Mystery Dining - Tax

I've just started mystery dining and I'm really confused about if I have to declare this and register as self-employed? I have looked through the guide posted above but it didn't make it clear to me how it works.

All the dines I've done so far I have been reimbursed a certain amount. E.g A dine where I must order 2 mains and 2 drinks. The maximum reimbursement is £30 and I have spent £34. Do I declare the £30 even though its a reimbursement? Or do I only have to declare dines when I receive a fee to do them?

Many thanks.
