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22these are...10.80.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24We could sell them for a higher price.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26But what are the OAPs doing?
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Come on, boys! You've only got 15 minutes!
0:06:32 > 0:06:37I think they'll look nice mixed with other bunches of flowers.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41- There's 25p per...thing. - Per flower?- Yeah.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42How many flowers do we need?
0:06:42 > 0:06:46- I think ten.- Ten?- Yeah. - Cos that's only £3.50.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49The Camphillian Traders have an interesting plan
0:06:49 > 0:06:51for how to sell their flowers.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54We're planning to do a pick-a-bunch.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57You have a selection of flowers laid out
0:06:57 > 0:06:59and then we might buy some baskets
0:06:59 > 0:07:02for them to pick which flowers they want.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07Ah! So they plan to let their customers make their own bouquets.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14The OAPs, on the other hand, have decided to follow Russell's advice
0:07:14 > 0:07:17and just buy the most popular flowers.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19What we going to get?
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Er...two lots of roses.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Yeah.- And then we'll get, er...
0:07:25 > 0:07:27- four Germans.- Gerberas!
0:07:27 > 0:07:31Hey, boys, that strategy may have its advantages.
0:07:31 > 0:07:36Here's a top tip - in business, you don't always have to take risks.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Sometimes it's best to keep it simple.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43We just need decorations now.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46The girls are now looking at buying the wrapping for their flowers.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51We plan to spend £50 and £25 on decorations.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55You could get one of them and one of them.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59Presentation IS important when selling flowers,
0:07:59 > 0:08:02but I'm not sure about spending £25 on it.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06That'll be a third of their budget that could be spent on flowers.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Let's look at the other boxes. - Shall we get this?
0:08:09 > 0:08:12The boys take just seconds to decide on the packaging.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14- We don't want that. - Yeah, we don't need those.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Comes to about £12.64.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21£12.64 on packaging?
0:08:21 > 0:08:25That's just half the amount the girls are planning to spend.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29It looks like the boys are going to sell flowers without nice wrapping.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31We want the prices as low as possible
0:08:31 > 0:08:34so we can get more flowers and sell more.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35I think we have a good advantage
0:08:35 > 0:08:38cos the only time boys buy flowers are for girls.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42We can say, "Girls like this more" and sell it for a higher price.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Don't be TOO confident, Camphillian Traders.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48The OAPs aren't beaten yet.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Time's up on deciding what to buy.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55Now they've got to negotiate with Russell.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Remember, they've got £75 to spend.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00They need to haggle for the best prices now,
0:09:00 > 0:09:04so they can take the most money when they sell tomorrow.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07The Camphillian Traders are up first.
0:09:07 > 0:09:14- 3.75. Can we get this for £3? It's 3.75.- 3.70?
0:09:15 > 0:09:162.90.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20Hang on a minute! The Camphillian Traders just offered him £3.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Now they've gone down to £2.90.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26Negotiating, you're supposed to start low and go up!
0:09:26 > 0:09:28- 3.60?- 2.80.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Now they're offering £2.80?!
0:09:30 > 0:09:32THEY LAUGH
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Very strange!
0:09:34 > 0:09:37eventually, they settle for £3.15.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42But the Camphillian Traders are haggling with Russell on everything!
0:09:42 > 0:09:45This is 9.60. Can we get it for £9?
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Go on, then. £9.
0:09:49 > 0:09:5210.80. Can we have it for 10?
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Er...10.50?
0:09:54 > 0:09:559.90.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01this is 4.50. Can we have it for £4?
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Er...
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- 4.10?- £4.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09How much is this?
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Can we have this two-for-one?
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- OK.- Can we get this for, maybe, 90p?
0:10:16 > 0:10:19they're spending a lot of money on accessories, like...
0:10:19 > 0:10:21ribbon and film.
0:10:21 > 0:10:269.22. Can we have it for...8.80?
0:10:26 > 0:10:28- £9?- 8.80.- 8.90.
0:10:28 > 0:10:308.90. OK, yeah.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34That's quite a lot of money, Camphillian Traders.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37I hope you've enough to buy flowers!
0:10:37 > 0:10:4115 minutes later, they're still haggling and fighting with Russell
0:10:41 > 0:10:43over the pennies.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46- 4.45?- 4.40.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49- 4.43?- 4.40.
