    I completed my first visit today with GfK and when beginning data entering they simply state "Left of Store," and "right of store." I am unable to find information from the notes to fill this in but I vaguely remember from training (a month ago) that I am to describe the shop? But would appreciate clarification. Anyone know for definite?

    They want the shop next to the store on the left and the one on the right of it.
  • Really? :s

    You're not pulling my leg right?

    Of course not. They want to make sure you visited the right shop. There can be multiple branches on the same street.
  • Ah sorry! Thanks for the clarification.

  • I usually take a photo of the shop I am visiting using my phone - after the visit in case I am spotted. If you frame it right you also get both shops next door. Useful tip for new shoppers. My kids think I am mad and always ask why I have loads of photos of shops on my phone!

    I've just seen one of the lunch/noodle places usually on MF advertised on mystery dining. Same brief, but no additional fee. Seemed odd to me!

    Most high st type assignments ask for a photo of the store don't they?

    I have a pubco mystery shop through MF and the allowance is £5 and I have to buy an alcoholic drink. Could I add some food to that or is the £5 just in case the drink was REALLY expensive.
