    Can you please check before alerting.

    Although I agree Big Graham. I couldn't help but notice I had a alert email with your name on it, but nothing there when I went to the thread. Did you make a b**b and post this on the alerts by any chance lol
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    I know it's been said a million times before but how the hell are people taking those cheap supermarkets from MF? I don't care if your in the area already I don't care if your in there doing your shopping anyway. How the hell can it in any way be financially viable to do that assignment?

    Many on here talk about how the fees are going down and that if shoppers keep taking them it will only get worse but surely most of us will work out that if a job is less than min wage then we are better off leaving it alone?

    As you can see its really got to me...breathe son...breathe..
    Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk

    I'd hazard a guess that it is people not declaring the income to the relevant authorities. I've done them for IMS when they paid mileage and done two for MF when I was walking past the stores on the way to another job. But as it stands I'd not touch them.

    MF and GAP seem to want to position themselves as the entry point for shoppers, they'll soon find that the quality of the results goes way down.

    But will the clients clock that there is an issue?

    Pay peanuts, get monkeys

    I think MF must have the highest shopper cancellation rate ever. I'm forever picking up cancelled shops (with premiums).

    Not so much up here in t'north methinks.

    Mind you I've really throttled back on my MSing. My after tax was well below minimum wage last year and with the bairn FINALLY home my time has gone WAY up in value. Seriously thinking I might jack it in all together the way fees are going lately.
