  • I go off to Sainsbury's for a non MS shop for an hour and what happens?! All the posh department store food jobs are gone! AGGHHH!!!!!!
  • I'm sorry if anyone's already asked this, haven't had a chance to read back! I just wondered whether anyone had recieved their payment for Abai catalogue visits from last month yet? I thought it was meant to be 3 weeks after you do the job, but I did one on 2nd Aug and haven't got my payment yet - starting to get a bit worried, esp with their notoriously unsafe payment method!

    Thanks in advance x

    When you do a car visit on Bare, they say about a dozen differant visits etc. Do they give you the various addresses and are they miles apart, or can you do the local ones, and are they worth doing, any little tips please.
  • I'm writing an ebook on mystery shopping including the ones to be wary of, the decent companies and some tactics on covert shopping etc. It's a growth market is covert audits and I'm reviewing each store and how easy / hard they are to audit...

    Would that interest anyone on here, I can offer some freebie copies once it's all finished!

    If you are lucky, you can get most of them in one town, but more often that not they will be fairly spread out. The circuits are pre-determined and I don't think that Bare are actually able / willing to change them.

    Definitely worth it when the payment hits your bank the following month, and the reports are not too bad.... but they are quite time consuming doing the actual visits and travelling.

    I have just this minute finished a bank test. They have changed a few questions. I can normally do the bank test with my eyes closed :) If you need any help just PM me.
    We could all learn a little something from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.
  • What's the minimum age for MS? I'm nearly 16 and wondered if this was just for 18+...
