I know!!! I'd LOVE to do a pet store for our cat too!
I wish you could see what jobs you've missed out on on RE like you can on GR. Then I could see if someone else has done the Pet shop in my area or if it's likely to still come up at some point!TWBM 2010 Wishlist:

Any one have any ideas on how I can raise a couple hundred quid fast? Really skint this month and my mystery shopping money hasn't come through yet!
Car boot?! At least you'd the money straight away. Could always ask family/friends if they have any items you could sell too if you haven't got enough stuff of your own?TWBM 2010 Wishlist:

I tend to do most of my jobs in my lunch breaks. That's why I don't make the large amounts some others doKaramelRose wrote: »I'm SO gutted! There's a BARE shop in my home town but as it's Mon-Fri I can't really do it. Although, I suppose I could take a trip on my lunch break one day... hmmm... that's not a bad idea!

Yeah I've got another one on my lunch break today! I quite like it as it fits nicely into the day (and I can do the report at work in the afternoon so it doesn't cut into my evening!). I don't work in a particularly big town so I'm surprised I've picked up a few to be honest!TWBM 2010 Wishlist:

I do a lot in my lunch break too. Then I can write the report when I get back in the office (as long as the visit hasn't taken too long), get the receipt scanned and then submit it straight away. I like to have my weekends and evenings as free as I can for my other money making schemes!! :rotfl:0 -
I wish I worked close enough to be able to shop during my lunch. Luckily the 2 major shopping centres by me are open til 8-9 so I can fit some in the evenings.0

Oooh gutted about the TNS jobs - I can't access their website for some reason at work (I think it's a type of secure site that won't display here!).TWBM 2010 Wishlist:
