    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.

    Thank you, it does not sound appealing, I have read the pro and con but I wanted to give it a go.

    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 :)

    You don't need to.

    Hit the print button and then (assuming you are using Wndows) instead of choosing your printer to print, choose the "Adobe PDF" option.

    When you do that it "prints" to your hard drive and no paper is used.

    Has anyone received an email from Mystery Shoppers Inc.? Asking about joining them and no application fee? Is this legit?

    Not heard of them myself.
    If they were genuine they wouldn't need to contact you as they would have plenty of shoppers I'd have thought. Suppose you can look at the website- check it on google rather than following their link.

    Not sure, but I would have thought not, I usually find something to buy- computer paper is a good standby, batteries?

    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.

    Any tips for a newbie please as I have another 3 to do this week!

    What phone is it? Most let you close the stop watch without wiping the timings.
