Thanks Princess.
Gosh there's a lot to sort out!
would there be a list with links at all?

Thanks

There are a few links in Timmnes post on page one and for a more extensive list then Becles wrote a good post here.

If you are new to this I would recommend starting with a company that uses the easier reports and q's like gap or gfk and then extend your list of comps as you go. Good Luck and welcome to the thread!:D

Can anyone help me please? I'm trying to accept a pizza job on Gap for either this weekend or next weekend (which are among the dates listed as available), but it keeps coming up as 'rejected/cancelled'. I know it's not because i've recently shopped this particular pizza place because i've never shopped this one - just their competitor - and there's no training thingy for them that i've missed either.. TIA

Well, i still haven't heard from them, and i still can't accept the job...

Did anyone get an email from BARE explaining that we would be getting a number of exciting emails and what not.

Can i ask a pizza question please? I would contact Gap, but don't hold out too much hope of getting a response from them any time soon...

I've got a pizza job to do, and the assignment instructions say that i have to purchase a meal for up to two people, but it says that a maximum of 4 visitors in the party applies. Sooo, if i was to go along with my dh and our two children, how would it work when it comes to getting the bill? Would Gap pay for two of the meals on the receipt, or would i have to submit a receipt only showing mine and dh's meals, and have the children's meals on another receipt? TIA

Nope you have to order it separately, therefore you might as well where a badge saying I am a Mystery shopper :rotfl:
They only let you buy what is on the brief as they won't pay mine as I ordered the wrong crust :mad:
On a previous shop we ordered more than stated (did.t know any better then ) and they paid so don't really understand them

Yep I got one so will see what comes of it.

I took my mum to MFI today (not MSing) as she's looking for a new kitchen. I sooo wanted to actually mystery shop them by the time we'd spoken to one of the sales assistants. She said no-one had time to sit down with us to discuss the kitchen as they were short staffed and unless we were serious about buying the kitchen they wouldn't come out and measure as it would be a waste of 2 hours of their time!!!! I couldn't beleive the cheek of the woman.

What's that saying- 'hell hath no fury like an off-duty mystery shopper scorned!'
