When I do GAP pizzas, I take OH with me. I have an average appetite and he has a huge appetite! We order a garlic bread, large cheesy bites pizza & salad bowl (amazing how much you can get in those if you try ) with two refill drinks, all to share and we find that it is plenty. It comes in at just 3 or 4 quid over the reimbursement in my area.

Or if you are lucky, they will forget to charge for the salad bowl, which happened on my first ever visit to them. Didn't notice till several days later, after I had answered that everything was accurate on the questionnaire - luckily for me, GAP didn't pick up on it either

Pretty much exactly what I do. A large pizza is more than enough for two, combined with the salad bowl and garlic bread, and two drinks, and you're sorted. And just a few quid over the reimbursement.

Unless they don't pay you.

We used to order the medium pan between the 2 of us and it was plenty for us, that way you don't have to pay separately for the other person. Which also helps with previous poster's question about taking DD.

I managed to eat a medium pizza and four garlic bread slice by myself at lunchtime

I would think that would be your whole calorie intake for one day in that little lot :eek:

I can't believe how quickly those pub jobs went on RE - mine went from 40-1 in the blink of an eye! I did manage to bag one that I can do with OH on our wedding anniversary - we're pretty short of cash so very pleased we can eat out for nearly nothing!:D

I know, but the pizza was so yummy! Not as orgasmic as the one I had a few months ago but it was almsot as good

It was a delivery and everyone had gone out so felt it would be a travesty to let it get cold. Admittedly I don't think I could anything for... ooo another hour

18 out of 21 still showing in my area - must be the neighbourhood.

Probably only allowed one of the colourful monarch ones, so they'll all have disappeared and the one remaining you can see is probably the weather cutlery one.

I think some of you dont realise that mystery shopping IS a job for a lot of people and the other ladies I work with all do mystery shopping as a job, not to earn a few extra pounds.

I agree some people use it as a form of income or as a job, I tend to do it just in spare time and its useful if I have to travel anywhere, I look to see if there is a job where I am going that will pay my petrol :rotfl::rotfl:

It says no half/half, no pineapple, but also says stuffed/cheesy crust only available on large and will cost extra that won't be refunded.

Do not do anything to p**s GAP off or they will not pay you. This includes not getting stuffed crust/cheesy bites. Do not move from your seat unless it is specifically authorised by GAP, e.g. to visit the toilet.

I did a pizza job two weeks ago, had large pizza but didnt have stuffed/cheesy bites because it was the extra £1.75
Two of us dined, the server gave me the original receipt for the total amount, I paid on card and she replaced the proper receipt with a debit card receipt, when I asked her for the original proper receipt as well she said that because she had finalised it on the till she couldnt reprint another receipt, and she was using the original receipt for herself for her own records of how much money she had made for the store.
So I scanned the debit card receipt for the Gap report and made a note in the report, havent heard anything back about it so I presume they are OK about it?

Worth noting that the debit card receipt doesnt state what we ate, just the store address, card details, date & time etc etc

You mean there are savoury areas in Glasgow

Hollypear, do you mind me asking which company do cinema visits? I'd love to do some of these.

Thanks