0:10:51 > 0:10:524.42?
0:10:52 > 0:10:544.40.
0:10:57 > 0:10:594.40.
0:10:59 > 0:11:00Nice work, girls.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02(Bingo!)
0:11:02 > 0:11:05The Camphillian Traders have managed to get around £20 discount
0:11:05 > 0:11:07on their flowers.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09Now THAT'S what I call haggling!
0:11:09 > 0:11:12You have to try and haggle down and stick to your guns
0:11:12 > 0:11:14and that's what they did.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Going with Russell's choices of the most popular flowers,
0:11:17 > 0:11:21the OAPs are sticking to the basics and keeping it simple.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24- How much are these?- Those are £1.40.
0:11:24 > 0:11:271.40. I think that's reasonable. We'll keep that.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31Hang on a minute, what did Oscar just say?!
0:11:31 > 0:11:35- I think that's reasonable. We'll keep that.- £1.40.- We'll just keep that.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38You're not negotiating, Oscar.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41they just accepted the price because it was cheap in the first place.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44You always try and get a discount.
0:11:46 > 0:11:51Next we've got...some roses, which are £12.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53could we get them for £11.50?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Go on, then - 11.50.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58Come on, boys. You can do better than that!
0:12:00 > 0:12:05Iris blue magic, which are 7.50. Could we get them for £7? £7.10?
0:12:05 > 0:12:09Don't push up the price before he makes a counter offer, Oscar.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13- 7.20?- Yeah, we'll go with 20. - 7.20, yep.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18- Gerberas.- Gerberas, which are £6.
0:12:18 > 0:12:23- Shall we get that lower?- Get about £5.- £5.50 for the Gerberas.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- Yeah, shall we keep that?- Yeah, do.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Next up, it's a big bunch of Gypsophilas.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33- How much is this, then? - That is £12.50.
0:12:33 > 0:12:3511.50?
0:12:37 > 0:12:38- 11.60.- 11.60, yeah.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- 11.60. Go on, then.- Yes!
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- We have a deal?- Yep.- Yep.- Yep. OK.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48The OAPs have managed to get £10 off their flowers -
0:12:48 > 0:12:52just half the Camphillian Traders' £20 discount.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56In a negotiation you've got to be persistent and cheeky,
0:12:56 > 0:13:00as I know the OAPs can be, but they haven't been in this instance.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02As a result, they've walked away, perhaps,
0:13:02 > 0:13:05with not as much discount as they could have got,
0:13:05 > 0:13:07and not as many flowers as they could have bought.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10What's this? The OAPs aren't leaving?
0:13:10 > 0:13:14Oscar's looking for some last-minute insider tips from Russell.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18What do you think would go best together?
0:13:18 > 0:13:21Er, nicest out of those, I'd say...
0:13:21 > 0:13:29a couple of roses in together with a bit of Gypsophila in the middle
0:13:29 > 0:13:33and maybe one or two Gerberas just to fill it in.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35I think that'd look quite nice.
0:13:35 > 0:13:40That's clever, Oscar - making the most of Russell's expert knowledge.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Buying is over,
0:13:42 > 0:13:46so what have the teams bought to sell on their stalls tomorrow?
0:13:47 > 0:13:51The Camphillian Traders have ten types of flowers for pick 'n' mix.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54That's £55 of their budget.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56They've gone big on packaging,
0:13:56 > 0:14:00spending £20 on ribbons, gift cards and boxes.
0:14:02 > 0:14:07The OAPs have spent £65 on just four kinds of flowers,
0:14:07 > 0:14:08and £10 on basic wrapping.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15So it's the fancily decorated pick 'n' mix of Camphillian Traders
0:14:15 > 0:14:19versus the OAPs smaller bouquets with no frills.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Now it's all about who sells best.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26Only one team will win and still be in with a chance
0:14:26 > 0:14:28of trading their way to the USA
0:14:28 > 0:14:30to become Britain's best young traders.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Let the battle commence.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Today we're here at Stratford-upon-Avon,
0:14:41 > 0:14:46birthplace of William Shakespeare, and there are thousands of visitors.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52So let's hope the Camphillian Traders and the OAPs
0:14:52 > 0:14:56have polished their acting skills, because they have to perform.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Today is all about selling.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01The team that makes the most money wins the challenge
0:15:01 > 0:15:03and has a chance of the semifinal.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07Win THAT and you'll be trading your way to the USA.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Now, are you ready to sell?
