A shame that they don't sell gift cards for Mr Ts (unless someone knows different), as you could then buy Argos gift cards from Mr Ts, use in Argos to buy some Mr Ts gift cards ... use those in Mr Ts as part of your shop to buy more Argos ... rinse and repeat ... picking up extra points and increasing your value by 25% on each :j. I am sure that they have thought of that though as no doubt you can't use gift cards to buy gift cards (though apparently in Argos you can, or at least some have), but I can dream .

You would just need one of them where you could then use the gift card to pay off a balance/build up a balance that you could then get refunded/withdraw and kerrching - your very own money making machine :cool:.

Of course, if you found the right store with the right offers on, you could cash out through a game, mobile phone or console trade in (e.g. CEX), if the cash price was right. An alternative approach would be to use cash in Mr Ts to buy Argos gift card, Argos gift card to buy XXX gift card for a store that you wanted to buy an item from in the first place - a sort of chain transaction to leverage your initial money.

I have it on good authority that you can't use giftcards in Argos to buy giftcards. However, it doesn't mean that all SA are aware of that

I'm on 8.7 and there seems no rhyme or reason in the apportioning of trials, when I have queried it in the past I have just been told that it's all down to demographs, which is fine but it seems that quite often new agents get trials and old ones don't, but as I have said I have had quite a few trials recently so can't complain (even though I do):rotfl:

Mind you, can't really complain. All the trials I get tend to be awful. Did anyone else get that horrid book a few years ago which was awful?

I quite like Pinecone, they have sent me some really decent items to test, and they pay £4 for each survey, before and after the trial.

To be fair, I recently had: Lambrini, Handy cans, Cookies, Dairy Free, A1500 Knorr, both stock pots and gravy pots, Colgate A1500 so it's not really like they're neglecting me:rotfl:

Yep, I'm doing well out of Bzz too. Have had Dairylea, Dairy Free, Stock pots and gravy pots, John Frieda full repair, persil non-bio, colour catcher and dove compressed.. :T All since August. Yippee.
The worst one was the Dairy Free - eurgh, disgusting yogurts, I would never part with money for them.

I am still seething from the time they re adjusted the numbers and I dropped down from 9 something to 7.8. At the time I was working on three trials so numerous times a week I was doing reports, uploading photos, keeping up with surveys etc everything I was asked to plus tweeting and fb sharing so why they down graded me I will never know.

The emphasis now is more on social media. I've only got 40 on my fb list and there is a limit to how many times you can discuss gravy pots. That's the only trial I've done in the last 2 months so not much room for improvement.

Anyway I am doing Dove now so at least it's something.

Is that the Bzz book, all about Bzz marketing? Loved that, I bzzed loads, I researched some local advertising agencies and emailed them Bzz with the link, found some advertising blogists and sent them Bzz and links:rotfl:

My last 2 bzz's were naff! The dove colour protect made my hair fall out and the mr t club card challenge app thing was carp! Hopefully deo & buscuits will be better

PC new members only get 3 now.

Also PC are very very fussy about their no discussion with anyone rule.
