    Anyone had any luck with the React app supermarkets?

    Mine worked fine on Tuesday. Did the report which has been marked as well.

    Have since deleted the app as it was loading up on it's own all the time.

    I don't think I will be doing any of these again unless it's like a circuit like the UKIMS ones.
  • I am hoping to purchase this camera kit http://www.dogcamsport.co.uk/lawmate-mystery-shopping-kit.html within the next week or so. Could someone tell me if I need to buy anything else e.g. larger SD card?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    You want lots of smaller SD cards, I have found 8gb about the best value, always go for Class 10 ones and a decent make. I'd be getting another couple of those "6 hour" batteries as you'll not get 6 hours out of them I'd also be wanting a car charger too.

    Just in the supermarket now and have answered the questions but I don't think it managed to locate me, was constantly looking for a gps signal, even though all location services were activated.
  • Does anyone else find the fuel cost thing on Google maps useful? Just I use it all the time and their "new Google maps" doesn't have this feature. Shame..

    Got a job today and i'm a bit worried, I'm short sighted and I really struggle reading small writing, so name badges are a problem. I've never had a company come back and complain about me not getting the name (sometimes I do get them) but this job today (first job with this MS company) they seem really quite insistent that names must be taken. :(

    Anyway, i'm going to go and do it and hopefully if I give a really good, detailed report, they won't mind too much. Fingers crossed.

    Let's just hope the rain stays off for a while! :D

    I've never used the Google maps for fuel costings but have used Google maps when visiting a new town and have a number of shops to do, I find it's absolutely spot on.

    Just done one now, this may help someone, when it's found you and logged you on go to the naps you'll see a blue dot, click on that and it should be the store you need, ggo to the survey page and fill it out, and that should do the job.

    If in doubt, use a bluff.

    "That's great, thanks, Dave wasn't it?"
    "I'm not Dave I'm Andy"
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    I've been known to ask the MOS (well, usually a colleague, if I'm feeling a little self-conscious that day) for their name, on the pretense that they look familiar e.g. a former classmate.
