Ha! I've just done one too SC - I went to CS and accidentally spilled my two receipts (cafe and checkout), my credit card and my BRIEFING NOTES on to the counter - ARGH!! I don't think she saw it but I really must connect brain before going to another shop!0

Anyone visited a health club or gym these past few weeks?
I would love to know what you thought. I've never been treated so well! I am 100% sure they knew what I was there to do. The staff were sending other members over to see if I was ok and tell me how great the club is. Two staff members were following me around checking if I needed anything (for 3 hours) ... even into the changing rooms after I had been in the pool!

I did 2 bank jobs on friday. while in the queue for check in desk so I could give her my scenario, I took out a notebook to work out what I still needed off my shopping list while I was in town already. Next thing I know, someone different had come to seat me and apologise for my wait and to see what I needed help with. It was only branch manager! He was very helpful and told me all info there and then and there was no need to wait for a callback so I could fill my report straight away but it shows they were expecting someone around that time. I've been banking there for 4 years and have never seen BM before Fri!0

Hi, I have a question re GR supermarket jobs. Do I need to email or post the receipt to anyone ? I have read the notes and it just says to keep it for 3 months.0

Does anyone know how long you have to wait before doing the same 'underground' sandwich type shop for RE. I cannot see anything on the notes suggesting you cannot visit if you have been there in the last x months?

I joined a health club last year, not as an MS, and they were really nice to me too. And on my first visit they made sure I was OK, and every time the girl that did the initial sales pitch saw me she chatted to me. I think they are just well trained, and work hard. (Think it is the same chain that people are MSing currently.)Anyone visited a health club or gym these past few weeks?

No you don't need to send it in. You fill in some details from the receipt in your report, and just keep the receipt in your own files.0 -

I think you just keep it just in case they need it? Not sure though, never done one.Tesco_points_addict wrote: »Does anyone know how long you have to wait before doing the smae 'underground' sanwhich type shop for RE.

I dunno, something like 3 months? Doesn't the system just not show ones you can't do? So if it's showing for you you can probably do it?Dan
