I am sorry, I have few of these lists can't remember which one has which, this one was just handy for me to post for this reply.
How did you accumulate that list? is it just form google? It must have been a lots of hard work but very rewarding. I have found some relatively obscure sites and it was a Eureka everytime.
I am still looking for who shops Health Spas and Amusements parks!!!

Don't apologise leila1 the list is a little out of date in places but nothing to worry about. In 2005 this list was ready available to anyone that searched google .Becles list when it was made, there were lots of companies to make a list from, even today if you make a detailed search of Mstery shopper or Mystery shopping companies you will find everything you need:o I don't see that you have done anything wrong ..if anything you have highlighted a thread that was dead;)

Sorry - I was having a go at the person behind the Floodle site, not you! I'm annoyed that my posts from this site have been "stolen" and published on their website. It wouldn't have cost anything to ask if I'd minded.

I built the list up over time from various sources - companies I have worked for, Google, a big worldwide list I found, magazine/internet articles, an ebook a friend bought and so on. As you can see from the date on the original post, that was the data I held in 2005, and I haven't updated it since due to personal reasons - too much time spent on the wedding and the baby etc instead

When people buy Mystery Shopping lists on Ebay, they get sent the Floodle list, a neighbour of mine showed it to me a few months ago after paying £1.99 for it. As there was only the one forum mentioned on it, I assumed it originated from a member of that forum. Maybe not, after reading the posts on here.

Optimum Contact used to do these.
With the SPA's you had to be at least 55.
The parks used to be caravans, but you had to pay out part of the costs, so not an earner.
Also even though you got a 4 or 5 day break, you could probably get it as cheap if you paid direct as the MS scenario had you paying the full whack!

The big problem with trying to nail down "Who does what" is that clients and companies change regularly so for example Optimum may not do the Health Spa's now nor the caravans.

One has to keep a close ear to the ground and sign up to the MS forum I mentioned to see if there are any new contracts.
I have amassed a list as long as the one noted here from doing just that (+ I have a few not on there...)

Also it is wise to be a good MSer with the companies as quite often new jobs are not advertised but given to dependable shoppers.

Thanks Dazzie, every day I learn something new. Do you see Becles you could have made yourself a fortune if you got yourself a copy right!
I know some on the list have either changed hands or don't exist anymore.
