    Please can all the posts that mention fees and expenses be edited, as this is breaking the terms and conditions of your contract and ruins it for the rest of us more serious shoppers!
    Thanks

    as I'm going to need to start saving for tax soon, how much on average is national insurance? just to make sure this is worth me doing otherwise could be paying out to much NI and getting little left over.

    You have read the first post, haven't you? - if MS is your only income, I will be surprised if you make a profit of over £4000 in your first year (just supposing jobs are paid at £5 each, this would mean you had to do 16 every single week plus 2 weeks' holiday....)

    Read the first post and you will see that you can register to be NI exempt assuming you have another job....:D

    Not forgetting all those things you can offset, so that your "earnings" are a lot less than they first appear - petrol, parking, printing costs, phonecalls etc.

    and this is why a lot of clients have started wanting receipts, because of people abusing the system. Remember the client may have CCTV, check back on the details and see what you actually ordered and report back to the Company!

    Are you having a laugh? :confused:Do you really think that these companies - as tight as they are - really check CCTV?!?!?! And in a busy bar are going to bother trying to track down a couple of drinks out of those that are sold during the period you're there. get real! It's mystery shopping not MI5:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    :grin: Save me from spending...
