Where Are You Shopping Today?

My personal beloved 99c store. Thousands of times better than any other under $1 store. They think it was the pile of boxes behind the store that caught fire but the investigation is still only a few days old. Burned completely to the ground. The "next door" site is going bonkers with assumptions...it was the homeless, it was arson, it was for the insurance money, it was this or that. Passed the place last night in the dark. No building at all, just a 8 foot or so high pile of totally black and burned pieces of the entire store covering the entire store area and parking lot. I will go back today and take a pic.

Shop today, a parking lot job while i go and get my triple chocolate Sunday reward for spending the Sprinkles money I got reimbursed for .

Today was 4 cell phone shops and a 5Guys. The cell shops were a route that worked out nicely. The burger shop was an outlier.

Tomorrow is a pizza shop.

One more shop this week. Several merch next week, and more merch later in August.

Two garages, a casual lunch and then checking in for an overnight hotel shop.

One lone, distant shop on the other side of the beloved wide open spaces which were #@#%^& hot. This should have been completed earlier, but vehicle trouble prevented that efficiency.

JITB and believe me the fries were fabulous, only doing restaurants this week thru Monday......

I am finishing up a hotel shop that started out being a big disappointment and is becoming a revelation. That is because I expected something other than what it is. It is, to my mind, a truly exceptional long-stay hotel in an area that serves a huge military base and has a nearby VA hospital. Top marks for things that the survey never asks about: tons of ADA compliant parking; serious cookware in the kitchen, a full size, full power microwave; excellent, 24 hour, mini-store with a wide variety of food; a "lending locker" where guests can borrow anything from a blender or a board game to or the equipment to set up an outdoor game of corn hole; a serious outdoor picnic space with two large grills; many accessible rooms with special accommodations for service animals; a large, immaculate laundry area and work-out area. The list goes on. And, it is very, very quiet, clean, and well maintained. It does not provide breakfast. But, there is a nice white board in the lobby with lists of guest-endorsed, nearby places for: breakfast, dinner, happy hour, etc.

Guidelines for the shop also fail to "get" what this is. "Shopper is required to eat breakfast in the hotel and to take the following pictures of the food and breakfast area...." I hope that the client will have the MSC do a survey form that reflects what this place really is, because the result would allow its good design and execution of its "mission" to shine through. BTW, the microwave eggs, sausage, potatoes and cheese bowl was superior to most "frre" breakfast scrambled eggs. Why was I not surprised?

eom shop. With bonus, the pay is three times more than it originally was. It is conveniently located between errands. Such a deal!

Doing a candy shop today so I'll get my fix of gummy bears. Only bad part is that it's on the boardwalk, which I generally avoid at all costs.

I have a We Go Look shop for tomorrow and a nearby Panda shop.

I did my first We Go Look today. It went well. I look forward to doing some more. After that, I had a Panda Express and a gas station.

Tomorrow is Five Guys with a milkshake: Peanut Butter and Bacon!

@HonnyBrown Is We Go Look one of those MS/gig apps? Glad it worked out for ya!

Shopping the South Jersey Shore
A bank shop with a $100 bonus plus a garage shop where I never have to be outside in the 95F and rotten air quality air. Tomorrow, a hotel valet video (30 seconds outside) and a garage attached to a store where I have a bunch of coupons to "spend." Zero time outside.

Snagging a few coupon freebies at Wally world, and an audit, three Krogers, and a miniature golf course, then to drop off a form for the library sweepstakes, and pick up a few things from a friend to resell.
Did a bonused third-party vendor kiosk shop at a warehouse club. The kiosk was unoccupied, and requirements said I had to wait 15 minutes to see if they showed up. I was able to make a serious dent in my daily steps and get paid for doing so.

eye, peanut butter and bacon anything is AWESOME!

We Go Look: This shop was going to a house that was almost finished construction and taking pictures to note the status.

Jenny, I have had two this week, and I don't eat (drink?) milkshakes. They are in the fries category. I'm so glad I looked at the CPI beforehand.
