    All I can think about is Isla Fisher in confessions of a shopaholic :rotfl:, I guess it would only be an issue if I did that every weekend!

    I think I will have to wear my new kneeboots to the wedding tomorrow :A

    Very happily married on 10th April 2013 :D

    Yeah an old friend, we haven't seen them for a year and a half but the groom is part of a DJ circle of friends that me and OH has. It's quite a distance from us but it will be nice to see them on their special day, we are only going for the evening so I am hoping there isn't any traffic or it could be a 2 hour drive to only really be there for 2 hours :o

    I'm not a fan! Perhaps I shouldn't admit that in public :rotfl:

    Just posted all my confessions on my diary lol :o

    Me neither, sorry!

    Now settling down to watch strictly though, don't know if I should admit that in public!

    Quick question, does anyone do Mystery Shopping? If so, is it worth doing and does it take much time? x

    I did quite a lot of mystery shopping last year for a few different companies and for a while it was good, especially if you can get 2 or 3 in the same area at the same time. We had quite a few free meals out as well :). I stopped after a while though because some of the reports took so long to do and by the time I had done the actual shop and reported it, it was taking like 2 hours.

    Grassroots are a really good company - well, they were when I did it, the fee's were good and the reports not too arduous. The last time I logged on to Retail Eyes the fee's were like a few pounds and I am sure I can make that money with less hassle in other ways!

    Thank you, will investigate! I just know I won't be able to do it if it is time consuming and the money has got to be worth the effort! Seems like quite a few people do it though. A friend of mine reviews films at the cinema, I might look into that too. You don't get paid but get to see the films for free.
