i never remember when i have to claim it.

You need to submit a claim - everything's still being done by cheque until further notice.

Did a lunchtime burger, and there was a sudden flurry of staff cleaning the toilets, emptying bins and cleaning outside :rotfl: Even the manager came out to chat to all the kiddies around and help the mums with their trays!

And did my second homewares audit, knocked an hour off my time

I actually hate these jobs because they're so wasteful. If we all purchase a sandwich, take a bite and return it, what a waste!!!

I actually picked really well (or badly, depending how you look at it) when I went, the sandwich was actually off. It really smelled awful, the sales assistant looked ill when she sniffed it.

My local Oxfam shop refused three dozen eggs.:rotfl:

Is there somewhere that cooks meals for homeless or elderly people in your area? You could deliver unwanted eggs or other food there.

I assume you guys hide the iphones when doing mobile phone or other gadget jobs. I've been doing mobile phone jobs and they often ask what sort of phone I have. I don't have the iphone yet so I just show them my old Nokia but last week I was really insulted when the guy recommended me a pink phone:D It wasn't his fault really, the recommedation made sense as I was asking for a prepay phone that I could use facebook and twitter on (the shame!)

When I did a Google search for mystery shopping companies I found loads of extra ones to the list on the first page of this thread. I'm wondering are any of them worthwhile. Is the list on the first page possibly a bit out of date?

Always happy to add new ones if anyone recommends them to me. But there's no point in willy-nilly-adding every single company you can find by Googling. First, its a waste of my time and second, the list is of companies that we all use, and know to be good.

I was joking when I said I took them to Oxfam!!!!:(

I live in a rural area and donate loads of my MSing stuff to impoverished local groups: independent pre-schools/playgroups, special needs groups, evergreens, church groups and the like. They will always accept anything that can go in a raffle or tombola, and some of these groups really welcome food items (e.g. for cooking activities, or for other supporters to cook items for coffee mornings, etc). So, yes, the eggs went to a good home!

I have the same problem I can't find it either. I use #DT Order No. for the first number Gap ask for, then #POS/EJ Order: for the second (KS#). They haven't queried it.

What about:

I'm a bit hard of hearing and can't use the telephone. Is there anyone here who can help me?

And the silly replies to this one include- Do you lip read or do you need an interpreter to sign for you? :rotfl:
