There's an MSC that does the big home improvement stores. Boy, do I hate those! I still do them, because they end up paying me a bonus to go to the boonies and do these shops. You have to order something on-line to pick up in the store, then do a mystery shop with interactions in 2 or 3 departments, pick up your item, purchase something else as POV (oh, and don't forget names and descriptions of every interaction, plus business cards!). Then go somewhere and wait a while, and go in and return your on-line purchase.
My biggest complaint is the stores are HUGE. I'm always inside for the first part at least 45 minutes, just because the store is so huge. Then I have to go back in and return the item.
I always think, oh, I'll pick up a quick fast food shop, USPS shop, make the day really worth it -- and the fact is, these shops are so exhausting to me, I never have the energy to complete another shop!
The nearest one is 100 miles away. They do pay me adequately for the drive and time. But I HATE these shops. To the point of I'll have nightmares about them as they get closer to due date.
I have regretted taking other shops after completing them, too. Like the recent change of MCP to HS Brands -- did my shops I used to do for MCP, then found out I'll be waiting 75-90 days for pay. No way, Jose!
