.... Is it safe to come out?

I'm glad to see GFK have bumped forward their December pay day, that'll certainly help me out a little bit. Although RE are still showing as running a pay roll on 25th December - I can't see that one happening somehow!

I've just went to enter my results for a job I did yesterday (involving a £15 spend), and discovered I shouldn't have done it till next Saturday :eek:.

I'm hoping RE will take pity on me and let me enter the results.

Oh no!! If the worst comes to the worst can you go back next Saturday, return what you purchased yesterday and do it again?

morning,

does anyone know who MS the hand made beauty shop, if anyone? its the one that RE loaded competitor jobs for yesterday on behalf of the ethical beauty company that they have? it smells very nice when you walk past!

probably won't make sense unless you have looked at/picked up the jobs!

Being male I couldnt see those but I know the store you mean on Gentleman's Walk, (and they were not there in my wife's account, but had talked to RE earlier that day and they mentioned them to me.). So - not me this time

Yes I never thought of that! I could maybe just get the bottom half to go with the top I got. They will come in handy for the gym assignment that starts in January.

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 ?

It might be possible if you concentrated on video mystery shops - it depends what your work hours are, and how much of your evenings and weekends you are prepared to give up.

MS'ing appears as ALOT of hard work, effort and time for a small return. Am i right in thinking people do it because they enjoy it and are grateful for making a few quid?

I'm not happy with just a few quid! Mystery shopping is my full time job. However, I concentrate on video shopping as I don't think I could ever make enough just doing the written visits. The visit fee is considerably higher (£20 - £50 per job, depending on what's required) and mileage allowance is also paid. Also, because everything is recorded on video the reports are much less onerous - usually just a dozen or so "yes" or "no" questions. On average I do 3 - 6 jobs per day, and earn £2000 - £4000 per month. Also, because there are no so many video shoppers around there is much less competition for the best-paying jobs.

What is video mystery shops ? Please explain.

I honestly believe it is possible to make £200+ per week from doing other things on top of your normal job. Once you believe it you can achieve it. I want to THINK BIG, it is the only way of being seriously wealthy IMO.

Why don't others do Video MS? It sounds so much better then the likes of RE. Don't people want to earn more money for less of their time?
