I'm your personal shopper

Do you have a busy schedual at work?
Do you have problem to find time to go shopping?
Do you need to buy clothes, house goods or gifts but have no time to go around and see what options you have?

Here I am!

I have time, I have taste and I have professional knowledge in Design.

If you need to buy black pants but have no time to look around, I can do it for you.

If you need a mirror to put on your wall but have no time to look around, I can do it for you.

If you need to buy a special gift for your wife's birthday but have to much work. I can do it for you

Hey, maybe you are not sure of your choices...

Maybe you just hate shopping...

I am here for you!

I'm in Basel, I am waiting for you to let me help you,

Jo

If you don't have time to look around, would you actually need a mirror?

Oh, right. Thanks for the explanation. Gee, I didn't understand. But if I didn't have the time to look around, then I wouldn't have the time even to look in the mirror, therefore I wouldn't need one in the first place.

A joke explained is a joke ruined.

Oh hang on, I just saw the "sarcastic" icon... ah, so you were ALSO being sarcastic!!!! Oh the chortling!!!!!!!!

Right, back to business now.

You've been looking in shops in France or Germany, then? Best to limit your smalls search to shops in CH. Your shreddies decision will be made for you.

Re: I'm your personal shopper

It's a shame that people trash threads in this section... the guy/girl is trying to post genuine services, looking for work, and people turn it into a spam-fest, which in turn reflects badly on his job ad. The mods should be much stricter in these sections, and people should be more respectful of the fact that people who post here are looking for work and not mess around in their thread.

Sorry to be a bore, but...

Fair call. This was probably directed at least partially at me, so I'll offer a manful apology. Good luck with the personal shopping venture, Jo!

Re: I'm your personal shopper

I'm thinking of going for an afterwork beer tomorrow at about 6pm, central Zurich area. Can you checkout the bars for me and line up a couple of lovelies as I'll be in a bit of a hurry getting back to the wife and kids. Nothing too blond and nothing over 25 please

Anything to save time.

Cheers.

Re: I'm your personal shopper

Should I be surprised to see a bunch of smart ass hijacking a thread?

Nope, I'm not....

If you don't see the need for my help, it's probably because you are not in a position to afford me....

Cheers

Re: I'm your personal shopper

This kind of service is huge in the States, and most of the big department stores offer it. For busy people, it is a time saver without a doubt. I'd think you'd do well with it, especially considering the shopping hours here which limits the time someone can get out to browse and buy stuff.

...and in other European countries like Spain. Actually, having a personal shopper helps you with choosing the best clothes/style is getting very popular.

Nil, here's the website of the girl who does this here in NE.
If ever you feel like having a chat with her about how she goes about this, don't hesitate to drop her a line. She is a good person
