    Right I have a TNS supermarket booked but could some kind person in plain English explain exactly what I have to do. I take it I have to visit the Mandatory areas mentioned plus the additional areas!

    I am totally confused (which at my age does not take much)! and any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks peeps

    Spender, What specifically aren't you sure about? You should have about 5 areas to ask where something is, C/S desk and till, toilets, community noticeboard, some departments you have to ask a specific question. You can take the shopping list in and make discrete notes. Pretty easy really. I think the brief is more confusing that it needs to be.

    Have you read the briefing notes? I did a visit today and couldn't find any difficulty in following the brief. Which part are you having trouble with? I'm a little confused.

    There's a very good step by step guide to these shops on the first page / 3rd post under TNS FAQ....

    thanks for all the answers, I have reread the brief and off I shall venture! I believe in the end I need to check about 8 different areas and the petrol station and the cafe! I think I am having a moment!

  • anyone else had a queries in submitting assignments with GFK. I accepted a letter assignment followed the brief and emailed a copy and since been deallocated. very strange. Emailed them twice with no response.
