    Apologies in advance to people above, but I've just accepted 10 jobs from ESA! Wahey, looks like a fun day out, all in the same town.

    Yes there were 40 in the same town, I applied for them all and have been offered 10. Got to make a small purchase and ask a question in each one. Totally random shops - small independent ones, including a wedding dress shop, might struggle to find a purchase for under a fiver in there!

    The Good: Just scored a pub visit from MCE for this lunchtime. Decent pub, 10 mins walk.
    The Bad: Just spent 10mins trying to figure out the 'specified drink' only to find out it's rose wine. This is a real man's real ale pub. I'm female. If I wear a 'I'm a Mystery Shopper' T shirt, will it make it any less obvious?

    Maybe I can drum up my mother to come with me.

    Just wondered how you got on today? Hope it went well and you didn't have to wear a MS T-shirt ;)

    Posh sandwich shop.

    !!!!!! are they on?????????????????????

    2 questionnaires (for only one fee), the second one asking exactly the same questions as I've already put in the first one?

    I've had to tell them what was left and right of the store not once, not twice, but THREE times, and upload my photo of the store and receipt twice.

    What's going on?????????????????????

    I made a total muck up of a job yesterday :(. It was a RE one making an enquiry about buying a household item we all watch ... I thought it was a fee paying job and you had to make a small purchase to get a receipt, so I spent just 47p on some reduced vacuum fresheners. But no........guess who didn't read it properly :rolleyes:, it was a reimbursement job, so muggins here done the job and the rotten report for 47p :eek:.

    Got to be the lowest paid job ever, lol, but entirely my fault. I got it confused with the other job about the laptops for another client where it IS a fee and not a reimbursement.

    They're getting worse TG aren't they? And the fees are getting lower as well. Some of the things they ask you to comment on are just totally ridiculous.
