Introduction


Whether it’s smoking, drinking too much, eating chocolate, overspending or even biting your nails, The Big Cold Turkey is here to help you show those nasty little addictions and bad habits who’s boss. It’s time to take control of your life and give it up. So why not join The Big Cold Turkey Programme and get the inspiration to start and the motivation to keep going.  
   
It's simple, the pack contains everything you
need to complete your journey.
 
 
     
 
     
What is The Big Cold Turkey Programme?

The Big Cold Turkey Programme makes giving up a lot more fun. You can choose to give up whatever you want, so anyone and everyone can do it. It is based on the same principle as training for and running a Marathon, working up from 5km, 10km and 21km to the full 42km! Only this time you are working in days not kilometres!


 
     
 
     
How it works

The Big Cold Turkey uses a silicone wristband and a uniquely created incentive system of stainless steel trophies that reward and mark your achievement during each stage of your marathon. The Big Cold Turkey comes in a shrink wrapped, cigarette-box sized pack and includes: A Getting Started booklet, 4 stainless steel trophies in a paper wrap, 2 button badges, a 42-day 'One day at a time' diary and even a transfer tattoo. Once you've opened the pack you can re-seal it and use it as a savings box.
   
   

 
     
 
       
 

 
     
 

The silicone wristband shows your progress at each stage.

 

 
Stainless steel trophies mark your progress.




 

 

 

Both booklets help you get motivated and the diary helps you every day on your journey.

 
             
Wear the cool tattoo and show off to your friends and family.
 

 
             
 

Badges let your friends and family know you've started even when they can't see your wrist band.
 

 

The sticker turns your starter kit into a money box. Seal it when you start
and the money you would normally spend on your habit can be used for something more useful.
 
             

 
Punch the perforation to
make the savings box.
 
The Big Cold Turkey Prograrmme wrist bands sizes come in two sizes. Small to Medium and Medium to Large.  
 



 
If you would like to do The Big Cold Turkey Programme with a group of friends, why not save money and buy the box of 20?

 Staying on the wagon

Giving up is a new start. So try some other new stuff at the same time. Go to some new places. Meet some new people. Take your kite to the park. Start a new hobby. Even a new cycle route might do the trick. And if you're really struggling, join a support group.

See our support section for useful links.
