I always say 'quite near the station'...

Do all towns have a station. Knowing my luck it wouldn't have one. Luckily, when I hesitated, the salesman said "Are you in Sheffield?". So I just said "Yes". :rotfl:

You know you've been mystery shopping too much when the salesperson asks where abouts you live and you can't remember which town yo. Strare currently in. :rotfl:

The ones that get me are the PIP travel agent's where you have to give the address they quote in the brief. Trying to remember a strange postcode and address in a strange town can be a challenge....

Or even overtly... "I've only just moved there and haven't memorised the postcode yet... let me double check it."

They generally offer around 5x the fee for the ones left to clear at the end of the month. Not too bad for that premium.

There are two "Insights", for some reason:
Insight Market Research
Insight Retail Consulting

Sometimes a little hard for me to keep track of which is which. :-D

I had no idea there were two Insights :doh:

Quick word to the wise. There's some cheap supermarket audits on mf worth what looks like a reasonable fee. Unless you're practiced at what is required, it will probably take quite a long time. If you are skilled at checking what needs checking, you'll !!!! it.

I applied for TNS emails and phone assignments. I understand that we cannot book two phone or two email assignments for the same company and we are only allowed 3 emails and 3 phone calls. I cannot see anywhere a company's name before applying. I picked up twice email assignment for the same company then I had to cancel it. Am I missing something?

I would pick the cheap supermarket visits when I am out and about in the area anyway. It takes few minutes to do the job and the reports are very easy (no overall description). I won't go out of my way to go somewhere else to complete those visits and the tiny combination of the small fee and reimbursement adds up to my daily income.
