Was that the horse with one horn?

I occasionally do these if I know I'll be in the area anyway and working other shops. I generally get hungry after the first 10.

You are right, it's not a money making exercise by anybodys standards.

I have done that pub once before a while back because I was meeting my OH there anyway (she works in Altrincham).

RE would have to pay me far more and cover the whole bill, to ever get me to go in that pub -plus I'm on a no alcohol for January so I can't do it anyway

I never go there either. Have you got much work on Skiergirl? I've only managed to get one job for next week, in wytho I need some more banks. Have you seen any eggs this month? I saw an alert for them but didn't see any on their site.

The alert was for the Midlands stores, I have been looking back and think there is a pattern to them being uploaded and expecting them next week at some point.

does any one else do RA overnight hotel stays for 2 ?
been invited to apply, but is it worth the application form and 750 word essay they want filling in ?

Well, I've only done ones in Scotlands and the hotels left a lot to be desired. I may have been unlucky though

I hope they need doing in Jan, could do with a big fat Feb 10th pay packet. Need some more Gfk jobs quick smart. Daughter's 10th birthday end of Feb which needs urgent funding for presents and party.

I can't see the eggs being done till early Feb now so wont be paid until March. GFK banks should be ok for a few bob in time though. How's your month been? Mine as been pretty average althought the GR audits have helped.

Just back from the waterearth shop. Loads of really good bargains on Xmas stuff. Beautiful china xmas platter reduced to 4.99- £20 off. Resisted temptation but still managed to spend £20 over the job reimbursement- This is why I don't go to this shop...

Quite slow for me. I don't do any auditing, don't know how to get into it. I've done 3 banks, a phone shop, 9 pharmacies, 3 petrol stations, a burger paying twice the fee and a burger paying 6 times the fee, an electrical store, a tech visit and a carpet shop. Would expect to normally do this in a week, not a month!

Fee only paying jobs for me this year, unless the spend is less than 3 pounds and a fee on top. No more restaurants for reimb only and no junk food unless its at a premium.

I think I must have been lucky this month, I dont seem to have stopped since the new year but only really earing average money so feels like I have worked very hard for little reward.
