    Holy cow, how horrible was it visiting a supermarket today for the company we don't talk about? I had to go through a whole palaver, and it took for ever. I really, really, really don't want to go next week

    LOL. Not as bad as the urgent one. Ended up buying shed loads of the said item? Normally the item I am looking for is never there, this time there were flamin' loads of them! Good grief, it was harder than a full on intense gym workout! Next time I do such visits for said company, I want to know what I might end up buying! Did anyone else do these and do their arms hurt as much as mine? :o

    GFK money in (HSBC bank account).
    GR said they made payment yesterday, but it will hit my account on 28th as will REACT (wow, how posh is that, just checked on online banking and it tells you when pending payments in next few days will come)
    Just waiting on ESA now and BARE hahaha!

    It annoys me with GFK that you can't see the status of your jobs once you submit them. Never sure whats coming through each payday.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    I have a spreadsheet and enter all jobs on there as soon as they're written up. So I know exactly how much I am owed from each company at any given time.

    I always work on a cut off of the 9th and 24th anything done before those dates will generally be paid in the next pay period. It’s very seldom is wrong.
  • 1 Bare payment and 2 Mystery Outsource payments outstanding for me for jobs completed in November. Would have been nice to have received those before Christmas but oh well. Thanks to those mystery shopping companies who did manage to make payments. Was especially surprised by Gaps early payment this month. Most appreciated.
