    Me: The first one sounds ideal
    MoS: Errrrrrrrrm
    Me: Yes, that first phone on that tariff seems the ideal solution
    MoS: So that's this and that, would cost you about this much

    Yay! Douglas Stafford are sending me on my Holidays - All the way to North Charleston, South Carolina! Either that of they've uploaded a wrong google map, and I am still going to a Shopping Centre (SC) in the west of Scotland.

    Did anyone pick up a GFK mattress visit? Mine was closed. Hopefully they will still give me something for having tried it.

    TNS and RA are best for closed shops, they give you the full fee.

    I'm not dragging anyone along on a MS to try a mattress so can't do those unfortunately!

    I got half fee when I had a GFK electricals that had shut down so you should get that as a minimum amount.

    I only picked it up because I walked past it the other day on way to B and Q to get a heater and saw it was closed down for good. Woop! :D

    I recently did a shop in a bed store - it was great fun! I think after that I decided to do this mystery shopping a bit more regularly.

    :rotfl:Love it!

    You'd think the client would know because they people going round the stores taking their fixtures out before they shut down.
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?
