Update/Six Flags

I see they no longer call these shops Six Flags/Coco Cola...they are now listed as "Manufacter", with no mention of Six Flags, pay is same 12.50 per concession, still only one ticket, can't take anyone with you. Same ole, different name. Seems no ones buying into it. Mean Scheduler that WAS on the forum promoting and calling us out, is gone.

Oh you are wrong. I am biting all over this. I'm a coaster enthusiast with a six flags season pass, I visit the park once a week anyway....now I can make $75 everytime I do plus get a free ticket to bring friends. This was my dream shop, it's everything i thought amusement advantage would be.....you want to talk about a Joke. I joined amusement advantage so excited to have found them (you know being a coaster enthusiast!) only to find jobs that made zero sense to complete. The bulk of their shops they want you to see if the employee offers you the souvenir bottle and then if they do you HAVE to buy it and the guidelines specifically say there would be no reimbursement for whatever you ended up having to pay. All that for just a free ticket to whatever park it was, rarely was a fee offered. Like six concessions a park could have easily walked out paying more then the price of admission it made absolutely no sense I can not begin to believe there are people doing those shops for them.

EDIT: for the record amusement advantage is NOT the MSC of the job being talked about here that's why my comment is okay

I wish I knew who did these ...but.....it takes 2 hours just to park and get into the place..between the line to pay for parking, the line to buy tickets, the line to go through security, etc...I wish they could stream line that...and then maybe I will go looking for the MSC.

^If you go on the days everyone wants to go then yea, I never go on those days. I never understand why it seems everyone out there is drawn to go to theme parks on the same day. It's like oh its 4th of july lets go, its memorial day lets go, its a saturday during fright fest lets go. Me I avoid those days at all parks at all costs!!!! Even usually keep away on weekends unless I have a friend that wants to go.

I usually went on 'off days' middle of the week/non holiday....and always had that problem....you would think they would open a lot more gates to get people through quicker....and then the lines for the rides are at least an hour for the good rides....I am disabled and need to use a motorized wheelchair for any long day (normally I don't on typical 30 minute or less retail shops)....I get get a pass to wait outside the line, but it was always a hassle, especially trying to get the wheelchair up the exit ramp as people were leaving....

some of the issue with weekends and holidays is people are off from work...some people don't have good vacation days

One man's dream is another one's nightmare. You couldn't pay me enough to do one of these shops again, at least not for the piddly amount they're paying.

I saw one a few months back that said it would reimburse for the drink purchases. I would/could totally do this as my kids are getting to the point they could go through the park on their own. I could do the shopping while they do the rides. Win win. Just need to figure out who does these now LOL

Remember you only get one ticket for yourself, and no kids allowed while you do the concessions.

This one is a no kids? Dang. A couple others I do allow and encourage kids. My kids have free tickets from school. It would have been too perfect!

If the kids are old enough they can sit on a bench away from the concession area while you do the actual shop.

My daughter totally is, and would love to go. She is enamored with my "business trips" and if it was allowable for a kid to do them, she totally would LOL.

Hopefully you can find some video game age compliance or R rated movie shops that she could help you with in your area!

Spies in Disguise and Amusement Advantage have shops that require bringing a child.

Now scheduling travel shops for the day after Christmas through mid-January.

Disney store is shopped...i think you need to bring a young child.

We've done that one. I don't mind narratives, but holy man that shop sucked.

Yep, I instantly delete that shop. It's a whole lot of work for nothing.
