MF outdoor centres. That fee - oh my...

My friend has just forwarded an assignment from MF for a laugh and if you think the fee for the cheap shop is pathetic - its a quarter of that! It's just finding prices for 10-12 plants in one of the largest garden centres in the region!

My god very bad. At least with the cheap shop you can get free Milk bread too.

Another quality report submitted...

Due to system fault on one MSC's system, I saw a previous shopper's rejectted report. It made me feel so much better about the odd "bit rushed" report that I occasionally put in and am really self-concious of. At least I go to the right shop and don't take a validation picture of the store manager looking out the door straight at me :rotfl:

Surely no one will take them? There are way too many companies dropping their fees at the moment and this is just a joke!

There's a car job on GFK around here that's about half the fee I've had for car jobs from other firms. I was busy, so I declined it due to time constraints (couldn't get it done before the deadline). After the deadline, it appeared again and I saw the fee, read the brief and decided it wasn't worth it. It sat there for a couple of days, so I shot them an email politely saying I'd do it if we could come to an agreement on the fee. The job disappeared off the list, and I got an email back saying another shopper had "just" picked it up.

And last night, the same job popped back up. I'm just waiting for the phone call now asking if I'd be "prepared to help them out" :rotfl:

*twiddles thumbs* *waits impatiently for end of month pay days*. I had a lot of expense heavy shops and the end of may and could really used paid now!

Yeah, I was there last month. Luckily, I do a lot of phone shops that don't cost anything. Think there's a fair few kicking about still need doing up your way?

I can't see these visits on MF -- either I'm not in the right area or I've not earned enough points to be offered such premium work. :rotfl:

Had a chat with a woman at work yesterday who was telling me about how she has great fun at weekends doing mystery shopping. Oh, I said, that sounds interesting... do tell me more! Then I heard all about how you get free stuff and sometimes they even pay you cash too, and you're supposed to ask all these stupid questions but no-one ever knows if you just make it up as long as you say everything was fine.

Oh well.

OMG :eek: the garden centers I could see earlier have gone...
I hope RE took them off.
please dear god if people accepted them we are all gonna sink.!

for those who missed them you would have to do 2 to have enough to get a shopping trolley.

Hope you told her about Gyp, she sounds ideal for their fast food jobs!
