wondering how much to take?

Hi, im joining slimming world tomorrow and was wondering how much cash to take with me for books and stuff?
I can't find any info online about it and i dont want to turn up with too little.
Thanks

It's £9.95 in total to join at the minute.

That gets you the books. Maybe take £20
That way you could buy bars/cookbook
If you wanted to

Oh fab, thank you!
I wasnt sure if they were included in the fee, v much looking forward to going so didnt want to come back without anything i needed.

Everything you need is included, but they sell bars, recipe books and magazines - there's no hard sell though, but if you might want them them take extra.

They also do countdowns which are 6 weeks of group for the price of 6 or 12 for 10 - so worth doing if you have the money.

They also do a raffle at 10 pence a ticket, but you get a free ticket on your first night.

If you're looking for a good book to get they have just released a book of all the favourites on the plan, and that's quite a good starting point though to be honest it's fairly straightforward to use normal recipes once you get your head around it. It's just a case of cutting out oils, choosing lean meat etc.
Good luck for today! Onwards and upwards (or maybe downwards would be more appropriate )

I didnt really have time to look at the books for sale today, spending my evening reading my pack and writing a shopping list!
Thank you, yes down is what im hoping for
