Here it is Easiest Way to Get Retail Therapy and Courier Service Achievements

[MrWillz]

If you check my profile you will see that I just got the above achievements. I started to get frustrated with the Lil Jacob's missions when a time limit started to come into play. But then I found that the easiest way to do these missions is to hale a cab. Lil Jacob says the package is in the car but that doesn't mean yo have to use the car. Simply jump into the car then get out and hale a cab. Take the cab to the destination and there you go the cab will always get yo there with plenty of time to spare. Doing this for all of Lil Jacobs mission will get you the above achievements in no time, the only thing you have to worry about is killing gang members. Hope that helps.

lol, thats awesome. I wish I had thought of that back when I did those. Some of those timed ones were a little frustrating.

I thought of that first , see my thread , jacob delieverys - the easy way .

I feel so robbed...

The beauty of an open world game.

I'm on about the third mission and it is a timed one. I just tried your cab trick and I am late every time I've tried. None of the cab tricks say anything about telling the cab driver to hurry, by pressing "x", nor do they say to skip at an extra charge, pressing "a".

The only way your cab trick works is to skip, "a", to get there in time. If you are going to help everyone out you can't leave out a key part. Hope that helps the rest of you that are reading these and saying they don't work.

LOL who rides a taxi and thinks it gets you there faster. Didn't really need to be said kinda obvious

[aCzarX]

Yes you hit a in the cab and you will get there in time. duh

[xXJAILOFFICERXx]

guess i should bow down to you......guess i'm stupid

[ITRUK]

Yep and you'll be knackered when you go there without a car because:
*Highlight to read* ..... .in the later drug runs when you drop the package of the cops are ready for you with 2 / 3 stars.

I used a helicopter as sometimes sods law there wasn't a cab to hail! I would land at the crossroads jump in the car drive all of the 20 meters to the chopper. I would get to the delivery point with lots of time to spare! Also helped on the 1st timed one because I could never find him as he was in the tunnel!

u don't need these to finish the game, you can come back and do them later...

and not to sound like a dick, but these weren't hard, you had plenty of time to drive to each drop off without a problem so I don't understand why so many of you struggled with it. You get better at driving the more you play, so I would suggest playing the game till the end and doing some of the race missions and then try these again and you should breeze through them.

Some people find the timed ones hard. It is nice to see an alternative way of doing them. That is what this site is about. I did not have any trouble with the timed ones but my brother is having all kinds of problems. I think the cab idea is great. Nice one!!
