Has anyone joined this site? I'm wondering what help they give you and if it's worth it to join since it costs $.

JoanG has apparently joined. I originally signed up. When they sent me the information that I could pay my 'membership' with a special discount that would get it to 'only' $28 and change for the year (a 20% discount or some such) and earn $5 for every friend I referred who signed up and joined and used me as a referral, I figured pyramid scheme to sell memberships and oh, by the way, we will send you job leads. Gary Cohn, who is a somewhat hidden associate of this outfit was a former executive of Datatron which went defunct this year leaving shoppers in the hole about $22,000. Sure, Gary was gone by the time the unpaid jobs were hired out for, but I far from doubt that his hands were clean.
I am steering well clear of this outfit.

Lynne- Yes, I am registered with Premier. Here's the link to a thread where I have responded to another shopper's inquiry about them. [www.mysteryshopforum.com]
Flash- Your statement that Gary Cohn is a "somewhat hidden associate" of Premier couldn't be farther from the truth. He is upfront and open about his position as president of Premier Shoppers. All of his emails are signed:
Gary Cohn
President
888-777-1667
In addition, he has openly posted responses to shopper's questions on another forum [www.msfreedom.org], and he invites and welcomes phone calls or emails from shoppers who have questions or concerns about Premier.
One final thought...Many highly regarded MSPs are affiliated with Premier Shoppers. I greatly doubt that they would risk their reputations by endorsing a company without thoroughly checking them out first.

It is still my preference not to pay someone to let me work for them. They are supposed to pay Me, not the other way around.

I consider a membership in Premier Shoppers to be an investment-not a payment to someone to let me work for them. Sure, some of the shops can be accessed for free on the individual MSP's job boards, but others are posted exclusively on Premier.
Besides the job posts, the area of their site I have accessed most often is the huge section with retail/service sector coupon codes and discounts. I'm going to be saving a lot this Christmas with that alone-not only in $$$ but in my valuable time.
