    Thanks - I have never seen anything available before I have received an email, and I thought I had a fast finger!

    You have to be quick. I got an email and logged on earlier and a job was available (supermarket next to the place you hate!) I checked my diary to see which was the best date to do it, and in that split second someone else swiped it!
    Here I go again on my own....

    That's not showing in the list of Assignments No Longer Available - that only shows 2 Torso shops. That is my nearest supermarket, after the local egg/baguette shop.

    I can't work out how Grass Roots works regarding locations? I am 1.5 miles away from it.

    I won't go to the Metro for any fee - hate the place!

    Only been once so I'm still kinda enchanted / confused by it.
    Just picked up another Reef for tomorrow, making 4 for tomorrow plus one of the other "red" shops. I can't see the others that were on there though they were in Makkem land and heading down to monkey hanging territory so I wouldn't have took them.

    Got 3 reefs for Sunday which is nice.
    Someone's taken the Metro one, so they've managed that one. Wouldn't bother myself even if I was walking past. Did 5 price checks in the Metro last week. Each one was just 12 products, which took less than a minute to collect and the fee for each was more that this toy shop.

    Why why why would someone do that?
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    Probably a mid-range RE, I 've had longer and I've had shorter. I was after something so it was worth it for me.

    Woo Hoo

    Hope Natwest are like that!
    Yes they are! My child benefit goes in on a Monday but is always available to withdraw on Saturday before.

    But unfortunately my MSing money gets paid into HSBC so it looks like I'll be cancelling my daughter's 10th birthday party this weekend :(

    Haven't got a penny to my name! :(. :(. :(. :(
  • I'm seeing different fees from shop to shop for the RA toy shops. Some 50% more than others.
    Still a joke though.

    Don't worry if you have missed the GR slappers. They put the weekend slappers on first, and then a few days later the weekday slappers go on. So good luck and hope you all get some a few slappers each :A:A

    I would love it if I could pick up just 1 slapper!

    I was lucky enough to get two Saturday slappers:)
