    I didn't think they have you enough characters to be long winded!

    Thanks for those new Secret munching alerts. Were they for Platinum/gold, because I don't have anything new on mine yet?

    I did think this myself when I read the report card that is not a report card hey ho.

    If you aren't gold it may be a day or two before you see them. Forgot to put that on the alert oops.

    Has anyone else just received an email from Abai, with general feedback comments on the reports you have done for them in July?

    They really seem to appreciate their shoppers, the comments were lovely, what a great thing to do. :A

    They do seem lovely. I emailed last week to check it was ok to take my kids with me on a food visit - got a response saying, 'Of course you can and hope you all really enjoy your meal!'

    There are some companies out there (you know who you are) who wouldn't even bother responding.....

    All the kerfuffle about the SECRET LUNCHING visit this week! I managed to get it done, and got full marks. Woooohoooo! Plus got all kinds of stuff from the Deli. Mom is happy. Niece is happy.

    This mystery shopping thing is good for my family and friends. 2 brothers very happy with 3 lots of petrol each from me. Mom very happy with heaps of uber posh chocolate and cakes and desserts. Friends get lots of posh food. Colleagues get lots of free wine.

    Only got 3 more visits to do now. Thanks to whoever dropped the laser visit in Leeds on TERN. I am gonna get paid a time and a half for it. Woohoo! How much has everyone else got on?

    'm mega busy this month, and its only just happened really. Mainly audits and merchandising rather than MSing. I even managed to get my first three petrol jobs with Abai. I was nervous for the first one (there did seem a lot to remember) but the next two were a breeze. Looking forward to my feedbck (not!).

    Will be working about 12 hours per day for at least the next two weeks as I have a full time job as well. Luckily the kids are off and being looked after by grandparents, so I can take advantage of the situation:p. Well, these school uniforms dont buy themselves do they!:cool:

    At the risk of sounding stupid can someone help me with a technical question. I have got an email job where I submit my query through a web form. I have to then take a screen shot of the web form before I send it. I don't know how to do this though.........can you help? Thanks.

    for gfk ?

    on your keyboard youll find a PRTSC button or similar eg PRNTSC, towards the top right, when you're on the screen of what you want to capture, press this button and it saves a copy of EVERYTHING on your screen at that time.
    there are a few ways to then use this but here is one using already included software on windows.
    If you open mspaint
    ie press the windows start button at the bottom left hand corner and you can find it in ALL PROGRAMS then -> Accessories -> Paint

    click EDIT
    then PASTE

    and your captured screen will appear, you can now save this as a .jpg file to which ever folder you'd like on your hard drive and use this in the email when the time is right. Click File, Save As, then name it as you like and click the drop down arrow to change the file type to .jpg

    However, if you only want to include a limited part of the screen capture,
    you can use the arrow to select the section of the screen you want if necessary and crop it by pressing edit cut, (it will then disappear - so don't panic)
    click file -> new (dont save previous, if the option appears) then click paste again.
    The selected area should now be on screen

    you can then save this new cropped area as the file.

    Hope this helps and isnt too complicated

    Apologies if any is condescending, it isnt meant to be, I just wasnt sure of your level of IT skills so went right back to basics.

    Yes for GFK.

    Thanks for the help - I have just tried it and it works. I consider myself quite competent with tech but I guess this was just something I have never done!

    THanks again
