0:01:38 > 0:01:40Trade Your Way To The USA is back,

0:01:40 > 0:01:42and this time, it's even tougher.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Today we're putting some of Britain's most dynamic

0:01:45 > 0:01:49and determined young traders to the ultimate business test.

0:01:49 > 0:01:54Time to meet the two teams bold enough to take on today's task.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56It's Boundary Breakers

0:01:56 > 0:01:57versus Determination.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Boundary Breakers are best friends,

0:02:02 > 0:02:03Antoine, Devandra and Jack.

0:02:04 > 0:02:09These psychic salesmen reckon they have it all sewn up.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11We break boundaries in selling, negotiation,

0:02:11 > 0:02:13and customer satisfaction.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15We can practically read each other's minds

0:02:15 > 0:02:16to know when there's a good deal on.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20Their sixth sense for selling puts these boys ahead of the game.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22We've already started making money.

0:02:22 > 0:02:23We have an online business.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26From selling old cameras to old clothes.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30Drumming up trade for Boundary Breakers is Devandra.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Playing drums is my game, making money stimulates my brain.

0:02:33 > 0:02:34There is no question.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Boundary Breakers ARE going to win this competition.

0:02:37 > 0:02:41Once Antoine gets his skates on, there's no stopping him selling.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43My team-mates call me "the Persuader"

0:02:43 > 0:02:45because I bring the people in

0:02:45 > 0:02:47and make sure they get what they want.

0:02:47 > 0:02:48It's all about thinking fast,

0:02:48 > 0:02:52standing on your feet and rolling in the money.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55These boundary-breaking boys mean business...

0:02:55 > 0:02:57A message to our opposition.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59ALL: You're going down!

0:02:59 > 0:03:02..but they haven't met Determination yet.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04ALL: We're Team Determination,

0:03:04 > 0:03:07and we're going to trade our way to the USA. Whoo!

0:03:08 > 0:03:13This talented London trio of Chloe, Alice, and Jasmine

0:03:13 > 0:03:15hope their entrepreneurial experience

0:03:15 > 0:03:17will see them succeed.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19I've made money by selling books online.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21I've made money by doing car-boot sales.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24And together, we hope to build a fruit juice enterprise.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Mmm, delicious!

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Team Determination can win because we've all had practice

0:03:29 > 0:03:31in the past and we're going to fight to the finish.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35Team leader Alice wants to draw on all her skills to win.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Art is my love, but my passion is trading.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Hoping to strike the right chord with the customers is Jasmine.

0:03:41 > 0:03:45I'm the brains of the team. I love calculating and making profit.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48I may be the quietest, but I know how to pull the strings.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52Last up, confident Chloe believes her dancing skills

0:03:52 > 0:03:54will make her dollar bills.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57I know the right moves to bring the customers in.

0:03:57 > 0:03:58Boundary Breakers, beware!

0:03:58 > 0:04:01These girls are determined to win.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04Our message to our opposition.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06- Good luck!- You're going to need it!

0:04:06 > 0:04:10It's Determination versus Boundary Breakers.

0:04:10 > 0:04:14But only the team that makes the most money wins the challenge

0:04:14 > 0:04:18and only THEY stand a chance of trading their way to the USA.

0:04:24 > 0:04:28Today's teams have arrived in London with no idea

0:04:28 > 0:04:30what their trading challenge will be.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32All they know is they need to win here

0:04:32 > 0:04:36to stand a chance of competing in our USA grand final.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48Welcome to London's Docklands and to the Super Comic Convention.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51We're here at the ExCel Centre.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53This weekend, thousands of people

0:04:53 > 0:04:55are visiting a two-day extravaganza,

0:04:55 > 0:05:00celebrating the greatest superheroes of all time.

0:05:00 > 0:05:04Your challenge is to sell them superhero cookies.

0:05:04 > 0:05:09You'll get to negotiate the lowest prices and then sell, sell, sell.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13The team that makes the most money wins the challenge.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Here's your trading fund.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17I've given each team £75

0:05:17 > 0:05:19to trade with.

