Tobacco Compliance

The MSC lost the major convenience store tobacco compliance shop client. These were the quick and easy NOT REVEALED AUDIT shops. Does anyone know if another MSC picked them up? Not interested in the gas and store purchase ones with the required photos.

No idea. I am curious how long a shop take with the report, how much these paid; would they come up once a month; if there were available monthly, could you perform the shop then or were you locked due to rotation rules; and did they have a bunch available in your area?

I recall a thread where someone mentioned years ago they got paid $30 per stop for I think the revealed one where you have to get a manager's signature. The closest fee I have seen to that is $15. and they usually go for a couple of bucks less. Curious what the provisions are if there is no manager on site at the time of the shop.

Starts at $9 and went up to $25 bonuses plus reimbursement. No reveal. No manager signature. Shop usually take 2 minutes and report about 5. Very easy. No rotation limits. Usually twice a month. Every store in the area available. I did routes making $$$$.

I'm too old for these but my son is the perfect age. He did a couple of the revealed with manager signature. I shop Northwest Indiana, Chicago, Southwest Michigan areas and I've never seen the ones you are talking about.

@luckygirl0100 I am trying to get my daughter to do these. Seems like an easy shop -- the one with the manager's signature. Is there a rotation limit with the reveal ones?

I envision that if the manager is not there, then you would have problems or it would slow you down considerably if you have to wait for him/her to return.

1. Yes, there is a rotation. Can't remember off hand what it is but it's long.
2. A manager is ALWAYS there. My husband worked for this company when we first met. Company policy for a manager to always be in the store. If another manager isn't there even if they are on break they are not allowed to leave the building.

If these are the ones with an age limit of 21-30, they are showing up in my area in Presto.

If there isn't an age limit, I'd like to know the MSC also so I can jump on the band wagon. LOL

Yes the ones I’m referencing are until 30. Hmmm. I checked presto the other day and only saw the gas plus $1 reimbursement ones for the same brand.

Sorry I just checked and the ones I am seeing are alcohol compliance shops at drug stores for the same 21-30 demographic.

Ahh thanks. I saw those too. I wish more were truly “mystery” not revealed audits and manager signatures.
