Post office shops. Usually 5 minutes in the post office (if you time it right) and 5 minutes data entry using the app. The old MSC made it easier since we could self assign, pick up 4, and fit other shops in between on the way to the next one, but sometimes I get lucky and can still get several in the same area to build a small route. I send stuff to friends and relatives anyway so why not get reimbursed and paid for it?

I have and do, write really good narratives. However, I don't really enjoy it. I prefer the easy shops that don't pay much. But they are fast. So instead of doing mostly high end shops, I stack up easy fast ones. It's a personal preference. I prefer 4 $15 shops to 1 $60 shop. But as others have pointed out, I don't get dressed and leave the house, put miles on my car, for 1 $15 shop. I do it for anywhere from 4-10 of them. At the end of the day I'm in my jammies with a hot cup of coffee doing the fast reports and I've made good money.
Editing to say, that those cheap shops often get bonused so I get calls all the time offering me really good money for them.

And THAT sound just about perfect! I guess I need to revisit those phone shops that I've overlooked. . .
My interpretation of what Coffee Queen said is she will go out to do 4-10 $15 shops (not phone shops) and then come home to relax in her jammies and do the short reports. Try some of those, you might like them. Whenever I am in the midst of a long narrative shop, which is all too often, I too start to say "WHY?"

To me, this seems worth it, if I am going to be in the area and can add the valet to other shops!@ChrisCooper wrote:
@SunnyDays2, the $15-18 is the shopper's fee. There is always full reimbursement for one hour's parking + $2 tip. So, it is still decent money. I try to pair it up with a $10 Hagen Daz shop. Now we're talking....
Try Service Check, Ann Michaels for valet and general parking shops. They get bonused quickly.

Phone shops, in my opinion, are a different animal. They can have narratives as long and intense as a $50 shop.

Today I have the most incredibly easy $15 shop at a mall I absolutely hate. No way would the shop be enough, but since I also have a $10 gift certificate expiring tomorrow for free Godiva it will be a win/win. Too bad I don't have a coupon or a shop for Auntie Anne's, it would be a trifecta
