What should I buy at the cell phone store?

I recently signed up for a new MSC that is doing cell phone store shops. This assignment isn't for a cell phone sales pitch, but rather for accessories and checking display and stock (like a covert audit). The catch is that I have to have a receipt for a purchase to prove I was there. The fee is only $24.05 (however they arrive at that number), but stuff is so expensive at these places, just a packet of screen protectors is going to eat up half of that. Any suggestions on what to buy, or do I have to start selling the stuff on eBay? The only other idea I have come up with is that I can also return an item and get a return receipt. I guess I could go to one store and buy something and then go to another store and return it. Unfortunately, there is only one store close and a couple in nearby towns. I also wouldn't want them to think I was running some sort of racket by purchasing something in one store and then returning it later that day to another store 15 miles away.

Could I have a receipt please?

Why not just wait until your report is submitted and accepted and then return the item where you got it from?

Check the various clearance bins..you can probably find something and unless your guidelines say otherwise, you can just return whatever you buy.

Gosh I wish I could find that shop. I need a few accessories and am avoiding purchasing them because I plan to upgrade soon.

Check with the scheduler about returning what you purchase. Some shops will be invalidated if the purchase is returned. With the way everything is networked now, they would be able to track the return even if done at a different location.

You might want to PM Traveliz and see what she needs and what price she's willing to pay. If you can find what she needs, you've got a market for it. Also, if you know which MSC shops the Post Office, you can add some weight to the package and ship it for free...or almost free, depending on how far away from Liz you are.
