Maximising income - Mystery Shopping? Surveys? (Part Three)

hello


Has anyone else been sent an email about availability audits with supermarkets? You have to go in and check and count stuff and talk to the manager. They're paying £12:eek:

Am I greedy/unrealistic to think this is ridiculously low? I wouldn't dream of doing that job for that!!!

No you're not the only person here! So does that mean you think i'm a sad loser?

I've just been ultra money saving and switched my car insurance half way through my policy and have saved £200! plus I got £60 cashback through quidco. I've just turned 25 so think that's made a big difference.

i'm loving quidco at the moment actually - got £300 due to me now! Roll on that payday at the end of July!!

Oh, and I'm MSing at a casino tomorrow so I'm hoping for a win there! I've done 2 before and always managed to come out with some winnings so I'm hoping for a repeat. It's quite nice to be gambling someone else's money cos I won't risk my own!!

Yeah that's ok! I am a bit sad really! Sat up onmy own on a Friday night while H2B is out at work and sitting here thinking of ways to save money / make money!!

The casinos are fun. I did the 2 last month, only won about £20 from each visit but had a nice night out with my Dad each time and the restaurants were both really nice so it was well worth it just for the night out, then the wins were a good bonus!

I've not seen any bingo jobs - is that with GfK? I've only been registered with them since the beginning of this month as they haven't been recruiting in my area.

Sinderella and SJ I have done 5 bingo jobs this week and won the square root of sod all. Got another 3 Sund, Mon & Tues so maybe I will get lucky. Are your bingo visits the Gfk ones.?

I've only done one bingo job but I won £120!

Hollypear,
You must do a hell of a lot of travelling or has Glasgow just got lots of bingo halls?

Although I haven't done one of these jobs before (but I know the one you mean), I would say that the fee sounds fine. Remember it's auditing and not MSing, so the talking to the manager is just part of the job, not something out of the ordinary.

The company you're talking about is by far the best company I've worked for. They treat their MSers with respect and the director (?) there is the nicest woman around and I'm sure I'd be agreed with by others on that!

Also, the economies of scale idea comes in here, too. I find that I do a number of jobs for them in quick succession and earn a lot for doing them - when you look at the hourly rate after doing the jobs, it's usually in excess of £10-15/hour.

While I'm talking about them, can I request that if anyone wants to know the company I'm on about, could they PM me (or sinderella) and ask? Only reason I say that is I think it's worth protecting the privacy of this company as they're so good and pay well - I would hate to damage that for them and their loyal workers (me!)!
