No mileage on the TNS quick supermarkets then

I didn't even notice that!

Got three on one day & two on another though so not too bad I suppose.:D

Ooh, well spotted! Only one near me and it's about 25 minutes away, definitely not worth it if no mileage. I wonder why they have changed that? I've done 3 this week and they did have mileage. Very odd. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come.

Definately a sign of the times - the pizza jobs have decreased a lot as well. A shame, as it all seems to be going towards the RE style of payment :rolleyes:

I totally agree. For a start, I wouldn't even have £325 to buy a top, not matter how pretty it was, especially if it wasn't even in my size. I think I would have aborted the job there and then and contacted ABAi to tell them why.

And if I had gone ahead and purchased it, I'd've made darn sure I kept a copy of the receipt and then took it back before their returns deadline was up.

All for a £10 fee? Madness, I tell you, complete and utter madness!

i am also amazed that people are trying to make a few extra quid on ms then spending so much on clothes - whats the point?

I've not bothered with the TNS fast supermarkets. I attempted to do a job for TNS at the biggest supermarket. Never again. The brief was a joke and they wanted me to do sooooo much for such a teeny-weeny fee.

Suffice to say that I didn't do the job in the end. I told them why too. Don't think they were pleased, but hey, not my problem.

I don't like the big ones, but TNS fast supermarkets are easy-peasy compared to the big ones and , in my opinion , worth doing.

The fast ones are a lot easier Monkey, but I can't do my local as my friend works there!

Edit - TG beat me to it
