With conventional bikes now banned by some train operators a stylish light-weight, fold-up Brompton S2L-X is the way forward. But it's not exactly a snip at £966 from Bicycledoctor.co.uk. Can you find it cheaper?

Tell us about it here, and we'll give the best tipster a case of wine courtesy of Virgin Money. Other versions are available but we're looking for the S2L-X model. Happy hunting!

Well done to tigerwuds with his or her bargain Tanita body-fat monitor. Wine on its way to you.

Shopping tips and more about this Challenge to be found here.

A question for 4Money Editor about Tanita 'Innerscan' Body Composition Monitor BC-532: since when 80 pounds is more expensive than 91? I found it for 80 (including shipping) on the german market who send it also to UK, so how come the person who found it for 91 is rewarded! A bit unfair i would say! Waiting for a reply!

Okay but i feel a but sorry for moosy who had it spotted on ebay days before, i personaly don't think i agree with using ebay for these competions because the item is'nt available but tigurwoods did spot one on scalesexpress at £99.99. i think we should be taken out of a hat!

I spotted it not on ebay, but on german website and for 80 pounds, not like 91 as the winner. Still waiting for a reply from the Editor!

Hey, thanks for your comments moosy. Please can we stick to websites that give prices in pounds and pence. We don't want to go down the currency conversion route. Good luck with the bike challenge.

Well it should be mentioned somewhere then, don't you think so? And is it is not (i was looking, but didn't find it anywhere) i think it's quite unfair what happened

This isn't something we've come across with the other challenges. Have now added best deals in pounds and pence please to the bike challenge article.

It should have been stated in the previous challenge as well and as it wasn't, i still think there should be another winner than tigerwuds

Dear Editor,
From now on I will be more than happy to offer deals in pounds only.
However, I came to a conclusion, that what happened in a previous challenge is highly unacceptable. It wasn’t stated anywhere that it MUST be a pound only deal and therefore my price of 80£ was the best one. I hope you will take it into account and take the right decision.
Waiting for a reply!
