    One item is all they will reimburse, keep in mind the reimbursement is in Euro, so drop a denerous third off for excahnge rates etc.

    I got reimbursed for more than 1 item on the last ones I did. Got a bracelet and 3 add ons for not much over the reimbursement (across 2 stores). Made an excellent gift for my little sister who happened to say that she wanted one!
  • Thanks Weeg and N.I.M, I hadn't clicked realised that the reimbursement was Euros! Right, off to find out the current rate!

    Will send you a PM

    I'm doing a late night slapper, and am just wondering what medicines people have bought/how many packets of painkillers you're allowed to buy at once?

    My first mystery shop came back very well. I know grades don't count but I was pleased to see I didn't go wrong. :)

    I liked the shop because I didn't need to carry out any of those tests to see if I can answer questions correctly. Now I need to find more companies like that.
    Cup of Tea? :coffee:

    I noticed this too, but I guess at least they are being fair :D

    Right up until the next day when I got asked to do half of the central belt...

    At least it filled the freezer.

    I think I am in :love: with Meena off of GFK. She always increases the fee for me when I ask. Did a phone shop for her today with a super king sized premium!

    Only downside was that the mos has probably never heard of or used a shower/bath. By jove, the smell that emanated from him was enough to make your stomach turn x 10 and do a few somersaults as well. He shook my hand at the end and I almost fainted. I actually put the offpetting odour in the "other" section of the mos details. Had I been a genuine customer, I would have walked out with that awful stench in there.

    Anything with paracetomol in it. As soon as you buy one, the self service till goes bleep bleep bleep. You could buy Lemsip if you actually will use them as they have paracetomol in them. They sure as hell go beep beep beep too.

    I think they have just changed the booze to medicine. It's more or less the same thing they are checking. Oh and if you look super young, take your driving licence with you.

    I would normally open the file up so it is on my computer screen, then do a print screen (Fn & Prt Sc)

    Then open up Microsoft Paint , press CTRL V or click Paste, edit the image as needed. Save as a JPEG. The file will be smaller and might just upload.
