    Wow you lot are lucky I'm almost a month in, level 2 & on £16.50 as there are barely any paying tasks in my area.
    I've got 5 available to me (1 more showing but its a level 5) but 3 of those I would have to go a fair way out of my way to complete, 1 freebie that I'll do when I get home & the red bull one which I tried to do yesterday but apparently standing with my back against the other side of the aisle isn't far enough & I won't be back at that store very soon to try again
    - Mortgage: 1st one down, 2nd also busted
    - Student Loan gone

    Out of interest, how long did it take you to get to £40? I'm on day 8 and at £27 but really want to ramp up what i'm doing because I want a new TV :)

    Not long at all, maybe a couple days. But a large bulk of that was a £15 campaign check. I haven't been roaming as much due to giving birth about two weeks ago so I have been a little slower completing tasks. Previously I'd earned about £24 and that didn't take long either :)

    I have £87 worth of Ice Cream In Store checks that could be done but for some ridiculous reason, you need to be 25 or over so I can't complete it :mad::mad::mad:

    I have £36 worth of Ice Cream checks though.

    What location are you in? And as for the task that they rejected you for, did you not have the whole aisle in enough? Next time, try taking a shot of it from an angle.

    When you say you have £87 worth could you actually do that many? Or are those jobs 1 per person? I can see a ton of locations for the banana job for example but I believe you can only complete one?

  • They mean £87 worth

    The banana check can only be done once

    In the ice cream tasks you can select and do as many as you want

    I'm not sure about this Ice Cream in store one, I think that if you want to do it multiple times then you have to purchase loads of ice cream? Then you have to do a further task (which i'm guessing is filming yourself reviewing it somewhat) and they will refund your purchase. That's what it sounded like to me anyways!

    I think you could only complete that task once anyway..
  • Being ridiculously thick, what's the url? I've googled it and still get nowhere.

    I don't know as I'm not considered old enough to complete it anyway :mad:

    There was an ice cream video one though that required a purchase.

    The ice cream in store is related to it, but I think they just ask questions. Looks like you can complete it as many times as you like.

    You can only complete the ice cream in store once and then it unlocks the ice cream at home. So your potential loss there is only £8.50......not the £80+ you thought!

    Every cloud and all that..
