Where Are You Shopping Today?

Merch gig tomorrow., another on an unknown date (whenever replacement supplies arrive), a bunch on Monday, and then a few several weeks later. That;s it for me for awhile! This simplifies my world: work, merch, sleep. Work, merch, sleep. Work, merch, sleep.... grinning smiley

Today was the most stressful shopping day. It rained so hard that roads were flooded and it ended up taking me over 4 hours to go only a few miles to where I had to two shops. I turned around after trying to take a short cut off the crawling highway but encountered many stalled cars and tow trucks and a flooded road that my low sports car would not like driving through. Back on the highway where I literally crawled for 2 hours to go 2 miles. Stressed out, but after driving that far I was not about to sit in all the traffic to go home without finishing the shops...so I bit the bullet and did them both.

Beer audit..easy, Best Buy TV, BOB's Furniture Store and Life Storage...phewie, only one report to go, but I had to vent a bit..need wine!!

Between work, school and vacation, I did one shop in September. I'm stacking up the shops for October. My favorite ACL scheduler has been changed. I hate starting from scratch with them.

Should be a nice weekend. They paid for both of the airfares too.
I did one burger shop for September. I'm putting together my shops for October. ACL has a new scheduler for my area. I have to train her on my bonuses.

Honny,
We share the new MD scheduler. We trained Jess, we can do this !

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.
Seems like my bread and butter is 3 shops on the days I can shop..dissappointed not able to snag my typical car wash shop..was able to get the NFCU deposit shop super easy..bit of a drive though..thought I was out of luck with just one shop earlier this week but got an email for office max shop..feel a bit bad for the employees though...in my opinion it isnt modeled toward bending over backwards to wait on customers browsing the store..then got really lucky this morning..able to snag a really great bonus for an applebees shop..for those who shop bj's..is their curbside shops comparable to applebees?

Shopping Idaho and Oregon/Idaho border region.
Jess was awesome! She would contact me in the beginning of the month to do two shops with a bonus. She quit asking me to do the pizza shops.

This new one? No fee, and a pizza shop. NO THANKS!

I did Pincher's in Marco Island, FL on Monday. Today its Shula Burger at Ft. Lauderdale airport. On my way back to California.
Did my 4 Walgreens locations for RQA for the re-stickering project. That had to be the most enjoyable, non-pressured, well-paying assignment I've done in a long time! Wish now that I had picked more than 4 locations!!
I have not shop in about a month. I have be realy sick infact I was in the hosptail from Thursday until yesterday. I had a horrable kidney infecttion. I will prably begin slowly again next week.
Oh Alieda, I so sorry! I hope you get better soon.

After texting the new ACL scheduler back and forth, I have three bonused gas station/convenience store shops for this month.

Thank You Honey I am feel much better. I have an appointment with my docotor on MOnday .
I had a Popeye's revealed shop scheduled for today. I ate very light both today and yesterday so I could pig out for dinner. By the time I got there, I'm drooling for their chicken. They were out of the one item I was allowed to order, and I couldn't do a replacement.

Sorry you missed out on your yummy meal!

Do you just leave and report to scheduler when this happens?
I emailed the scheduler when I got in my car, and again when I got home. Crickets.

LOL. We got home Wed night. I took it while I was in FL. The scheduler said Fri was the last day to get it done, so please do it. I said the only way I wouldn't was if something happened with my flight. Its a strange meal period. 3-5pm.