0:15:09 > 0:15:13- ALL: Yeah! - Let's go set up our stalls.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18They have just three hours to sell,
0:15:18 > 0:15:21so the pressure's on to get their stalls ready.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24How do you spell "bouquets"? B-O-U-Q-U-E-S?
0:15:24 > 0:15:27U-E-T-S.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32We need to save all the flowers.
0:15:32 > 0:15:37The OAPs are selling just four types of flowers in small bouquets,
0:15:37 > 0:15:40but they aren't sure how much to charge for them.
0:15:40 > 0:15:46- £7.- What?- 6.99.- I'll work it out. Is that a Gerbera?- Yeah.- OK.
0:15:46 > 0:15:485.50. How many are in there?
0:15:48 > 0:15:54Oscar's at it again - doing some more last-minute research.
0:15:54 > 0:15:58How much do you think you'd pay for some flowers like this?
0:15:58 > 0:16:00I'd say about...£3.50.
0:16:00 > 0:16:05- Do you think they're very nice or...? - They've very pretty, colourful.- OK.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07We got a good response and that's good.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10We know what we should be paying for it.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13How much time have we got left?
0:16:13 > 0:16:16With preparation time running out, the Camphillian Traders
0:16:16 > 0:16:18are nowhere near ready for business.
0:16:18 > 0:16:19It should keep it in place.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22We'll make some bouquets and we'll leave some for pick 'n' mix
0:16:22 > 0:16:24so people can chose their own.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28The Chrysanthemum's got too many leaves,
0:16:28 > 0:16:31so we're having trouble putting the bouquet together.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33I'm very concerned - Camphillian Traders
0:16:33 > 0:16:37have wasted a lot of their planning and preparation time
0:16:37 > 0:16:40cutting the ends of their flowers. That's totally unnecessary.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42They should have used the time
0:16:42 > 0:16:45to create their bouquets and think about their pricing.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Write "Pick 'n' mix" in big letters.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53I'm feeling a bit under pressure cos time is ticking.
0:16:58 > 0:17:04With minutes before they open, the girls decide on their prices.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08They've also some ready-made bouquets for £5.50.
0:17:08 > 0:17:13The OAPs are selling their smaller bouquets for £3.50 each.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15It's almost time for the teams to sell,
0:17:15 > 0:17:19but who's bought the right flowers to bring in the most cash?
0:17:21 > 0:17:25The prices are set, the crowds are here. It's time to trade.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26Teams, are you ready?
0:17:26 > 0:17:28ALL: Yes!
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Start selling!
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Flowers, anyone? Lovely summer flowers!
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Only today!
0:17:37 > 0:17:42It looks like the girls have got off to a great start.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Someone's just bought flowers from the girls for £5!
0:17:45 > 0:17:52Every time they sell, they're selling two of ours, effectively.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53That's quite worrying.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55With Camphillian Traders starting better,
0:17:55 > 0:17:59the OAPs decide to change tactics.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02With their lighter bouquets,
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Oscar realises he can take them to the customers.
0:18:05 > 0:18:073.50. Only today.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10- Would you like to buy any flowers? - How much are they?- 3.50.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Terrific. Thank you very much.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14'I think it's just come naturally to me.'
0:18:14 > 0:18:16I was born with the talent!
0:18:16 > 0:18:17There we go.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20The only problem selling away from the stall
0:18:20 > 0:18:22is that it's a long way back to get change!
0:18:22 > 0:18:25- Lovely.- 6.50, is that right? - That looks about right.
0:18:25 > 0:18:26HE PANTS
0:18:26 > 0:18:29The more, the better. So I've got to keep going.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Make more sales and beat the girls!
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Now it's Camphillian Traders who have slowed down!
0:18:34 > 0:18:35And I think I can see why.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Special discount!
