    I have no idea what you're talking about! What is "no cloths"?
    Should be no CLOTHES which would be bare
    but if their spelling is this bad, it might explain why they can't pass the test :)

    Well, I've been accepted to do a mystery shop. My first.

    I'm TERRIFIED...!

    Wow just wow!

    Got an email earlier to say that there was work with ESA and when I logged in they were all gone.

    I find it really ironic that jobs seem to go faster once the fees get annihilated...

    Perhaps shoppers are thinking the fees are due to drop more and want to get in before they do!

    Having said that the one after department stores have just risen by £2 compared to the last lot :eek: probably a typo... ;)

    It only went to shoppers involved in a certain project...

    I am in ALtrincham tomorrow - I think I am stomping on Mysterious Girls home turf :-s

    Interesting news from 2009 in case people missed it - I did - to show someone listens to us

    You go for it. I've been too busy with my other job this week to do any MSing. The fees are so low now that I'll only do an assignment now if I happen to be in the area for other reasons. Did 4 in Altrincham last week which only took an hour so was a nice little earner.

    The town is a dump, half the shops are empty. Check yours still exists before making the trip.

    Found an invite to be a mystery shopper from RE in my junk box this morning...obviously 10,000 new shoppers is not enough!

    Had to laugh at some of the requirements:

    After every mystery visit to a location, you will be required to give a detailed, yet easy to understand report.

    **We will still not have enough information in the report and will constantly ask you for more and more details..

    Applicants are expected to be observant, have a good memory and an eye for detail`

    ** This includes remembering things you weren`t even asked to look for in the brief! Also all details may include such things as `How many pimples did the sales assistant have on the end of his wooden nose ?

    Haven't posted on here for a while as I'm doing 2 jobs at the mo which pay miles more than ms'ing!

    Anyway, I haven't received the scandalous email from the company-who-cannot-be-named. Anyone care to pm me the details?
