Dropbox gives you free cloud storage - great for backing up. It's also great for sharing photos and things with friends, if you don't want to put them somewhere public.

How does that work? I'm just picturing a big pink cloud with photos of your friends sitting on it. Old polaroids.

Is it safe? Why would they do it for free? Isn't your stuff likely to be hacked into? Sorry a lot of questions. Do tax inspectors like clouds?:D

Yes, it's safe. It's passworded and people can only access what you invite them to access - via passwords. The free account gives you 2Gb of storage - if you want more, you pay. That's why they do free accounts - as a step to paid accounts. And yes, it's as secure as you would expect.

I'm no expert in cloud storage - it's just handy.

Yes, today is the day................payment from Gap has arrived:j

Plus in my case two emails saying I had forgotten to submit my receipt and if I didn't do it very soon that the world would possibly end. Have now submitted it (it really did slip my mind).

I have an external harddrive I keep all my videos on and my parking tickets etc. Generally however I also email myself monthly a copy of everything I set up a Hotmail account for just mysteryshopping storage its great!

Think this has been asked a few times lately too, so have a skim back or search to find more peoples answers.
General consensus is that the first one can take a bit of time, but once you are more used to them they are pretty quick.

Assuming you are talking about the GfK availability audits?!? (Apologies if you mean something different that I've just not seen before!)

I'm not allowed to do them as I work for the pharmacy, but whenever our audit lady comes she's usually in 30-40 mins or so, and we're a fairly big store. I used to work in a little branch and they were quicker.
Plus remember, any extra time they take compared to a 'normal Mystery Shop' will probably be less than writing up a detailed report after, as I believe these are just a big ticklist.

Why can't I get onto the React job board? Had no problems with it, now it's giving me the 'You don't have cookies enabled' message (lies), I bypass that and log-in anyway, it'll load every page on React EXCEPT the Job Board. I still can't get into RE on Firefox (but I can on Safari)... any suggestions? Thinking a quit and restart Firefox might do the trick...
