It's funny - you never know who will call once your name is out there for merchandising. I had a project pulling seed packets from a farmers coop. It took me 9 hours. Luckily they didn't want them returned as it would have taken 2 days packing up the $14,659 worth of seeds I pulled sorted and counted.

Call ahead and find the scope of the project. I thought it would be a 2 hr job and came with a few ziplock bags. The store owner laughed at me and I left with 6 boxes and 8 grocery bags full, filling my SUV to the brim.

I would see who the merchandising company is that is doing the recall work. Google them, check on their reputation and see if they are valid. Unfortunately since the client may have been named you may not be able to seek help from us. Then again you could open a new topic asking if anyone is familiar with said company.

Did you do the coffee job? I've been emailed two or three times about this. You need to buy 50 kinds of coffee or something, then mail them in, then you get reimbursed plus $50. Something like that. So you do risk losing a lot of money. I wondered if they maybe get people to stock their office with coffee for free. Every time they've emailed me the emails have been very poorly done. The most recent one was saying they need it done in the "city of Ontario". I'm in the province of Ontario. And the email said $50 pay but the site said $45. Really badly done. I'd stay away.

Since it is not a mystery shop I don't see a problem with naming the company. It seems suspicious to me. Why not just send in photographs?
