Have you counted all the e-mail addresses on todays e-mail to come up with that figure?:eek:
So far I have resisted trying to count them but if I don't get some serious MS jobs in the next few days it might be one way to pass my time inbetween F5ing all the sites.......:D
I have noticed some names on there that are familiar though.....:rolleyes:

Ooh why? Have RE sent an email out with everyone's email addresses in!?

Not RE, its one letting us know petrol has been uploaded, only its about 2 hours too late.
There are some quite funny names people use in their e-mail addresses, but I'm not too keen on everyone being able to see each others though.
Sorry edit...... I'm not too keen on everyone seeing mine anyway........:D

Yes, it's probably because they have over 42 thousand shoppers in the country and they get nabbed before you get a chance to see them!

Their homepage states: You may or may not know that Retail Eyes now has over 450,000 active shoppers:eek:

I haven't got it yet but that is most unprofessional of them as you never know where our email addresses will end up:mad:

Yeah I agree... most companies don't disclose the recipients of an email. Shame on the MS Company!

Last month I sent mine in around the 5th as I forgot too but I received a cheque on the 15th. It's worth sending in now TBH.

Thanks, Mysterious girl, I will get that sent off now :j

Take out the 25% of the 60 million who are under 16. Then take out all those infirm, in hospital and in prison. Take out all those in remote areas and that figure represents 2 in every 100 active adults are mystery shoppers for Retail Eyes.

Almost unbelieveable.

It makes you wonder if some people have referred their dog/cat/budgie/whatever to RE in order to earn the £1.50 referral fee:D

Then again it does say active. The other 98 in every 100 are probably probationary shoppers with RE:rolleyes:
