Sorry you thought I was being snarky because, believe me, I was not. I was asking if you opened the report to input your data. If you had done that before you asked the question you might have looked at it differently.

I apologize. I misunderstood what you were saying - I read it to mean I'd missed something. I desperately wanted to do everything right, so I read every communication twelve times.

I have to agree that sometimes their instructions are not always clear. But I truly love doing their shops. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions about this project. You can even call me if you would like. PM me and I will send you my phone number. BUT just go to the PO once after you get your assignment to do so. So, for instance, if you go on Wednesday then do your report for that day. Anything that shows up after you've checked will go on the following month's report. You will not always have any mail to report which means to me an easy, peasy shop.

Thank you. I think I have it figured out now. I was just paranoid about making a mistake. I was worried there'd be no pay if there was nothing to mail. I'm surprised they don't request a pic or geo code. I'm going to get a geo code every time the box is empty, just for good measure.

Now that I believe I have the hang of how to report, invoice, etc - I wish I'd have been assigned more than two!!

Thanks again.

I'm now on my second set of PO Boxes. I was instructed to close my first two, and now have two more and am starting over.

You will probably not have anything to send in the first time you check it, and possibly not even the second. Don't worry; you'll still get paid.

Be careful when obtaining your boxes: remember, only one per zip code, AND one per post office physical location. So those who have more than one zip code in the same post office, will have to find another location in that zip code or give one up.

Here's a weird thing that happened to me. You know those coupons that are printed at the register at the grocery store - the ones based upon your purchases? Last week, I received coupons for baby formula. I'm 57 years old and have no history of purchasing baby products from my grocer. The only link I can imagine, is that this last round of assignments, we were required to input our phone number. I used my cell number, and that is the same phone number I use for my grocery store's rewards program. Coincidence?

There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.

I did these a few years ago and we were allowed to keep the formula samples that we were sent and at times I was asked to use a coupon and buy some formula. My daughter works in pediatrics at a local hospital so I just gave them to her and she passed them on to one of the poorer Moms.

I had my first box check today. I was so disappointed to only find a non-related piece of junk mail. Oh well maybe next month. lol
