Yup. Taking our lass to see Take That means I don't get nagged for seeing the Whitby Kippers at The Glass Spider before the match on Saturday anymore

I bet they were more interesting than the match yesterday!

No not Retail Active but the job sounds similar. Sure the assistant must have spotted my mouth hanging open in confusion when he offered me a different product. Did your shop/shelf have any signage or branding?

From memory, nothing of note!

Could I have views on the dead shops please. The ones I'm referring to have a scenario where you mystery shop and then go back and do some kind of audit? Are they similar to the pharmacy visits from the same MSC? ie the mystery shop bit is quite brief and straightforward. I have done dead shops with another MSC but that was like a proper mystery shop with no reveal. Any advice/comment would be great :-)

Thankya both kindly.

Still though tryin to work out how to audit one of these places? Is it like a stock audit? "How many different boxes had they in stock?"

square-pants

Did a petrol job this afternoon ( client and competitor visit one) Filled up fuel at the client and then went on to the competitor - massive refurb going on, basically a massive hole in the ground surrounded with big metal fencing. PANTS!

Contacted MS company so waiting to hear back, will I get any kind of fee?

I was really interested in doing these yonks ago, but unfortuntately, I am not old enough. They have an age restriction so you don't get a teeny bopper going in I think.

Anyroad, ESA have some shops no one is wanting to do in my area. They were due last week but no one picked them up. I could fit them in tomorrow, but only if they up the fee more or give me mileage. Has anyone ever succeeded in extra mileage with them ever?
