Just think of the money :D.

Gfk have a shop that has to be done today. Once I make my purchase the fee wil be £3. Sorting out the kids childcare, fighting through the traffic and losing a big chunk of my afternoon isn't worth it for that but I wondered if it is possible to contact them about a higher fee. Has anyone done this before?

I have done this before, but they were well and truly stuck (it was a historical site some distance away). It's definitely worth asking, but you might struggle to get a response at the weekend.

Well, I'm now in the middle of writing up my 11 egg jobs from yesterday! And yes, I have 66 eggs currently sitting on the kitchen table, at least 2/3 of them will be going to friends and family!

Once I got into the swing of it, yesterday was really good - driving around East Lothian in the glorious sunshine. Felt bad going into one of them though cause it was their final day of trading yesterday and the shelves were bare (and I mean bare!). Did the best I could, but I have to say the atmosphere in the store was really good, the staff were all really upbeat, so top marks there!

Then another one I did I got asked directly if I was a mystery shopper. I said I wasn't but asked her what made her think I was - she said "I don't know, just had a feeling when you bought a sandwich and some eggs". Hmmm, well why didn't you score 100% then....??

Hope everyone's having a cracking day - I'm off to cut some grass soon (well, it's more of a jungle!), so need the sun to come out.

The money is not important to me.I would just like to see service standards improve in the retail sector.

I've checked the 1st page....

Can someone tell me when REACT pay? The invoice has gone in but no sign of any funds.
We're skint this month too so could really do with it.

Just FYI, the burger job has changed a couple of points...

Once the food has been presented, double check the correct order is contained in the bag and assess at least
three fries before driving away from the window to ensure you are assessing their quality as you receive them.

And my personal favourite...

All Drive Thru evaluations must be completed using a car. It is not acceptable for mopeds or motorbikes to be used for DT assignments.

I've torn my achilles tendon so i'm strapped up and have been ordered to rest it for a week :mad: I've loads of photo jobs, jewellery audits and underground sarnies I could be getting on with but hopefully it will be better to get everything done next weekend.
