    Most items posted are placed in a local post box or the one outside of the post box. If asked to post a letter/jiffy bag/ or anything which will fit into a postbox, at the post office, then I post in the postbox outside the post office. Otherwise I post at any local postbox.

    I only post inside the post office if item is too big to go in post box.

    Good luck

    Thank you :)

    Just go in and hand it over the counter. That would not look out of place because they don't have a PB anyway. :)

    Are we meant to record the arrival of the posting scheldue itself for the following week? I haven't been, instead only recording anything with a SMART in it. Just wanted to make sure :)

    as part of the standard panel only record mail sent to you by other panelists...you do not need to register the packs of mail sent to you that you then post on...


    on odd occaisions you will receive things without a smart from others so make sure those items are recorded too.


    Sometimes you may be invited to take part in extra monitoring of delivered mail as part of the panel and your large packs can be counted in that measurement....but usually you are invited seperatley to the two week monitoring that records correctly delivered mail...you will be sent email invitations periodically to take part in this if you choose to accept the dates offered.

    Also, if you receive magazines or similar, you will need to record these which may or may not have smarts.

    We now have a sender on the panel who thinks it's appropriate to post a cube without the use of any tape whatsoever :mad:

    Why would someone not use sellotape, it's common sense to tape up the cube. I'm surprised it even arrived in one piece!

    Exactly, I couldn't believe it :mad:


    The franking machine labels gives the company name away and they're a local company so if this idiocy leads to me losing my place on the panel there will be revenge involving a fully taped up box containing something unspeakable! :rotfl:


    Google tells me they're a 'creative agency' but how creative do you need to be to successfully construct a ruddy box?! :rotfl:
