Morning all
Hugs to mrs 3dogs have a safe journey

Fascinated about the mystery shopper mahruz was that you?
My sis is looking for work this might be right up her street, any advice on how to get into it and how good the income is

Might brave a trip to T's today, can't stand the thought of a £5 off £40 voucher going to waste! Even though I'm sure I'll struggle to spend it

I have been a M/S for around 14 years the work isn't as good as it used to be with fee's falling I still do some but now just cherry pick as some places want you to work for nothing (ie the "meal" is the payment)

LOL at mystery shopping - dont we all do that anyway going on the amount of time we spend in there scanning stuff and then of course checking that CS are doing their jobs properly!!

Check the PI team have done their jobs right and checking the HO complaints dept follow up with retraining and gift cards when needed
Yep thats my idea of mystery shopping shame tesco dont realise how much we are saving them :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Hi tazmac
Thanks but jtd'ing is too stressful for me, vivid memories of sleepless nights in DTD days come flooding back.I think I might do a normal shop, my son has developed a fetish for cheese strings and eaten 4 packets this last week, I may as well stock up, he's tiny the amount he eats I'm surprised he isnt overweight
Hopefully will be spending a day or two up your neck of the woods over half term (actually think we're nearer tweets). But doubt if I'll get much T's ing done with 3 whining kids don't know how you lot manage it.

Yes I do T's

As for what you have to do, it depends you are given a brief and you follow that ie a visit to a toy store, maybe you would have to ask, is a certain toy suitable for a 4 yr old (when its clearly not as it says age 5+) and see if the assistant picks up on the fact its not suitable and offers you an alternative product, for that you may get a £5 for doing the job and a fiver to spend in the store, the high paying jobs are few and far between, when you start out you will be visiting burger bars for a burger and £2-3 *pay*

Thanks to kadison too and everyone else that's offered me holiday tips....all on my list, armed and ready for a visit to the travel agent to squeeze as much info as I can from them, without actually booking :D

I used to own a travel agency.

It was quite heart breaking sitting there day after day giving people the benefit of our knowledge and experience - sometimes wasting many hours of our precious time trying to help put together fantastic holiday plans for ungrateful people who came in to "squeeze as much info" as they could from us before booking elsewhere.

It felt like people valued our knowledge enough to come in and ask for our help and advice but not enough to pay for it. Not sure how they thought we paid for premises, salaries etc.

I quite understand if you think a travel agent is a waste of time and you can do it all yourself - good for you, go for it. But it really gets my back up when people think it is OK use the information available in an agency but not support it financially. Next year when you want to pick their brains they won't be there - they will have gone bust.
