Mystery Shopping Thread 22 *PLEASE READ THE OP FIRST**PLEASE NO CLIENT NAMES OR FEES*

It's finding something in the allowable drop-down menus that's the problem. Market Researcher is there though - that one gives me the same price as Consumer Researcher so either of them are accurate enough I think.

Can't see any cheap European supermarkets on my GR page have they swiped it from IMS (if so, hurray! another company that is permanently embedded in my bad books) or the other one, which to my knowledge hasn't had a MS programme?

In any case, I can see that I've completed 25 jobs for them, which is a nice round number, so I don't mind if it stays like that for a while

It's the other cheapo European one. It's only a competitor visit for the cheap slapper. Off to do mine in a bit. The store has 1 till and that's it. Woooo.

Ah, I see! Nice one, I myself do enjoy a quickie...job!

I understand the purpose of competitor visits, though it amuses me that they're paying you to spend money at one of their rivals! I've done them myself for ESA - wonder if the frozen shop noticed I spent more at most of the competitors I visited than their own stores?

Hello All - I am brand new to this and this is my very first post so apologies if this is in the wrong place/area! I am involved with a company who, up until now have only carried out m.shopping assignments 'down South' however, they have secured a new client and are in urgent need of M. Shoppers from the 'Newcastle' area. If any of you are from this area of the North-East and interested in securing a little more work, then please 'PM' me - think that is the correct terminology!

who is the company ?
so people who already work for them dont bother you ?

Any one else win on the we-don't-talk-about-food game of phone roulette for nice hotels this morning?

No. It was engaged for ages, and then they only had remote Scotland left when I finally got through. Quite gutted!

Woohoo, a TNS supermarket, a RA pharmacy and a MF cafe all in the same store, cuts costs dramatically, I love it when a plan comes together. Shame I'm in Falkirk though...

Quick question if you don't mind to any of you who do this full-time (or as a main job) - what do you describe yourself as when getting car insurance? Because presumably you're declaring that you're using the car for business use?

hmmmmm.... retail consultant sounds impressive :rotfl:

I usually put either merchandiser or retail merchandiser. I tend to do more merchandising/auditing than MS work though.

Thanks for tidying the thread up Andrea. I thought some of the comments were a bit mean yesterday.
