Couple of things I want to talk about today.

#1 Has anybody had their RE money today? Mine hasn't turned up. Very odd, it's always in on 30th.
#2 Need to have a think about how to word this because I could get myself into trouble so I'll post later but just to say; If anybody is doing one of the BARE exam jobs feel free to pm me if they also feel quite uncomfortable with the last bit of the scenario.

PM'd you regarding #2 - if I'm honest, the whole thing makes me feel rather uneasy.

I am doing mine tomorrow was wondering if you could give me a wee bit of advice...
I have to ask for unavailable sizes in both childrens clothes and shoes departments, the shop I'm visiting both these things are in view of each other... is there away to ask for these and change my mind without looking like a complete idiot? :P
(I have to do the same for the men's but that's a bit easier cos I have to buy something from them in the end).

Also did you do a visit that covered all three departments?
I'm a bit confused about whether I'm meant to make an enquiry in the women's section or not....

If I understand the brief then I'm going to have to make a total of 6 enquiries....

I did both the 2 and the 3 departments today. What I did was to ask about women's shoes, kids clothes, and then go to men's, back to kids shoes and then finishing up in women's sales. A bit messy but I feel it makes me look less daft (!)

Anybody else done an ESA clothes shop today and entered their results only to have them disappear? Just phoned them and they want me to put them in again. Thinking about it as it's a lot of faff for very little reward

Are you asking for more money, because I certainly would be.

Hi everyone,

I've joined alot of these sites today as I think this is something I might enjoy. Do most of you find it financially worthwhile? or is it only something you would do for the short term?

I'm not sure if I'm being unrealistic in thinking it could be a long term thing,

many thanks

That's a good idea to split the kids bit into two visits.

Did you make an enquiry in the men's bit?

Thanks!

I personally do it casually and to be honest don't think there is enough jobs/assignments near me that I'd be comfortable doing in order to make it a big part of my income.

I do it for the extra pocket money :P

There are people who do it full time and are very successful with it but I think it takes them a while to become established.

I recommend just signing up with as many of the sites listed on the first page as you can and take on a couple of different jobs to get a taste for it

Has anyone picked up a torso beauty shop on GR? I'm confused. It says in one section on the visit details that there is only a fee. In the other part it says we will reimburse £x of the purchase. So is that the fee and £x reimbursement of the is the £x amount of reimbursement part of the fee?

It's changed since the last wave because that had £y fee and £x reimbursement, not just one. Eeeeek. I'm easily confused.

Probably some tea tree stuff to make my skin remain spotless because of it's anti bacterial properties or some vitamin c stuff to make my skin glow and feel revived! LOL. Bloody hell, I still remember all the stuff I was told when I did my last visit in December!

PS. Pinched your local torso shop, devil phone shop, slapping supermarket and holiday shop. Am I bad or am I bad? ;)
