Telephone them, there's a shopper contact number in the brief.

Not sticking up for RE proofreaders, but maybe yours has a sense of humour? If I was proofreading and came across a statement so obviously wrong like that, I would feel compelled to email the shopper with a slightly sarcastic question!

I can see the humour in it anyway

Possibly!
I was tempted to reply and say "Oh sorry, I must have made a typing error. There was actually 33 staff behind the counter, and 44 staff on the shop floor"!!!

Hi,
I would like to say hello and ask a quick question to the forum members.
I’m from a new professional membership body which has been set up to support mystery shoppers (and other field staff involved in face-to-face marketing). Our organisation is about to launch and we have a big money saving offer that we would like to make exclusively available to MSE forum members.
I’ve read the forum rules and appreciate that you don’t want companies intruding on your personal space merely advertising their services, however it’s difficult for us to share a discount code with you if we don’t tell you who were are first.
I’ve attempted to contact the MSE team via a direct message but we’ve been unable to receive anything other than an auto-response in reply (I guess they’re pretty busy) so we thought we’d ask you.
Would members be happy for us to post a (very) brief introduction on here explaining who we are so that we can share a discount code that will give forum members 75% off our membership fee? (We aren’t offering this discount to anyone else and the code would be exclusively released to this forum).
If you could let us know your thoughts that would be great, as we’re keen to engage with you but hate companies who spam probably as much you do!
Many thanks,
Adam

I have no objections, but feel free to PM me if others object.

For those of you registered on MSUK you might like to have a read of the responses to this company on their boards (which they posted on over a month ago).

I have several objections, which have been discussed by other people on other forums, and would therefore kindly ask that you don't post about this on here.

Further, if noone from the MSE team has responded, I'd have thought that you should err on the side of caution and not post about your money-making scheme. For this reason, I've reported your post as abuse.

Spotted the companies Promo jobs pro and stuck for staff on another forum. Does anybody use them and are they any good?

Dunno, give us clue what you mean, in English, and perhaps someone will be able to help...

I registered with stuck for staff for 6 months. Never got any work from it but that was partly down to me not having time in the working week, plus I don't really have an appropriate CV which a lot of the companies ask for. Lots of work on there, I just didn't get the chance to do anything with the info.
