    My friend's dh visits a bookies a few times a week and its so obvious that a ms visits.

    I love the bookmakers' shops, I get to place free bets (the last one came in at 5s :D) and play the games machines.

    I'm sure they know that I know that they know....well you get my jist.

    As BG says, we just do as we're instructed.

    Same here! Although mine is over a month since I did the visit. I'll hunt the stuff out when I get home

    Erm, same here! It's been weeks. And I have no idea which job it was.

    There's ways and means to do those and come across as natural, not necessarily everyday occurrences, but enough to throw 9 out of 10 members of staff off the scent.

    I don't think it's that strange that you use the loo, I see punters in and out and using the loo all the time. It's not always clear that we are the MSers especially not at the one I did on sunday where 1 staff member sat on the machine playing the whole time I was there!

    I have made out i'm in 'killing time' waiting for the missus or something.

    I tend not to take the 'stupid scenario' ones because irrespective of how cool you try to play it you will look like a d*ck

    Ages since I've been on here....

    But I just got assigned a holiday to Crete by MF. So apparently I'm flying out in less than 2 weeks. A bit in shock.

    Has anyone done a holiday (flights,hotel included) mystery shop before? Is the paperwork much harder than the normal shop?

    Scared that I'll book it and then not get reimbursed.

    congrats mate. I have been offered a few times now but always during term-time so no good for me!

    Indeed, I forgot what a busy boy I'd been last month :-)

    Welcome back Teendude, those jobs are pretty straightforward and you know the score about reading stuff so I wouldn't worry.

    I've been with MF for over 5 years and have more than 3000 points. How do you get offered the travel jobs?