0:05:25 > 0:05:29Boundary Breakers, Determination, are you ready?

0:05:29 > 0:05:30- ALL: Yes! - Let's go!

0:05:37 > 0:05:39With £75 firmly in hand,

0:05:39 > 0:05:42it's time to meet cookie creator Alli Cardona.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44After years in the baking business

0:05:44 > 0:05:46there's nothing Alli doesn't know

0:05:46 > 0:05:49about turning soft dough into hard cash.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53When you start a new business, the most important thing

0:05:53 > 0:05:56is to understand the product you're selling.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59I have brought you here to meet your expert, Alli.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01She knows a lot about cookies.

0:06:01 > 0:06:06Here are your books and your hats and aprons.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10Remember, asking the right questions now is crucial,

0:06:10 > 0:06:14and will determine whether you win or lose this competition.

0:06:14 > 0:06:15Are you ready?

0:06:15 > 0:06:17- ALL: Yes! - Let's go.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Alli's created a special range of comic-book cookies

0:06:20 > 0:06:22for the teams to choose from.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24They have just 15 minutes to learn all they can

0:06:24 > 0:06:28about the biscuit business before they decide what to buy.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31Hi, guys. I believe you've got some questions for me.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34Which design would you say sells the best?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Jasmine, excellent to establish the bestsellers.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38That'll help you when you are buying.

0:06:38 > 0:06:42In my experience, people do like value for money,

0:06:42 > 0:06:45so a larger cookie, even though it's sometimes less expensive,

0:06:45 > 0:06:47might sell better than a smaller one

0:06:47 > 0:06:49that is more intricately decorated.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51Is there a certain market for these sorts of cookies?

0:06:51 > 0:06:53You need to think very much about your market.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55The event you're at tomorrow...

0:06:55 > 0:06:57It's probably going to be more males.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00It's probably going to be more male-orientated, yes.

0:07:00 > 0:07:01Great question, Jack.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04You must always think about who's going to buy your product.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07How much would you sell the superheroes for?

0:07:07 > 0:07:09I would suggest testing your market

0:07:09 > 0:07:13and going in as high as you think might be appropriate.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15I would probably sell them between £3 and £4.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19Retail price established, excellent!

0:07:19 > 0:07:21How much would you sell the cookies to us for?

0:07:21 > 0:07:24Well, there's going to be a range of prices.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26They start around £1.70

0:07:26 > 0:07:28and they go up to £2.30.

0:07:28 > 0:07:32However, if you use your budget to order more of one design,

0:07:32 > 0:07:34then I will be negotiable on price.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Alli is giving them some really good tips here.

0:07:37 > 0:07:38She's saying buy in bulk

0:07:38 > 0:07:40to get the best prices,

0:07:40 > 0:07:41I hope they're listening.

0:07:41 > 0:07:44OK, teams, your time for questioning is up.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Now you have to decide which designs you're going to buy.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Follow me.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55If I was doing this task, I'd take Alli's advice -

0:07:55 > 0:07:59buy in bulk, keep it simple but make it fun and colourful.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01So what are the girls going to do?

0:08:01 > 0:08:04OK, which are the best two there, do you think?

0:08:04 > 0:08:07Well, in the comic festival there's usually men.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10The ones that are more masculine look really good.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13- I think we should pick this one. - Yeah.- Yeah.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15OK, Determination, lots of talking going on,

0:08:15 > 0:08:17but what are you going to buy?

0:08:17 > 0:08:19We're thinking of buying these words.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Why have you gone for the words?

0:08:21 > 0:08:24They pop up in comic books and we are going to a comic festival

0:08:24 > 0:08:27so it is going to appeal to, like, our audience.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29So who's going to be the key negotiator?

0:08:29 > 0:08:32Alice, because she's really hardcore with negotiating

0:08:32 > 0:08:34and she always puts her foot down.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Hardcore! Are you hardcore?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39When it comes to haggling I know what I'm talking about.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41You do? What if you don't get what you want?

0:08:41 > 0:08:44I don't think that's going to happen.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47Fighting talk from Determination.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50What about the boys?

