For anyone who does GAP pizza jobs - I just noticed one of their competitors is doing a special offer of buy one get one free on pizza, but only on Tuesdays. So I rescheduled, cos I guess if they tell you there's an offer on the phone when you order and you refuse, it would be pretty weird.

So if you're going to accept a job, try if you can to do it on a tuesday so you get more for your reimbursement!

I've got a Gap pizza on Monday, but it's not a competitor one

A quick question about the cookie jobs, doing my first one today.

It says to buy 4 - but do you ask for this right away + buy more if offered or do you ask for fewer and buy 4 if offered? Can't really figure this out from the instructions, as usual they are not really that clear.

Does anyone have a contact number for BARE/Bai?
I've been looking all over the site and can't see one anywhere.

Plus, I've just found this site if anyone wants to dine out for free - it looks really good. It might be well known already (in which case I apologise) so it would be interesting to know if anyone has any experience of them too. But if not, here's the link:

Congratulations! I love the Aba-i petrol jobs - they are incredibly easy! I was running out of petrol last week and willing one to come up but it didn't... when I got my first petrol payment through the post I couldn't help but dance! Ha ha. I think my boyfriend thought I was insane!!!

It's nice to see the cash though, rather than a figure on a bank statement!

I must be missing something, as every one of the Aba Petrol jobs I've done is not actually for petrol at all, but to get some small shopping and a hot drink - Petrol can be bought, but will not be re-imbursed.

Confused! :huh:

There are 2 different types of petrol jobs. You have done the ones that need a shop purchase but there is another type that requires a petrol purchase.

When I have done them, you have to ask for 4, and sometimes you are upsold to 6.

I had the same problem yesterday-could only find one that didn't work (and was international although I didn't mind that as I get free international calls anyway) .
I found it (the UK number) in the end on one of Vincent's emails at the bottom-in case someone else has the same problem again another time.

Not done this one but does it say you have to buy more if offered.....or just see if you are *offered* the up-sell ?
