Quick question, I have a pizza job tonight and I have checked the notes very carefully and it says I must not use coupons and I must order 1 pizza, 1 side and 1 drink. There is a meal deal for £12.99 which includes 1 pizza, 1 side and 1 drink - can I order this?

See common sense tells me that I can order this and it will be fine - however GAP being GAP I wonder if this is one of their 'you should be psychic and know you can't order this?!'

Any advice pretty please?:)

I think as long as the pizza in the offer is one of the ones in your brief - remember sizes and types of pizza are very specific, then you should be ok. Also, as long as the sides on offer are the same as one of the sides on your brief.

And I want to do MSing for all the beauty salons in the area. :rotfl:

nationwide pet shops on RE, rubbish fee and reimbursement, but good if you shop there anyway!

I think Ellie would disagree with you there! Before you accept one of these jobs, wait until you've had feedback from someone who's done the job before!

Oh? Oh dear! I've accepted one now. I'm scared...

I've done one of these before but wasn't really worth it for me coz I don't have any pets! Got some wild bird food and a feeder though so not a complete waste of time.

I've got 2 cats and go in there quite often anyway, so pretty pleased about getting it I think the trick is not to buy anything that's alive in there?!

Ridiculous, the fee for these last time wasn't bad at all for the time taken but with no fee it's a totally pointless assignment.

It's really simple with RE, if you don't like it leave it. There'll be a more eager shopper willing to do it. They'll eventually realise these folks will find "it isn't worth it any more" and won't complete the assignments accurately or on time if at all.

At this point, they'll drop the fees even further for the next round of mugs to come along or they'll increase the fees.

Incidentally, has anyone here ever complained to RE about their fees?