0:08:50 > 0:08:54OK, guys, in terms of teamwork, what is your key strength?

0:08:54 > 0:08:56We can practically read each other's minds

0:08:56 > 0:08:59- and we know when there's a deal coming.- Oh, psychic?

0:08:59 > 0:09:00Yes, pretty much.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03Blimey, I would like to see that in action! Fantastic!

0:09:03 > 0:09:06You sound very confident and you have got an added skill -

0:09:06 > 0:09:07you can read somebody's mind.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10You shouldn't have a problem, really. Good luck.

0:09:10 > 0:09:11Neeoooow!

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Boundary Breakers are sure

0:09:13 > 0:09:16their superpowers will get the best prices.

0:09:16 > 0:09:20Determination reckon tough talking will get them the deals.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24But it's down to who can negotiate the best prices for their cookies.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31This is the most important negotiation

0:09:31 > 0:09:32the teams have ever faced.

0:09:32 > 0:09:37To win tomorrow's trading challenge, they must get the best deals today.

0:09:37 > 0:09:40But that means getting the better of cookie queen Alli.

0:09:40 > 0:09:44First up, it's Determination.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46We're going to start with the words,

0:09:46 > 0:09:48the "Boom!", "Pow!" and "Kapow!"

0:09:48 > 0:09:53We want 35 words starting at 90p for each one of them.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55No compliments, no handshakes.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57This is hard-nosed!

0:10:03 > 0:10:05I like that you've gone for volume.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08It makes it much easier for us in production

0:10:08 > 0:10:10and we can do that at 90p.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12OK, thank you.

0:10:12 > 0:10:18We would like to get 20 of these Muscular Mikes for £1 each.

0:10:18 > 0:10:19That's too low.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22There's a lot of work in this man here.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24You need to think a bit more about that one.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26I can't go as low as that on him.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28£1.05?

0:10:28 > 0:10:30You need to be quite a bit higher than that.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32But we are buying 20 off you

0:10:32 > 0:10:37and...if we moved up to...

0:10:37 > 0:10:41£1.20, then that would give you a profit of £24 from us.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45If you move up to 25 cookies,

0:10:45 > 0:10:48I can do them for £1.40 for you.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58I think 25 is reasonable.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01- Yes.- OK. - So 25 cookies at £1.40 each?

0:11:01 > 0:11:03- Yes.- OK.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Well done, girls! Thinking on your feet.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07The more you buy, the less you pay.

0:11:07 > 0:11:12So far, the girls have spent £66.50 and got 60 cookies.

0:11:12 > 0:11:17Could we get nine faces for 90p each?

0:11:23 > 0:11:25I can't do nine faces at 90p each.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27You've got £8.50 left.

0:11:27 > 0:11:28Let's see what we can do for that.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39I can do five faces for £8.50.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41- Shall we do five?- Yeah, let's do it.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44- Yep.- OK.- Are we happy with that?

0:11:44 > 0:11:45- Yep.- I'm very happy.

0:11:45 > 0:11:5065...70...75.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52- Lovely. Thank you very much. - Thank you.

0:11:52 > 0:11:56- Nice doing business with you. - Pleasure doing business with you.

0:11:56 > 0:12:00Determination bargained hard, and got great deals.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Can Boundary Breakers' superpowers negotiate a better result?

0:12:10 > 0:12:13As you can see, these are all the cookies we have chosen,

0:12:13 > 0:12:16and I've decided we are going to start with the words.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18We would like...

0:12:18 > 0:12:19- 15?- 17.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21- 17, sorry.- 15, OK.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25- 15 cookies...- For £25.

0:12:31 > 0:12:35I can do them for £25.50 for you.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40- Do you want to do that?- £25.50, OK.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42£25.50.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44That's £1.70 per cookie!

0:12:44 > 0:12:47The girls spent just 90 pence!

0:12:47 > 0:12:49I thought we were supposed to be negotiating.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52There's not a lot of that going on at the moment!

0:12:52 > 0:12:58Um, for the hero, we would like, er, 14 for £20.

0:12:58 > 0:13:0014...

0:13:04 > 0:13:06You're a bit far away on that one, boys.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08You need to do a bit better.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11I'd be looking at more like £26 for 14 of those.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14- What about ten?- Yeah, ten for £20?

0:13:19 > 0:13:22I can do that. Ten for £20 is done.

0:13:24 > 0:13:25OK, face cookies.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Can we have 12 faces for £14.50?

0:13:29 > 0:13:3112 faces...

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Again, boys, you need to do a bit better on that one.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45I would be looking more like £20 for 12 faces.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Ten, yeah. Ten for £15?

0:13:48 > 0:13:50I can do ten faces...

0:13:53 > 0:13:55..for £16.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57£15.50?

0:14:02 > 0:14:03£15.50.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05- Yeah, OK.- Sure.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07Good negotiating, boys!

0:14:07 > 0:14:09That's £1.55 per face.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12A better deal than the girls.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14We have got, like, 14...

0:14:14 > 0:14:16(14, 15...)

0:14:16 > 0:14:19- What have we done?- £41. - We've done the words...

0:14:19 > 0:14:21So we've spent...

0:14:21 > 0:14:23You've got £61 at the moment.

0:14:23 > 0:14:27Their mind-reading superpowers seem to have deserted them!

0:14:27 > 0:14:29I hope they're not going to fall apart.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32- So we will spend it... - We want more heroes.

0:14:32 > 0:14:33So you're going to do for this guy?

0:14:33 > 0:14:37- Yeah. How many would you be willing to give us?- For...?- For £14?

0:14:44 > 0:14:46You can have seven.

0:14:46 > 0:14:50Seven of these, plus one crumbly cookie that we can crumble up?

0:14:50 > 0:14:53Yes, I can give you some taster samples. Yes, that's fine.

0:14:53 > 0:14:54OK, sure.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56- Are we all done, boys?- Yes.

0:14:56 > 0:15:0065, 70, and £75. There you go.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Pleasure doing business with you.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07For their £75 cash,

0:15:07 > 0:15:10Boundary Breakers got 42 biscuits.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12That's 15 word cookies,

0:15:12 > 0:15:1410 faces, and 17 superheroes.

0:15:17 > 0:15:18For their £75,

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Determination got 65 cookies -

0:15:21 > 0:15:2323 more than the boys.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25That's 35 words, 5 faces

0:15:25 > 0:15:27and 25 superheroes.

0:15:27 > 0:15:31Now it's all down to who can convert those cookies

0:15:31 > 0:15:32into the most cash.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35Tomorrow, the victors will soar through the sky.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38For the others it's back down to earth with a splat!

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Today Boundary Breakers take on Determination.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51Both will do anything to win and get the chance to compete

0:15:51 > 0:15:55in our Trade Your Way To The USA grand final.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58The team that makes the most money today is one step closer

0:15:58 > 0:16:01to becoming Britain's best young traders.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Good morning, Boundary Breakers. Good morning, Determination.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13In a few hours' time,

0:16:13 > 0:16:17thousands of people will be visiting the Super Comic Convention.

0:16:17 > 0:16:23You have just two hours to sell them your scrumptious superhero cookies.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25- Teams, are you ready? - ALL: Yes!

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Let's set up the stalls.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31The teams need to get their stalls set up

0:16:31 > 0:16:34and their prices fixed before they can start trading.

0:16:34 > 0:16:40Determination's comic book cookies go from £3 to £3.50.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44Boundary Breakers' go from £2.75 to £3.60.

0:16:44 > 0:16:45That's it, we're done!

0:16:49 > 0:16:50Now they've just got to sell them!

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Teams, are you ready?!

0:16:56 > 0:16:57ALL: Yes!

0:16:57 > 0:16:59Three, two, one...

0:16:59 > 0:17:03- start selling! - KLAXON HOOTS

0:17:03 > 0:17:07Both teams have two hours to sell as many cookies as they can.

0:17:07 > 0:17:11Shall I try and get people in? Cos there's not many people here.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13Hello, can I interest you in buying

0:17:13 > 0:17:15- some superhero, comic book cookies? - No.- OK.

0:17:15 > 0:17:19£3.60 and then £2.75.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Selling is a game of numbers.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Would you like some cookies?

0:17:23 > 0:17:28The more people you approach, the more likely you'll get a sale.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Let's call out.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32You want to call out?

0:17:32 > 0:17:35"Superhero cookies."

0:17:35 > 0:17:38The boys' confidence seems to have deserted them.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41Looks to me like their energy has been zapped!

0:17:41 > 0:17:4420 metres away, it's a different story.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47Hello, can I interest you in buying some comic book or superhero cookies?

0:17:47 > 0:17:50These ones cost £3 and these cost £3.50.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53Five minutes in, Alice starts selling...

0:17:53 > 0:17:56OK, and I'll give you your £2 change.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59..and doesn't stop. This girl is good!

0:17:59 > 0:18:02'But it's a different story back at the stall,'

0:18:02 > 0:18:04where the rest of Determination

0:18:04 > 0:18:06seem, well, less determined.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10- Smiles and be enthusiastic, OK?- Yep. - OK, good.- Bye.- Bye!

0:18:10 > 0:18:14Hello, can I interest you in buying some superhero... >

0:18:14 > 0:18:15'We're getting a few sales.'

0:18:15 > 0:18:18I think we have to be more enthusiastic about the product.

0:18:18 > 0:18:22And Alice is getting quite a lot of sales by going round.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24Superhero cookies!

0:18:24 > 0:18:27They've got to do better than this.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31Determination. OK, I have been watching you for a while

0:18:31 > 0:18:34and I have to say, you look like you're not bothered,

0:18:34 > 0:18:35people don't know what you're selling.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38- Shall I show you what you're supposed to be doing?- Yeah.

0:18:38 > 0:18:42LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE HAVE SUPERHERO COOKIES HERE TODAY!

0:18:42 > 0:18:45A once-in-a-lifetime chance to buy! Thank you.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47To me, that is selling.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Standing here like this...

0:18:49 > 0:18:51See the difference?

0:18:51 > 0:18:54BOTH: MUSCULAR MIKE ON SALE HERE!

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Come and get your Muscular Mikes here!

0:18:56 > 0:18:58Thank you, thank you.

0:18:58 > 0:18:59- Thank you!- Thank you!

0:18:59 > 0:19:04With the girls in overdrive, how are Boundary Breakers are doing?

0:19:04 > 0:19:06And this is £3.50.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Very expensive but, still...I admit.

0:19:09 > 0:19:10Oh, no!

0:19:10 > 0:19:12You don't need a mind-reading superpower

0:19:12 > 0:19:15to tell Boundary Breakers are in big trouble.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17- SOFTLY:- Cookies!

0:19:17 > 0:19:20Boundary Breakers, OK.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23I don't see any boundaries being broken here,

0:19:23 > 0:19:27and secondly, you've got the gift of the gab, but not today.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29I don't know what's happened to you.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31I thought you were quite cheeky and confident,

0:19:31 > 0:19:34but all of a sudden, in front of your customers, you're like this.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38You need to get together, break some boundaries,

0:19:38 > 0:19:40and let me hear you speak.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42- HE CALLS OUT LOUDER - Superhero cookies!

0:19:42 > 0:19:43Superhero cookies!

0:19:43 > 0:19:46£2.75. So if you give me... OK, thank you!

0:19:46 > 0:19:48That is £5.50 altogether.

0:19:48 > 0:19:49Thank you!

0:19:49 > 0:19:52OK, I'll go for one of those.

0:19:52 > 0:19:53Thank you.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55The boys are finally selling.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58Now they've got some catching up to do.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Can I interest you in some superhero and comic book cookies?

0:20:01 > 0:20:04- Of course! Ooh, I want one that says, "Kapow!"- OK!

0:20:04 > 0:20:06Alice is amazing.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09This girl is really on fire.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11It's fun to talk to people, to run around,

0:20:11 > 0:20:13and have the adrenaline rush through you.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15It's going great, I am really happy.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17We need to push the Muscular Mikes and get them all sold.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20That will be £6.50.

