I just took everything, travelling all over the place, once you get to silver it isn't too hard to get to gold, and platinum is easy after that.
The problem with bronze is you only get to see the jobs after all the others have had their pick, so there isn't much left and it is all in Inverness!

Anyone in Inverness fancy a house guest for a few weeks? :rotfl:

Does their £20 include the coffee / food / clothes you wouldn't have bought unless doing the stupid job? I'm guessing so with the amount of reimbursement only work they have.

What's more concerning is they think £20 a day is worth advertising!!! I can stick a zero on the end of that working for the good guys *sigh*

RE are going to kill this industry. Is everyone else looking at other options right now? Lol

Please excuse my ignorance, but I'm not really aware of any mystery shopping companies other than retail eyes. I did a reimbursement only shop the other day and did think, that was barely worth it.

What is the best one to apply to (ie easiest to use, decent pay etc)?

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere...

Have a look at the first couple of pages on this thread. Everything you could possibly want to know is there

Seriously been considering it actually, hotels and so on are all booked up for half term and it's a bit chilly for actual camping :rotfl:

Urgh, just finished last report. There are days when I actually dread writing up. The actual doing is fine, but when I finish work at 23:00 and the reports are supposed to be in by 00:00 I just want to scream.

Only 2 more weeks until holiday and boy do I need it (note to self DO NOT BOOK ANY MSING FOR HOLIDAY)

I was sitting the car today, having finished another Mystery shop early, waiting for the appointed time to get my chicken meal, had about 15 mins spare, and if I had a laptop or smartphone could have filled in the report. Instead I get home and then am too tired!
Might think about getting a dongle or a smartphone

Sorry all the other companies have gone out of business. Retail Eyes is the only one left

Campervans are ridic expensive to hire or buy. I've ended up buying a small caravan, as finding somewhere to stay with two dogs can be problematic. Not used it yet but maybe Inverness is calling...

I wish one of the newly registered 10,000 shoppers with RE would take one of the bloomin pubs that have been sitting and sitting on my homepage!
