    Don't give up dreaming though as you can get holidays ......I have had some fees and expenses paid trips with family ....lengthy reporting but o so worth it! Cannot disclose agencies but some you may already be working for;)

    Two Msers I 'know' went on a month long Asia hotel tour Mostly 5* but some not. The trip turned out to be more nghtmare than holiday though.

    A while back OC used to send people to Caravan Parks -I went to Skegness :rolleyes:
    They also had Spa hotels where you stayed 2 days-You had to be SAGA age though!

    Longer back-I think it was Gfk or NOP had Ski holidays....

    ooh where is everyone today??

    Busy auditing this morning and finishing a uni essay this afternoon. It was a nightmare essay but it's gone now - yay :D

    I've MS'd a caravan park before and enjoyed it. I also did get offered a long weekend in Majorca where I had to assess the flights, accomodation and rep service. I can't remember who offered me that but I couldn't take the job. The allocator had to know within the hour if I could do it, but I was a single parent and couldn't get hold of my Mam to see if she would have the bairns for a weekend, so I lost out :(
    Here I go again on my own....
  • Retail Eyes does holidays:

    "For this assignment you will be reimbursed 25p towards your flight and £1 towards accommodation. It is vitally important that you answer every question in full with a 255 word comment, and then also write up a full report of your holiday, so that we have all the information twice. Please do not use foreign sounding names, words or place names as this will confuse the proof-readers. Please remember to count every grain of sand on the beach. If there are less than three trillion grains of sand, please go back the next day and count again, as the problem may have been rectified. Failure to count the sand will result in non-payment. You are not allowed to have any fun on this holiday. Any shopper found to have enjoyed themselves will not be paid, and will loose 2 points."


    Seriously, GAP phoned me and asked if I would do a round the world cruise mystery shop. I have read on this thread how to deal with GAP's begging phone calls, so I refused and asked for a bribe.. They said they would allocate me two petrol stations, three stamp shops, five convenience stores and twenty nine burger jobs, all with extra fees. I said it wasn't enough and asked them never to ring me again. They must think I floated up the river in a bubble.
    Happy New Year :beer:
