I am getting a little worried as for the whole of this week I have had no assignments showing despite the alerts. Has anyone else had this?

Me too, no jobs at all for me.

I very rarely have anything when the alerts are posted but I just put that down to being in Northern Ireland

I signed upto RE today. I can't find any jobs on the site, any idea why ?

Does anyone know how long it would take or how many assignments it will require to make about £200 a week from MS ? Would this be an achievable target on top of having a normal job ?

There are only certain jobs you can do as a 'probationary' shopper so keep an eye out on the alerts thread for pub meals as theyre a common starter job.


As for earning £200 a week....if you work full time I doubt it's possible at least not at first, once you get to be known and trusted by the companies you get more work but I still doubt £200 weekly would be possible.

On RE it generally takes at least overnight to get a few jobs on, but they don't tend to upload over the weekend mostly on evenings Mon-Thurs.

In terms of making £200 a week on top of a full time job, I think you would struggle! Most jobs have some kind of outlay i.e you have to buy a product or food and that is sometimes considered part of the reward so you may only get £5 or so for a job. Considering the tax entitlement I think you'd need around 20-30 jobs a week to make £200, obviously with more experience you'll start to get some better paid jobs and pick and choose more but from experience it isn't really possible to make that kind of money on top of a full time job.

Generally on top of my full time job I'm happy if I make £200 a month of proper money (excluding the bonuses of food or drinks or products that I need to buy).

That's minimum 20 "high paying" jobs. Others like phone shops pay less so you're looking at more. I don't work apart from MS-ing, and working 5 days a week at it the most I've ever made in one month is £693. That's being out for 4-5 hours during the day and then another couple of hours writing up reports in the evenings. Remember, its not so much doing the jobs that takes the time it#s doing the reports.

If you're looking to make £800 a month on top of a full time job then I don't think MS-ing is the way to do it.