0:20:20 > 0:20:21Thank you.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23Enjoy your Muscular Mike and have a fantastic day.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Thank you. Enjoy Muscular Mike and have a great day.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28There you go. Enjoy him.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30£3.60. OK, 10p change. There you go.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32Thank you.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35Unbelievably, only 45 minutes in,

0:20:35 > 0:20:38and the girls have almost sold out.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42We have one more Muscular Mike left and my pocket is full of money!

0:20:42 > 0:20:43Alice, the final one?

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Now, how much are you selling your last cookie for?

0:20:46 > 0:20:48We're going to try and sell him for £4.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50Why go for £4?

0:20:50 > 0:20:52I might try and sell him for £6.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55Take your time and enjoy the sell.

0:20:56 > 0:20:57OK.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00Instead, Alice can't resist a bit of showing off.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04Get your horsemeat-free cookies! Over here, not over there!

0:21:04 > 0:21:06I'm just letting you know that this is our final cookie.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10I'm going to wish you all the best of luck. You're really going to need it.

0:21:10 > 0:21:11- But anyway...enjoy!- Thank you!

0:21:11 > 0:21:16Alice, Alice! Remember The tortoise and the hare.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18Remember, the boys do have a lot of stock left

0:21:18 > 0:21:22and if they realise you nearly sold out, they could up their prices.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25- They could. - So you need to think about that.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28This is all about how much money you can make.

0:21:28 > 0:21:29OK, new strategy.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32And upping their prices is exactly what the boys do.

0:21:32 > 0:21:36Increase these two prices. I reckon this could be the difference.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38People may think it's stupid,

0:21:38 > 0:21:40but all great ideas sound stupid at first.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43When George Stephenson first invented the train,

0:21:43 > 0:21:47people thought it was bad for humans to go over 12mph.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50My heart is racing. I just need to sell this final cookie for £6.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52- How much is he?- It costs £6.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54HE LAUGHS

0:21:54 > 0:21:56We really need to sell him, so could you give us £6?

0:21:56 > 0:21:59- There you go.- You won't regret it. I'm sure you'll enjoy him.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02Thank you so much. Have a nice day. Yes!

0:22:02 > 0:22:06With 25 minutes left, Alice sells her final cookie.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08She is a brilliant saleswoman.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10But this isn't over.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12The boys have time on their side,

0:22:12 > 0:22:16if they can get it together and really start selling.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19You know, if I was here at a Super Comic Convention

0:22:19 > 0:22:22and I was finding it hard to sell my cookies,

0:22:22 > 0:22:27I'd find a superhero to stand by my stall and help me sell.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Have you got any superpowers?

0:22:33 > 0:22:35- The power to sell.- Go on, do it.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Anyone for cookies? Come on! Cookies!

0:22:40 > 0:22:44Would you like to buy some superhero cookies? Yeah? You would.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48- Oh, thank you. - Goodbye!- Thanks very much!

0:22:49 > 0:22:52We're really getting into the deals, we know how to sell now.

0:22:52 > 0:22:53It's really good.

0:22:53 > 0:22:55Thank you, that's £3.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58With minutes to go, the boys are into their stride,

0:22:58 > 0:23:01and all the girls can do is watch.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03We're a little bit nervous, actually.

0:23:03 > 0:23:07So you don't know whether you may have won or not right now?

0:23:07 > 0:23:09- Yeah, we're really unsure. - 50/50 chance.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Another happy customer! Thank you!

0:23:11 > 0:23:14£3.50, please. I'll give you both of them for £5.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17- Oh, that's great, even better! - Thank you.- Good luck.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19You don't look confident. You are focused on the boys, aren't you?

0:23:19 > 0:23:22- Yes.- Let's see what happens.

0:23:22 > 0:23:26There's seconds to go, and the boys have one last cookie to sell.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29Are you interested in buying a superhero cookie?

0:23:29 > 0:23:32- Last cookie of the day. - Superhero cookie. Last one!

0:23:34 > 0:23:35It's £3.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38- Ten, nine...- Thank you! Go,- go!

0:23:40 > 0:23:44..five, four, three, two...

0:23:44 > 0:23:48- Yes!- ..one, stop trading!- I'm happy! - Let's eat our free samples!

0:23:48 > 0:23:50- KLAXON Oh, yes!- That was sick!

0:23:55 > 0:24:00Determination, can I have your cash tin. Good luck.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03- Where are your cookies? - We sold out, last minute.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06No way! Well done!

0:24:06 > 0:24:09- Excellent! How do you feel? - Really chuffed, really happy.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11Yeah? You think you sold them at the right prices?

0:24:11 > 0:24:15- Yes.- OK, well, listen, cash-tin time.- Yeah.- OK.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19Good luck.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21This is painful!

0:24:32 > 0:24:36Both teams have put superhuman effort into selling their cookies,

0:24:36 > 0:24:39but only one team can win.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43Is it Determination or Boundary Breakers who made the most dough,

0:24:43 > 0:24:47and are in with a chance of trading their way to the USA?

0:24:47 > 0:24:49Determination, Boundary Breakers.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53We're here in Level 39 in Canary Wharf,

0:24:53 > 0:24:55a hub for start-up entrepreneurs.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58I've been watching your entrepreneurial skills

0:24:58 > 0:25:01for the last two days, and I have to say I have been very impressed

0:25:01 > 0:25:03with what I've seen.

0:25:03 > 0:25:08Over 2,000 young traders applied to be in your position.

0:25:08 > 0:25:13Only 14 teams made it through. You should be very proud of yourselves.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16The team that makes the most money wins the challenge,

0:25:16 > 0:25:20and only THEY stand a chance of going to the grand final

0:25:20 > 0:25:25in the USA, and becoming Britain's Best Young Traders.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27The cash has been counted.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32Boundary Breakers, you took...

0:25:37 > 0:25:40..£136.75.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42Well done.

0:25:42 > 0:25:46Determination, you took...

0:25:51 > 0:25:54..£210.60!

0:25:54 > 0:25:56- THEY SCREAM - Congratulations!

0:25:56 > 0:26:00'We just won! I can't believe it.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02'Cos they were so good,'

0:26:02 > 0:26:05and they were so, like...

0:26:05 > 0:26:09- Yeah, oh... I just can't believe it! - Speechless.- Pretty much.

0:26:09 > 0:26:13We got to trade in a real place with real people and real money,

0:26:13 > 0:26:15and it was a great experience, really.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17I feel sorry for Boundary Breakers,

0:26:17 > 0:26:20purely because we've got really close to them

0:26:20 > 0:26:23and they seem really nice, so we're going to win it for them.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26- Well done.- Well done, guys. - You did great.

0:26:26 > 0:26:27You are today's winners,

0:26:27 > 0:26:30and it gives you a place on our leaderboard.

0:26:30 > 0:26:34The question is, have you made enough to put you in the top four?

0:26:35 > 0:26:39Because only those four teams will fight it out in the semifinals.

0:26:39 > 0:26:45So, Determination's £210.60 puts them in first place,

0:26:45 > 0:26:47knocking Victores into second,

0:26:47 > 0:26:50and New To The Business are taken out of the running.

0:26:50 > 0:26:54But will Top Dogs hold on to fourth place in the final heat?

0:27:00 > 0:27:04Business takes inspiration from great leaders the world over.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07As Winston Churchill, one of our most famous Prime Ministers,

0:27:07 > 0:27:13once said - never, never, never give up.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16That's exactly what our winning team demonstrated today

0:27:16 > 0:27:19and it's well worth remembering,

0:27:19 > 0:27:22if you want to trade your way to the USA.

0:27:22 > 0:27:27Next time on Trade Your Way To The USA, two more teams do battle.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30Frozen yoghurt for sale!

0:27:30 > 0:27:33Anyone want frozen yoghurt? Go up there - much cheaper!

0:27:33 > 0:27:34We need to lower our price.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37Three for £1! Three for £1!
