Chili's

I did one just because I happen to be at a shop close by. Report was really easy, took me less than 10 mins. Only 3 really easy pictures also. I did a lunch one so maybe it was easier than a dinner, but I still only used half the reimbursement amount.
No narratives?

Another restaurant shop I have an issue with is the O'Charley's. Is anyone else up for a virtual gift card for the same restaurant with NO actual reimbursement? This doesn't pay the bills either.

There is a restaurant on the east coast that recently joined this MSC with two numbers that does the same. Virtual GC to the same merchant for personal use next time. Not an actual reimbursement.
all eateries from that company basically for food reimbursements only.

Shopping Eastern Pennsylvania since 2009
Where are there 5 minute reports for $5.00 or more. It is the 5 minute report that is attractive.
I did one last night. Stood up to take the entree picture at the end of the table. Pretending to be taking a pix of my friend, The one at the end of the meal, I took from the corner of the booth showing what was left on the table. ORdering the 2 for $22 and one drink. with the tip it was $31.50 The server did not chatrge for the coffee and the cup was clearly shown in the picture,
I like this MSC, but almost always the editor has a question or two for my to respond to.
I struggled with the overhead pictured. The end of the meal is not an overhead shot though its from the end.
Seems difficult to impossible to stand and take the overhead shot if your are in a booth. I guess I can ask to be seated at a table. I don’t know what kind of seating is at Chili’s.
They have booths and tables but their lights hang too low to get the shot they want. I have done them in two pictures before.

You can't mention the name of the company. You need to edit this and pull the name out or pull the post smiling smiley
Ugh. I accepted one of these site unseen from a scheduler - she did put a hard sell on it. But her supervisor hasn't released the shops yet so I can't see what's involved yet. I really hate the no shop fees and this MSP has always demanded a lot of repetition in the reports. I guess I'll do the shop unless the requirements are as bad as I'm reading.
I just got the email for one in my area, I think the pay is slightly to low. $25 for lunch even with 2 for $22 I am still paying to report on my food. I will wait till Lunch goes to $35ish and Dinner $45ish.
IMO the over head shot of the table before you eat will be the hardest. Now if they wanted a picture (may be two to three) of each item that you order (like Applebee's) then it would not be hard.

But others have done this with no problems.
Did this shop on Sunday. I thought it was the easiest report this MSC has ever had. If I accept a lunch shop again, I'm eating alone though. My husband and I went over the $25 by $8. I can't afford to pay for my meals! smiling smiley
If I take my wife and we spend $20 will I get the $20 or will I get the whole $25 (which I belive what the max is).

I think some one said they have a 2 for 20

You will be reimbursed for what you spend, up to $25

If you spend $20, you get $20. But if you get the 2 for $20, there will also be tax and then an 18% tip, so you should come close to the $25. Somebody mentioned that the 2 for 20 has gone up to 2 for 22? There's also a 3 for 10 special: beverage, appetizer, and entree for $10. With tax and tip, that would put a shopper close to $25.

Thanks.. I will check out the menu
Chili’s was my first serving job. Full hands in and full hands out was a major push for us. I’m sure these photos are to monitor prebussing and perhaps even how the items are plated and presented.

Doing what I can to enhance the life of my family! I LOVE what I do smiling smiley
I just checked the web site and I didn't see the 3 for 10. Unless our Chilli's doesnot have that option.

On Chili's menu, click Specials, the last item at the bottom right. When you click Specials, the 3 for $10 is listed right below the dinner for two.
