Are CiCi's Pizza and Golden Corral shopped?

I have not shopped either in years. Would love to shop them again!

More About Pizza Store Mystery Shopping

I haven't done CiCi's but I can swear I saw them on a job board.

GC is sometimes audited.

I used to shop GC about 5 years ago. They discontinued the shopper program as far as I know. I don't know about CiCis, but given how inexpensive their food is, I don't know if they could afford to have a shopper program in place and still turn a profit.

Golden Corral is one of the top 3 restaurants I can think of that could desperately use a mystery shopping program, and not just because I want free food.

GC isn't a fancy place and it gets out of control at times but I think they usually do a good job. At least to the locations I go to. I look at the clientele and they are the ones usually making a mess there. Overall I think GC does a great job. I'd still like to shop them.

I did a GC shop a few years ago also. I love GC. Wish they would bring it back.

D&B was shopped last year.

I frequently see GC have exit interview shops, and I have only ever once done a MS for their food - and that was years ago.

I haven't seen CiCi's, but have seen a very similar place called Stevi B's. Equally cheap, and they are shopped, so I don't think that's a reason for CiCi's not to be.

As much as I spend there with my niece I'd love to be able to MS it. Would save me quite a bit of money. I am signed up with a zillion companies but have never seen D&B offered. Guess I need to sign up with more

I believe I've seen D&B on Presto's list as a restaurant shop. But when you pull it up it says bar. Can't think of the MSC now.

I've done about 20 Golden Corral shops. The last time was in 2013.

I did a few GC shops when I lived in SC a couple years ago but haven't really seen any since. Cici's was shopped when I first started MSing in 2013 by a MSC that has since gone out of business, but I haven't come across them with anyone else since.

Happily shopping the Pacific Northwest. Shopping since 2013

I received an email offering a bonus for D&B this morning. It is, in fact, a bar shop.
