    Thanks DPJ - so just the same thing as last week, but swapping the cards for different ones?

    Yup, just the same, but swap the recipe cards.

    And I know what you mean about handing the leaflets things out. I feel like a right berk, even more so than usual. :)

    Has anyone been given any train journeys yet? So much for it starting on 11 June!

    Who is doing train journeys? I travel London - Poole a few times a month, would be nice to get a free ticket.

    Huge Hangers?

    Don't think so fella.

    Oh, hold on. Do you mean the 'big Hartlepool' one?

    Nah mate, Dragonville over Durham way. Still haven't moved yet to Hangerville. Fingers crossed though, it's two weeks tomorrow.

    It's TNS but not that journey I'm afraid. You have to do specific journeys and it probably wouldn't work with ones you actually need to make if that makes sense. I'm not doing any this time due to other work I'm doing but enjoyed them last time.

    Hi everyone

    Hoping you can all help. I've signed up for a few mystery shopping companies (MF, ABAI, RA,GAP,GFK) and have completed a couple of assignments for MF. Now I am starting to build my confidence I would like to get some slightly better paid jobs if they are available. Can anyone recommend the best co.s to be signed up with or PM me? Also can anyone advise if you need to do some of the lower paid work to build up your reputation with a company? I've seen some people commenting on hotel stays and mystery shop visits which pay 3 or 4 times the MF rate can anyone advise where best to look?
    it does not always work like that as some of the firm are dropping the fees in front of our eyes, even though we have been shopping for the same firm for 5 years or more, problem being more and more shoppers come along and the jobs get picked no matter how poor the fee
    think its the only job i have had and geta pay cut rather than pay rise :(

    Has anyone here had issues with rescheduling with ABAI? I had two shops with them but the first took a long time meaning I wouldn't have been able to get the second job done by the cut off time. I informed them asap but haven't heard back yet so am a bit worried...
