ellie i got paid today from gap so i asume you will have too unless its because the banks are open here and not in england

Best to let them know sooner rather than later, that way they can get cover.

Oh no - I hope you feel better soon. You may find that as you have a really good reason not to be out and about that they will be OK with it. Hope your out and about again soon x

Hi all. I'm loving all the Tesco posts - I don't shop there myself, but wow, some serious MoneySaving going on there!! :T :T

Had one MS this weekend at an electrical store, which was very pleasant to report on since their customer service was very good. Got 2 tomorrow - a fast food premium job that appeared for lunchtime, when I was considering getting lunch there anyway, and a kitchen one in the evening on the way home.

Only got 1 more scheduled for during the week, for Thursday evening. What's everybody else got coming up this week?

Also, I did a job for BARE on the 19th (my first one) - anyone know how long they usually take to review them / award a score? The suspense is killing me! :rotfl:

Hi. I did the work for Assosia, but was not a mystery shop, it was a declared visit to audit the adverts and trailers. Unfortunately I did not get to watch the film or stuff myself full of popcorn, but it was an easy job.

I would advise you remove those details, due to the confidentiality issues!

Rachel you poor thing. If you don't feel up to doing the shops I would phone the MS companies and explain I am sure they will be sympathetic. BTW I am in Scotland too and it was a bank holiday today. But don't worry bout us in England as we get the holiday the last Mon of September.

I was working today and got home to find on my answering machine an appeal from RE to do one of their off sales jobs. I got one last week about the pharmacy jobs and told them why I won't do them. BTW there are still loads of pharmacy jobs in my area and I see they have again extended the date for the umpteenth time.

Surely by now they are taking on board that we are not doing the hay fever jobs as we don't want a house full of unneeded hay fever tablets.

As for the off sales jobs I did them when you got to assess the sales assistant's helpfulness in helping you choose a wine but you don't need help to choose lager!!! I hate lager so it would be as much use to me as hay fever tablets.

I also got a begging email from Gyp saying please do some of our jobs and qualify for a prize draw competition.

No-one phones or emails me
Makes me feel left out I did get a few calls when I was 8mths preg & once when in hosp so maybe they have taken me off the call list as hubby said I was busy having a baby :rotfl:
