The gyp meal includes a goats cheese salad which is good, not for delivery though . I was intollerant to cows milk for nearly 15 years but was fine with goat milk (after a couple of months dairy free).

Ooh, I might have to give it a try. I forgot about the salad option! I was told I'll be fine with goats milk and also with some of the Probiotic yoghurts as the live bacteria in them break the milk proteins down before it is digested. It is amazing though the amount of products available which contain milk. Even some flavours of crisps!

Mystery shopping wise, it is quite quiet for me this week. Pizza job tonight (service and pizza had better be bl**dy good!) and then 2 fast supermarkets on the weekend.

Hmmm... anyone else having a fun time with the RE website this morning? It says I have 2 jobs available, 1 pub and 1 nightclub. I can see the nightclub fine (and have done for about a month!), but the pub job just isn't there, even if you click through on the right category.
At first I thought someone had nabbed it, but it's still showing as available on the front page even if I log in and out again.
Not hugely bothered, as it's probably miles away- but I like to *know* which jobs I'm turning down!

Just looked at GRG, the absolutely awful assignment I did for them - when the sa's were horrid and couldn't be @rsed - has been paid! 6 days after I did the job!! :j

Oh bother. My local RE pizza has just come up for this week and I could really have used that, but it's delivery only and I live too far away. :-(

Sorry to be picky, but could you remove the client name from your post please? Thanks!

Ooops! Missed that. Now removed.

Um... bit of a strange one this - but when searching for assignments has a city from Gyp ever disappeared? One of the ones I usually see doesn't seem to be there anymore... just wondered whether it was on my account only or in general.

Thanks x

I'm doing a jewellery shop for TERN in the next few weeks. I'm purchasing something for my niece. Does anyone know if there is a limit as to how much you can spend? Also, they want me to send it normal first class post. Is this right? If I am buying jewellery and it gets lost or what have you, RM won't help as they specifically say jewellery must be sent special delivery. I'm confused.

Towns and cities vanish from the list if there are no jobs available in those places. Once new jobs are released the towns will appear again!

Phew!! Thanks Scaredy Cat - lolz thought I might have been on my way out with them! I did receive an email saying that I will not be required to do a certain burger place - they did take over 7 minutes to deliver my food so assumed it was because of that!

Hi Mimi,
The spend is £50 but says be prepared to spend up to £60, and as they have sent a pre-paid envelope then they obviously don't want it sent back recorded. I will just get a proof of postage.
