    Could it have been for a Mailing?
    Nope but it got me thinking and it was a released cafe I took on last minute - didn't make a note of it!

    Hi guys

    I'm really new to all this, I've joined the obvious shoppers but am having little luck with being assigned :(. Had one ESA so far, Helion I have signed up for about 21 of the phone ones but no joy and the 4 in my area I applied for and didn't get.

    Any ideas for the 'best' or most frequent mystery shopper ones? I'm really eager to give it a go as I work my main job on flexi time so it's ideal, and I would LOVE to clear my debts below by The end of financial year 2010.... optimistic I know but that's the kind of person I am :)

    Thanks guys :p

    Hi and welcome!

    You'll need to join the queue I'm afraid. There's not much out there at the moment. Jobs seem to go out as and when - I did 27 jobs in 3 weeks in March but so far only have 8 booked for this week.
    I check each website daily, sometimes a few times a day. Some companies prefer to use more established shoppers I applied for loads with REACT but got nothing!

    I only started in March but I can see that jobs do come up you just have to patient and wait for something in your area. :)

  • Since yesterday things are on the up. In the last 24 hours I've booked:

    6 phone shops
    1 opticians
    4 - something else I can't tell anyone about
    1 hardware store

    But I really miss my GfK. Have had nothing from them for the next pay run. First time in 3 years! :eek:

    The chicken fried rice with chilli recipe would be most helpful if anyone has it. Sounds lovely! :)
  • Yep got a few jobs booked now myself! - 2 toy stores and 3 diy stores . Need more though!

    I've joined a couple more now, fingers crossed.... I know it's a case of wait and see but didn't know if there were any that were particularly good in updating regularly or specified in South East etc but thank you! Need to hunt around on MSE for other onliney type making money things. Like evryone, I'm not bothered about huge amounts but every little counts in my books!

    Off to do a bed shop. Hopefully they won't offer a demo otherwise i'm not comming back to work lol

    Need a little help. Doing my first TNS supermarket tonight. do i need to visit all departments AND the extra ones. My store has 10 plus departments.

    It then looks like i need to make 7 enquiries. is this right?

    I think i'm confusing myself more than anything lol

    And lastley these have petrol stations but cannot make a purchase as they are simply a payment kiosk, not a shop?
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!
