Pupils from Boston's Haven High School at the town's Asda supermarket as part of McVities' Big Sum competition. Haven High had teamed up with the store in the hope of winning a computer for the school through the competition. The more 12-packs of McVities' Hula Hoops sold in store, the greater the chance that Haven High would win the kit. As part of the competition, pupils also had to work out the volumes of crisps sold by looking at sales figures. Pictured are pupils Vicki Poelstra, Natalie Hudson, Martin Moon and Freddie Jewell.
