If housemates perform to Big Brother’s satisfaction they will receive a luxury shopping budget of £5 per head per day.

DAY 2

For the second part of the task, Housemates must play-away a luxury shopping budget of £280 on slot machines.

In order to pass this week’s shopping task, housemates will have two hours in which to lose all £280.

Big Brother will provide Housemates with £280 in 10p coins. Each Housemate will receive a pot containing 350 x 10p coins.

If housemates have any coins left after the two hours, housemates will fail the entire task and will receive a basic shopping budget of £1 per head per day.

If housemates successfully play-away all the coins and any winnings within the two hours, then housemates will pass this week’s shopping task and receive a luxury shopping budget of £5 per head per day.
