Mimi, that's about £510. That's a lot of book tokens, or Christmas shopping. (I'm sure I've done the Maths right)
Please use them, every time you post I see them there and think I'll use them. I've only recently started with them and find the vouchers really handy. Especially this time of year.

Hi all,

As you guys know I'm still new to this MS malarkey even though I feel like I've known you all for years (wipes away tears).. anyway. Has anybody had much experience of the Car showroom visits? Do you end up getting caught in the sales patter even though it says thats not what your'e there for.

I am hard nosed enough to say I just need a price please or I could always say I'll keep the horse.

Thanks

Is anyone else having problems logging onto Tern assignments today or is it just me?

Hi guys

I have some gfk petrol jobs to do over the next week. The notes say that you mustn't be accompanied and obviously I wouldn't take my children into the shop and expect to be able to do a good job. However, I need to drive past two of the petrol stations when I'll have someone with me. Do you think it would be ok to have another adult with me so long as they did nothing other than sit in the car? Or will I have to make a special trip to these stations on my own at another time?

Thanks

Do people actually win money at casino's? Sorry, I have never been to one so I don't know. I am just wondering because ESA have upped the fees for they are desperate and I think it would be rude for me to not accept it.

The shopper instructions say to bet to exhaustion on the roulette tables so you can't win. You have to keep on going until it's all gone.

edit:I would say for the first bet if you put £10 on Black then hopefully win. Then take £10 of that win and put that in your pocket and start again going through the spend allowance and always taking whatever you can that's exceeds the spend allowance and starting again from the beginning until it all runs out.

Didn't actually read the brief, just noticed the fee hike and thought hmmm. But if that's the case, then balls to that! LOL.

you can do, its knowing when to stop and what to play

blackjack (21) can be quite good where as the odds/returns on roulette are quite rubbish if you just do black or red, have a watch of the casino type late night programmes on itv etc to get an idea of options for roulette

some have electronic games you can / have to use too
never ate a meal at one though, just had free sandwiches when ive visited with friends after a night out

Off Topis a bit I know, but I'm in shock!! The festival I go to every year has posh camping (RIP its called) and it normally takes 2-3 months to sell out... It's taken a week!!!! So glad I borrowed the money last week to get mine, but now I have to work my bum off to get the £385 together to pay back!

Bring on the shops!!
