Depends. If I and my merch supplies arrive at my place early enough, I can complete the last of a series of merches. If not, I will do that gig on Monday. I have a few gigs for the weekend and one pending application for a gig that can replace two shifts at another job. It would be wonderful to get that assignment.

The "Look" shops stands for an app called We Go Look....usually you have to photograph cars or real estate. HTH

I'd gone back in time today in 2006 where MS was a hush hush industry and I was able to do close to home McDonald shops for $50 each plus reimbursement while gas price was $1 something. In reality today, fast food shops pay $0-$4 while gas price is $4 something and these shops get picked up quickly.

When I first did MS in the early 2000s, the pay of the shops I did and found were as low as they are today, like $15 for a LOT of work in fast fashion shops. It was no more than a few dollars an hour (and often much less) after everything was taken into consideration. I can't believe the $50 plus gas reimbursement for your McDonalds shops. Maybe I didn't do them long enough, search hard enough, or sign up for enough, or maybe they were just lower paid in my area? Were better shops offered to the dependable, longtime shoppers?

I like these. They typically pay in two weeks. There is no report to write since the photos are uploaded real time. They have various types of assignments.
