    I can't see any coffee on gap and am just wondering whether it's for special people only. Just intrigued.

    Think it's invite only as you need kit for it.

    It helps if you can be assertive. When I first started, I was sort of curled up and nervous and mumbled "errrm can I ermmm put this stand up please?" Quite often they said no, and I just said "ok then bye" :o

    If you stand up straight with relaxed shoulders and your head held high and walk with a purpose you look much more confident. I now say "I have a stand for ......., where do you want it putting?" and then it's harder for them to say they don't want it ;) If they do, I explain why it would benefit the store if they allowed it and sometimes I can persuade them to have it. If it's a male manager, having a nice smile helps too ;)

    I like it better than MS work too.

    Never seems to work that way for me !

    I've just been a complete noodle head and didn't get a receipt for rival petrol and only have a card receipt for normal petrol. Do you think there's any chance they'll accept it? If I reshop the rival, do you think I'll be okay with card receipt. The only problem is the times won't be very similar. Or shall I just do both of them again? I can't believe I forgot such basics. Any advice? Apart from checking and double checking I have receipts.

    Why not contact the MS co. and ask them?

    Once you have accepted the invite and registered the whole process does not take very long. Your clicker and instructions will arrive within days. When you first look at it and the instructions your hair will stand on end! However do not be put off because it is very simple and you will soon get into a routine. I have been on their panel for a few months and change my points into Amazon vouchers. I have worked it out that I get a £10 voucher just under 7 weeks. Not a great deal but hey ho for scanning my shopping its ok.

    My son reckons big brother is watching! However my argument is that enough is known about me through banks, mortgage council tax etc that my shopping habits are nothing!
    No Matter what you do there will be critics.
