    There is no fee on those RE hotel jobs is there? Just reimbursement for the room, and dinner and breakfast for one?

    I think I would need to be paid to go and sit in their restaurant and eat on my own. :(

    If anybody is interested there is a single invite on edig for an online sauce shop (those who have seen will no)

    £40 min spend at the supermarket, but if you minus the fee and it's your first order there's £7.57 on Topcashback it works out to a nice little offer:D
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    This is why I don't take them, I think they're hoping that there'll be some shoppers who have to go away in that area and think of the reimbursement as a fee as it saves them paying for a hotel. Or some desperate shoppers within walking distance who want the free food! :rotfl:

    There was one near where I work, so it would save me the petrol of driving home and back to work again the next morning. If the dinner had been room service I might have gone for it, but not to go and sit in the restaurant like 'billy no mates'!

    Has anyone had a mystery shop where the assistant kept glancing at your cleavage? It wasn't as if I was wearing a low cut top either. Not quite sure where to mention that in the feedback, if at all. He was very professional, until his eyes kept drifting downwards. I would have just left if it wasn't an ms.

    Oh, for the days when people used to stare at MY cleavage:D

    If it was bad enough that you have left if you had not been on a MS, then yes I would personally mention it.

    I think I was so flabbergasted that someone was that I didn't feel quite as offended as I might have. It's been a while.
