Message from GAP on their website. Means we have to make sure to download paperwork and either print it or write the number down. I normally just read it online.

Important Update to Shopper Paperwork

7.06.10

Important update soon to your Assignment Instructions/Questionnaire.

From mid 2010 your assignment instructions will contain a unique WebExpress code.
You must enter this code to be able to express your assignment results. If you do not collect this code prior to your evaluation you will not be able to report your results and therefore will not be paid.

The Assignment Instructions/Questionnaire/Paperwork will be available three (3) days before your scheduled shop date, through until the end of the scheduled assignment timeframe. After this timeframe has lapsed, the paperwork will no longer be available, and therefore you will not have access to the code.

I saw this and thought it made it a very expensive business especially if the instructions are identical for each survey, will be buying printer ink each week now

For Gap? No, you're not allowed to take ANYONE AT ALL with you. :-(

Didn't you have to demonstrate your understanding of this when you took the exam or answered the screening questions?

This has been answer countless times over the months, and I'm sure was asked very recently (i.e within last fortnight or so).

You must complete the visits alone. i.e. no husband, friend, child etc.

Wish we could take someone with us to help eat all those burgers and nuggets! Did one to-day and mucked up the timing so I've re-scheduled it for later in the week (only done 2) so I'm a newbie, would there be a problem with this? Any advise about timings would be a BIG help as I'm finding it hard to be discreet using the stopwatch on my phone then having to note down the times before I can close my phone.

lovely hotels on the whole, however, no such thing as a free lunch.

On my experience, the report takes at least 10 hours to do properly, including photos. Very very stringent underwriting ad grammar restrictions.
