one of the answers above will work or you could use

...
$("a.me").click(function(e){
    var number = $(e.target).text();
    alert(number);
});

In jQuery you can use $(this) to reference the element that was clicked (or otherwise used)

Like so:

$("a.me").click(function(){
    var number = $(this).text();
    alert(number);
});

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("a.me").click(function(){
      var target=$(this).attr("href");
      alert(target);
  });
});

You should do

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("a.me").click(function(){
    //It's not clear if you want the href attribute or the text() of the <a>
    //this gives you the href. if you need the text $(this).text();
    var number = this.href;
    alert(number);

  });
});
