    I can't see the September jobs yet, but would expect them to appear this evening - or Monday morning in Australia.

    Thanks. I realise now I haven't got the Seprtember jobs sothat is obviously why my towns aren't available.

    Thanks ruthiejane. That makes me feel a bit better. For a moment there, i thought i'd done something wrong and wasn't going to be advised of September assignments.
    So, i guess it will be Monday morning in Australia when it's Sunday evening here? Soz, not great with time differences! Lol!

    Yes - its about 6:30pm there now, so, would expect to see the jobs at 9am Monday morning - 15 hours time - the early hours of the morning here.

    I thought it meantthat you had to do that shop in a different town before you would be allowed to do the first one again. ever.
    then I wondered if it meant that you cant do it again until someone else has done it so its not the same person twice in a row? So I would like to know too!

    the Gap system will just show it as rejected in your "my assignment" section if you select something you aren't allowed to do. So hope that helps a bit!

    I think it must mean another shopper must do a shop inbetween as I did my pizza in Jan and then the same one last nite and I have not done any others inbetween!
    I have some jobs for pc and elec for GAP that are for sept (had them for ages so not sure why they were released along with the Aug ones :confused:)
    I think I will just try and put any jobs in my basket and see what happens then if the system rejects it for you - least that makes it a bit easier ;)

    I expect alot of us on here tonight then in anticipation for the new jobs :rolleyes:

    Do Gap have more exciting companies than greasy burgers/pizza's, petrol stations, bookies etc? I have only been with them a few weeks, so haven't been around when they release a whole lot??
  • Nope :rotfl:
    They do have small local supermakets, stamp shops, elec and PC shops,phone shops and travel shops (but I work for them so I can't do those ones ;) )
    There are probably a few more I have forgotten ;)

  • Hi all!

    Just wanted to introduce myself. Having got myself in some pretty bad debt, and being back at home living with my parents after 5 years living with my ex, I've decided it's time to do something about it. I work full time as a Marketing Manager, but am now supplementing that income wherever I can - I've signed up to a number of the MS companies, did my first 2 jobs last week (for GAP), and have had a major clearout and dumped a load of stuff on ebay last Sunday - at £120 already, and not even put a a fifth of it on.

    Anyway...!! I've been lurking on here for a couple of weeks, and it's you guys who inspired me to get MS'ing, so I wanted to say hi, and thankyou! There's a lot to learn, but I thoroughly enjoyed the 2 shops last week, so fingers crossed for getting more (everywhere seems a bit bare at the moment?).

    I live in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, and work in Chesterfield in Derbyshire. Anyone else around that area on here? I have a fair few questions!

    Right, I'll stop rambling on.... :rotfl:
    Debt at 'ephiphany': £13,500 (March 1st) :eek:
    Money made from ebay 2009: £130 (£600 2008)
    Money made so far in 2009 from Mystery Shopping: £0 (£200 2008)
    ***1st March 2009 - begun claims from Halifax, Capital One and Arcadia RE unfair charges and missold PPI... Fingers crossed!!
  • Welcome steelercaz13! :) Glad you're enjoying MS'ing; it doesn't make a fortune but every little helps!
