Has Anyone Gotten Over 50% of Their Meals from MS-ing?

Just curious. I think I got to that mark in 2017 - with combined grocery shops and meal shops.

Has anyone ever done it with just meal shops?

Pre-COVID, yes, not for an entire month but for a week or two per month. Just depends how many shops I could get. Takeout shop from BJ's Brewhouse on half-price pizza day can be 5+ meals.

Now that a lot of restaurant shops are no longer happening, no.

I'm a relatively small person, and I normally eat one meal and a snack daily.

I've done a fast food shop every day since the 13th of this month. I eat half (or less), and the rest is my snack for later.

So, yep, definitely over 100% of my food. (I sometimes do 4 ff shops in a day, and give 3 away to my neighbors.)

(I don't normally do ff until they are bonused, so usually the first week or two of the month, I'm on my own, food-wise.)

Definitely, many months for a family group of 2-4. There was also the time they were testing the delivery apps, then it was 150%. I actually started each day by ordering a latte from the nearby MacD every morning for a month, plus 2-3 deliveries per meal. We even stocked the freezer.

I took a route of shops in Texas one time while I was traveling for work. I not only got paid and reimbursed for the meals which I paid for on my corporate credit card so my employer paid for the meals and I got to keep the reimbursement fees for myself and the shop fees. It was a very profitable week for me with the airplane/airport shops I happen to do for that trip as well as the hotel and restaurants.

For a week, definitely, for a month, probably, for a year, no way.

If you are signed up with enough mscs and in the right area geographically even at this time one could. Just what I know being shopped right now Arbys, Texas Roadhouse, Jack in the box (or Jack in the Crack), and grocery stores.

Yes, probably in 2017, if you count grocery and hotel resort shops.

Totally done this before. As well as with parking and hotel shops. Company pays via the Corp card, I get reimbursed via the shop. Win, win, win.
