Most casinos have a beginner's night in the poker room. Just ask the manager.

Sorry to hear that. I never have a problem getting a beginner's game on their off nights.

That's bizarre, I know there are some in NV for sure. Maybe check the next casino for grins and chuckles to see if they have a beginner table. It probably isn't something they advertise because bad players make the casino more money haha.
If there is an option, play roulette. Bet consistently one color over the other. A beginner will lose their money less quickly at roulette than poker.@Irene_L.A. wrote:

My favorite shops are apartments and car dealerships.
The one I don't ever want to do again is the big box store where you have to walk around a store for a long period with a very large item waiting for someone to ask if you need a cart. You also have to ask an employee about an item and be walked to that area. Meanwhile, you are to remember every single employee you saw, their names, their descriptions, what department they were in, etc. And, don't forget to interact with the cashier and check the bathroom. They couldn't pay me enough to do this shop again.

Funny, I've done a few of those and they were very easy. Rubbermaid totes are big and light and very easy to carry for 10 minutes. The stores near me have so few employees inside it's not very hard to note the ones you saw.

It's not how easy or hard it was. It's that I didn't like the shop at all. These kinds of jobs are not for me. :-)

I agree with the Hyundai assessment. Last week I did a Hyundai shop, on the phone the salesman called me honey about four times. I asked what colors they had available in the model I was assigned to shop and he replied "what's your favorite color honey?"@Eric in Tampa wrote:
My all-time worst assignment may have been shopping trailer park homes for a certain client when they were video shopped several years ago. The professionalism was good at some locations, and very, very bad at others. I stopped altogether, and vowed never to do them again (due to the level of aggravation) no matter how much money was offered.
Shopping Hyundai sales is up there on my do not shop again list as well. The sales professionals that I've encountered are beyond ridiculous when it comes to aggressive sales techniques.

I often seen assignments posted for shoppers to go into a shop and purchase an item only to have to return it later that day! Do people actually take these jobs on? I love jobs where I not only get paid but I also get something to keep. Even if its only a £3 grocery shop reimbursement on top of the payment fee, I often group several together and I purchase the basics my family needs like bread, milk and vegetables or sometimes use it to purchase a few goodies/treats.
I also love the DB&B assignments, I don't get paid any extra but I do get to go and enjoy a night away with my hubby or sometimes even my family and its paid for by the company. We have recently had 3 nights away in the past 6 weeks and in total we spent £24.00 of our own money which paid for additional drinks in the hotel bar. One hotel bill was £469.00 and at that hotel we only had to buy one round of drinks from our own pocket because we wanted them. These assignments are great and its very easy to complete the report as they are mostly tick boxes!
So what assignments do you like taking on and which would you not consider?
That's likely just a Southern thing. I have a friend who calls everyone "honey." Nothing meant by it.@tstewart3 wrote:

Does Disneyland still do shops? I know you can’t say who, but that sounds amazing!!
No they don’t. I shopped Disneyland for over a decade every two weeks. It ended in 2013.@Figament2 wrote:
