just got a quad pack of the internet £39.00, 1 day delivery ordered them on monday and the arrived today at 9.00am. very pleased with them and the service.
saw some in asda for £15 and the thing withh all these radios is they work on line of site so if there is a lot of hills or buildings to block the signal then the range needs to be adjusted to your surroundings we have the same problem at work with ours if we are behind a lot of buildings the reception is real poor

we got three binatone walkie talkies at our local cheapie super market a while back, 8 channel ones, used them last time we went camping, ideal if the kids wanted to exploir, we could keep in contact, would recommend them.
They are good the range in the open was really good and cause they are digital you dont get the old interferance I could always get me old handheld midland cbs out the loft would have saved some money cor those were the days
we bought our daughter some for her birthday and she has to wrestle them off us now!!!!! great fun and very useful but mind what you say, someone could be listening in!!!!
Have just boought 2 Binatone MR200's to use to help my young children (4 and 7) feel safe on a campsite' They seem to work ok. However it has just occured to me that they may not be very safe for the children to use, in the same way that mobile phones arent?
The instructions warn of the dangers of radio frequency exposure!
nope they not in the mobile phone range and much safer.
right seeing everyone got em, if u all on site and there only 8 channels its going to be fun, who what heh err
me off to buy digical ones get away form the analog chatter.
Just make sure you tell the kids not to change channels so that they can chat to new found friends on site. This is what our son did - resulting in us racing around the site to find him when he didn't respond to our calls!!!!
They're also quite useful when reversing/manouevring a caravan - one person radios guidance from behind the caravan and the car driver can hear clearly from inside the car.
