Where are you shopping today?

I did Chipotle training today. Met some nice local shoppers while I was there.

Hubby and I went to a wings place for dinner thanks to a self-assign job I picked up yesterday. Tomorrow I am going to a mall to purchase and then return a pair of shoes. While I am waiting 30 minutes to make the return, I will be cell phone shopping. When I'm done at the mall, I will drive to a nursery to inquire about perennials and purchase a nice plant or some such thing to decorate my table for company on Saturday night.
Considering I work full time, I have over scheduled myself for today. I will be shopping Five Guys, the Disney store, liquor store, and checking out a Walmart demo. Long, but profitable day!
After work, I only worked 5 hours today, I had a call in wings shop. I like doing one a month, although this month I'll be doing a dine in shop. Tomorrow, it's trailer check day.
To correct an error in previous work, I did a small road trip to a recently shopped location. I added additional shops to pay for this unplanned trip.

Mind you, I am tired and ready to hibernate!

But I finished everything, including assorted shop tasks that popped up throughout the day.

(There are no shops until Monday. I can begin to clean house and prepare my little den for proper winter living. There must be books, music, caffeine, perfume, and a nail kit for days when it is too blustery to go to the salon.)

Yesterday - Arlington and Kennedale - one fast casual, four Valeros, four sHells.

Mary Davis Nowell. Based close to Fort Worth. Shopping Interstate 20 east and west, Interstate 35 north and south.
Today I did a cell phone shop and then a wings restaurant for lunch. Tomorrow it's a women's clothing store and an apartment.
I am going to be buying money order four times and pretending to be purchasing cell phones in different parts of the city.
I may take a casual dining shop as well, if I have time. Otherwise I will reschedule.
Yesterday I dropped off dry cleaning and had lunch at the faux mex near it. Today I pick up the dry cleaning, visit the bank, the convenience store next to it, and a nearby post office. Then a non-shop hardware right next to the po, and a non-shop stop on the way home. Love it when a plan comes together!
Today I am doing 3 audits, 6 grocery department shops, 2 restaurants, 1 car dealership and an apartment shop.

Do not read so much, look about you and think of what you see there.

Today I visited a Y to inquire about membership.
Wingstop, Best Buy, and Joe Muggs, I try to stick to three or less on weekdays. Edited to add: I guess I am a glutton for punishment. I added one more-Rack Room. It had a bonus and is right by my office.

Did a new mc donalds breakfast audit. Even the regional gm was unaware of the program and denied inside pics. Just another thing that is hurting mc donalds lack of communication

Shopping Western NY, Northeast and Central PA, and parts of Ohio and West Virginia. Have car will travel anywhere if the monies right.
Just a cellphone shop tomorrow and a Western Union shop. smiling smiley 2 more cell phone shops the next day. Pretty happy with October.
Setting out on a 2 day route that includes 3 video shops with big bonuses: 2 apartments and 1 upscale retail. Plenty of time to enjoy the fall colors and seashores along the route. Plus, a little outlet shopping for myself! Early Christmas shopping, I think.

Based in MD, near DC
Shopping from the Carolinas to New York
Have video cam; will travel

Poor customer service? Don't get mad; get video.
I messed up a shop yesterday and went to the wrong location. I am redoing that shop today after work, and a bank shop at lunchtime. The bank is across the street from work.

I am doing short road trips every day this week. I will net some money. I will earn enough money to fund a portion of my hibernation. More important, I will see my region in Autumn and identify potential future shopping experiences.

When's your follow up class? I learned something interesting last week doing this shop: I've somehow gotten old. Let's just say Zumba was not the best choice for me....
Today is a gas station, a vehicle service shop and then a retail clothing store.

Shopper in California's Bay Area
I postponed 2 shops that I intended to do yesterday (both due today) because I had slept poorly, had to drive my kid back to college in the morning, and was exhausted when I got home. So today I'm cramming in two lunches (a sandwich shop and a pub), a high end furniture store, and a sporting goods store. I don't like doing 4 in a day, especially since two of them are new assignments to me. But that 2 1/2 hour nap yesterday afternoon was well worth it.

Yesterday, I did a convenience store gas station shop and an in-home Medicare shop.

Today I'm doing an oil change shop and a cell phone shop.

I will be buying a wash cloth and returning it 5 minutes later at 5 different locations this coming week. Also have 3 more USPS, A car wash, and a fast food dinner shop. Possibly 2 bank shops and a bunch more I will schedule. Oh yeah and a Yankee Candle shop. I need to add some Gas stations to pay my gas.

Just curious, how many shops did you do and how many of the product did you have to buy? I did four of the shops today and had to buy 13 total (8/1/3/1). I have five more tomorrow.

Funny. I did my last five today and have a grand total of 32 boxes, mostly the bbq.
Today I did two phone shops, a highly bonused Lowe's, a surplus store and 8 grocery stores (out of my 11 grocery stores total the last two days, I only ended up with 9 boxes of mashed potatoes. I only found the Italian Herb in my area.).
