    Anyone else not seeing these?

    My defined areas cover much of England and I don't see any...

    (and no, I've not done any of these before!)


    I can see nearly 100 of them, mostly in the London area - the name is 'where you keep your bottles'.. I've not seen them on RE before...

    I can see them (the off licences in london and surrounding) BUT i'm not taking one as I think they are taking advantage as you have to make 2 enquiries. there is a fee and reimbursement to buy a bottle. So imo its 2 jobs bundled into one. They are going like hot cakes though.Maybe i am being to fussy as the questionaire doesn't look to bad.

    They used to me the other wine shop but think there was some kind of reorganisation within the company as my local one used to be a "red place" and now is the blue one.

    Nope, still don't see them, I have 84 jobs available, which is around the same number as yesterday evening (it's been decreasing by 2 or 3 every 15 mins or so).

    As an example of areas I can see:

    Hull
    Reading
    Wigan
    Birmingham
    Dartford (those darn Ebbsfleet jobs!)
    Guildford
    Luton
    Dagenham
    york
    Waltham-On-Thames
    Lancaster
    East London (hotel - think its a call and visit job)

    ETC.

    But no "offy" jobs.

    They've obviously heard about your 'problem' and are trying not to make it worse...;););)

    Have been frantically refreshing my RE screen every couple of mins, waiting for them to list some in my area. There are shops in Newcastle and in Leeds, but none in between!

    I've done a little search on yell.com and it looks like they don't have any in my area. Boohoo - could do with a drink!

    What are the two enquiries, it looks like a single visit to me.