0:18:37 > 0:18:40They've put all the beautiful flowers behind the stall
0:18:40 > 0:18:44where nobody can see them and some are getting damaged.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45That's just lost money.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50Great - someone is interested in their pick 'n' mix bouquets.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52We can do a special discount for 3.50
0:18:52 > 0:18:56for three roses and some decorations.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00This lady's looking a bit confused at all the choice.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02You can get five flowers and some decoration.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Keep it simple.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10At the OAPs' stall, Pip is nervous about going out to sell,
0:19:10 > 0:19:13so he's busy making more bouquets.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17My main job here is to wrap the flowers, as I've just started
0:19:17 > 0:19:20and to ask people who walk by if they want to buy any,
0:19:20 > 0:19:23which, so far, we haven't had any luck with.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Oscar's still selling away form the stall,
0:19:26 > 0:19:30and his tactic has been spotted by Camphillian Traders.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Look! They're making smaller bouquets as well!
0:19:33 > 0:19:35We took out a few stems to make more bouquets.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38If we have less stems, we can sell them for less.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Hopefully more people will buy them.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Camphillian Traders have a new plan -
0:19:42 > 0:19:45sell away from the stall like the OAPs.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- Would you like any flowers?- Sorry.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53- Lovely.- Thank you. - Thank you, girls. Good luck!
0:19:53 > 0:19:57But the problem with two sets of traders doing the same thing
0:19:57 > 0:19:58is that you can clash.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00OK, which is the best price, then?
0:20:00 > 0:20:04- We'll do £3.- We'll do £4.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06- £3.- £4.
0:20:06 > 0:20:12Well, I've got...£10 so if I have one of your £3
0:20:12 > 0:20:14and one of your £4.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18This lady can't decide, so she buys from both teams.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20We could do £5.
0:20:20 > 0:20:21With one hour left,
0:20:21 > 0:20:25both teams are concentrating on selling directly to the customer.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26They're very sharp.
0:20:26 > 0:20:27Thank you.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Thank you.
0:20:29 > 0:20:34We're think we're equal to the boys at the moment. We're not sure.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- What's his name?- Finlay. - Thank you, Finlay!
0:20:37 > 0:20:39If you're polite, they're more likely to buy
0:20:39 > 0:20:42because you're polite and kind and nice.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Thank you. Thank you SO much!
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Camphillian Traders have found a new lease of life!
0:20:48 > 0:20:52they've nearly sold all their flowers and it's fantastic!
0:20:52 > 0:20:53Well done, girls!
0:20:53 > 0:20:56With the Camphillian Traders all out selling,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Arjan and Pip need to help Oscar.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01- Would you like to buy some flowers? - No, thanks.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05It's not something Pip has been looking forward to.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11But look - he's out.
0:21:11 > 0:21:16- They're only £3.50.- That's good. - Go on, then. You can buy some.
0:21:16 > 0:21:17He's done it.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20- I'll get your change. - Thank you very much.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24Yesterday, I felt I wouldn't be able to sell anything to anyone.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27But I've sold two bouquets so far, so it's getting better.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Selling something to the public isn't easy,
0:21:30 > 0:21:32and it's great Pip's proved he can do it.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38And Arjan's being a persistent salesman, too.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42Find a victim... I mean customer!
0:21:45 > 0:21:49- Would you like some flowers? - No, thanks.- I need to sell them all
0:21:49 > 0:21:51so I can win a competition.
0:21:52 > 0:21:53- Yes?- Yeah.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Thank you.
0:21:55 > 0:21:59Money box really coming in handy.
0:21:59 > 0:22:03It's a great help to Oscar, who's just sold this man three bouquets.
0:22:03 > 0:22:08I sold three bouquets for 5.50. We just need to sell them.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11It looks like the boys will do anything to sell.
0:22:11 > 0:22:16# We're selling you flowers Cos we wanna win. #
0:22:16 > 0:22:18- £3.- £3 change?
0:22:18 > 0:22:20- Come on.- £3.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Thanks.
0:22:21 > 0:22:22Thank you.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25Thank you so much.
0:22:25 > 0:22:29We've shifted almost all of our flowers. We've got a few roses left.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32But what's going on here?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35There's an opportunity for the girls to get more stock.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39A man who bought three bouquets off Oscar decided he doesn't want them.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40Thank you.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44You've just bought some flowers from the boys and sold them to the girls?
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Did you make any money?
0:22:47 > 0:22:48No.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50It's a good job you're not on our show -
0:22:50 > 0:22:52you wouldn't be going to the USA!
0:22:52 > 0:22:53THEY LAUGH
0:22:53 > 0:22:59It doesn't take Jess long to sell them, making another £2.25 profit.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00OK, let's go.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03Everything has to go, everything's on a discount now!
0:23:03 > 0:23:04They're only 3.30.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11With just ten minutes to go, it's neck-and-neck,
0:23:11 > 0:23:15as both teams are going all-out to tempt people to buy.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19But with no flowers left, the Camphillian Traders
0:23:19 > 0:23:22are now stuck with boxes and gift cards that haven't sold.
0:23:22 > 0:23:23Shall we sell the boxes?
0:23:23 > 0:23:27That's great - Jade's selling off the boxes and gift cards,
0:23:27 > 0:23:30which may make all the difference between winning and losing.
0:23:30 > 0:23:31Let's sell it.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35It's now a race to the finish line -
0:23:35 > 0:23:38the teams use their last few minutes to sell everything they have.
0:23:38 > 0:23:39Thank you.
0:23:41 > 0:23:4378, how about that?
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- That's a bonus. We don't want change.- Oh, thank you!
0:23:45 > 0:23:48I'll take the box and the ribbon, please.
0:23:48 > 0:23:49There you go.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Selling time is over!
0:23:58 > 0:23:59It's been a tight competition,
0:23:59 > 0:24:04'but it's now time to find out who's taken the most money.'
0:24:06 > 0:24:09The winners today could go through to the big New York final,
0:24:09 > 0:24:11where they'll compete against another team
0:24:11 > 0:24:14to be named Britain's best young traders.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19OAPs, Camphillian Traders, your selling day is over,
0:24:19 > 0:24:21it's been very busy.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23What did you enjoy about today?
0:24:23 > 0:24:28I just enjoyed the whole selling part and when we got near the end,
0:24:28 > 0:24:32I really enjoyed having to get the best bargain.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Going up to people and seeing how they react to you.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40- You were really persistent.- Yeah. - Why? Are you always persistent?
0:24:40 > 0:24:44Not always. It's my first time doing something like this.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47Yesterday I thought, we'll never sell anything but we sold lots
0:24:47 > 0:24:48and I was really happy.
0:24:48 > 0:24:53Well done. It's something you didn't want to do, but you did try.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Excellent. What about you, Camphillian Traders?
0:24:55 > 0:24:58I found the last part more interesting.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01We were selling more bargains and selling cheaper so more people came.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05that's when we sold the most flowers - we sold out.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08We had a few "did that really happen?" moments
0:25:08 > 0:25:10when we sold the box and ribbon.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Well done. That's clever selling.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Teams, remember, whoever makes the most money wins
0:25:15 > 0:25:18and has the chance at the semifinal.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Win THAT and you'll be trading your way to the USA.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25the losing team will be eliminated.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Camphillian Traders.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31You took...
0:25:32 > 0:25:33..£82.18.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40OAPs.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42You took...
0:25:50 > 0:25:54- £86...- YES! YES!
0:25:54 > 0:25:56OAPS CHEER
0:25:58 > 0:25:59I am feeling amazing.
0:25:59 > 0:26:03I feel so happy and glad that we've won this round.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07Fantastic! That was very, very close.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11The girls were really good traders and it was close - like £3 off.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Camphillian Traders, have you enjoyed yourselves?
0:26:15 > 0:26:16ALL: Yeah.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19Listen, I know you lost but you did turn it around
0:26:19 > 0:26:21and that's what matters. Well done.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25To win this is just amazing!
0:26:25 > 0:26:28I feel like we're one step closer to the USA.
0:26:30 > 0:26:36So the OAPs have won. With the £75, they took £86.98.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39That's an £11.98 profit.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43And they're the first team to go up on the leaderboard.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Only the four winning teams who make the most money
0:26:48 > 0:26:50get through to the semifinals.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54The two best teams will go on to compete in the grand New York final.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Trade your way to the USA!
0:27:00 > 0:27:06Who will become Britain's best young traders?
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Next time on Trade Your Way To The USA...
0:27:10 > 0:27:13two teams battle it out in a medieval challenge.
0:27:14 > 0:27:1710p for a flag. 10p for a hammer.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21- Will it be all that glitters for a princess... - Buy one tiara, you get one free.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24..or hats to fill a king's royal court?
0:27:24 > 0:27:26Suits you.
