    I'm due to do an RE burger eat-in this PM, and although it doesn't state a specific amount of time to spend in-store, would it be too cheeky if I wolf it down and was in & out within 10 mins?

    Not at all Johnny. I did an RE burger eat in early this week. I was starving an wolfed it down in 6 minutes and as it was so sunny a day I wanted out quick. I just added on a little time to the time I was there. Caution remember you are supposed to visit the loo before you order so include that in the time.

    After all they are no called fast food restaurants for nothing.:rotfl:

  • I am due to do my first mystery shopping assignment in a few days time, and am very excited!

    However, I'm on incapacity benefit, and would be grateful for advice on how I should declare anything I make.

    Thanks.

    Remember there is cctv in all these outlets. I had a query with timings and was told they playback all ms visits. luckily I had spent 25 mins instore. My timings were correct so it worked to my advantage.:beer:

    this annoys me a bit because for the small fee we should have a bit more freedom and flexabilty

    The 28th is a Wednesday ;)

    Ah! but have you seen the details? Firstly, you must be contactable by phone because they don't trust you to actually carry out the assignment after you've accepted it and then you have to have the report back in ASAP to qualify for a bonus fee. :rolleyes:

    Thanks but do you know what always puzzled me. If you do a MS in say a fast food place and there are 6 of you in the queue. You mostly all served at similar times, eat at the same speed and leave at similar times. When they play back the tape how do they know which one is the MS'er. After all this company only have a tiny ID pic of me and most companies don't have a pic at all so don't know what I look like.

    The time and cashier/server on the receipt maybe, if your receipt was printed at 15.59 by server John smith, they could look back and identify you....possibly.
