    Simple, the last week in each month you look on the job boards regularly (a few times each day) and then again in the first week of the month. It seems to work for me.

    Only been doing 2 or 3 shops a week lately as I'm too busy with my contracting but busier this week. Got two slappers, two easy banks, MF cheapo supermarket (I know, but I am going there anyway) and three TNS quickies at the weekend. Oh and a React posh chocs:j

    It's my first one so quite excited! I did the posh chocs that PiP had but not seen those visits for a while. Paid to eat chocolate, does it get any better than that! :D

    Oh no sorry, what I meant was how do you do that many in just 2 days i.e. fitting in all the visits and doing all the write ups for them, rather than how you get that many in the first place.

    I would book the visits, do them, then sit at home all evening cursing myself for accepting them while I put off doing the reports :T Literally the only motivator for doing them is how annoyed I would be if I didn't get paid.

    Is it the "mariah carey / whitney houston / celine dion" like chocolate shop or the other one? I've only done the other one and it's rather poncey and over the top. Makes a perfect gift.

    Get home for 6pm and then work work work. It helps if you are a fast typer. Also, copy and paste and then edit helps a lot. I actually really like deadlines so I get a kick out of it.
