Scooters Coffee Drive Thru

I just discovered a bunch of shops for Scooters Coffee Drive Thru locations around me (it's a Great Plains regional franchise of drive thru kiosks).
As much as I love Scooters, I'm sooooooo not interested in the shop offer. $0 payment and up to $15 reimbursement, which could be attractive, but the devil is in the details. You MUST order two holiday seasonal drinks with an option to add a baked good, included in the reimbursement. The drink choices include hot or cold Mint Mocha, or sugar cookie latte or a gumdrop smoothie for the first drink and the second drink must be Iceberry Red Bull Infusion. None of these offerings sound even remotely like something I want to try, LOL.
The best part, is that the visit is timed to the second at three intervals, several photos of marketing signage are required, plus when you're all done, you may be requested to upload a thirty second selfie video of your reaction to the visit.
There are those that will jump all over this, but I think I'll pass.
If interested, it's the same MSC that does a major grocery chain.

Somebody will love this. Thanks, JW. I'm with you, though, even if I lived in that area, those drinks sound nasty. It would not be a shop for me.
That would be a nope for me.

It looks like the same shop is available through another MSC. On the other MSC, the guidelines are available to review beforehand.
Won't be me.. I don't know about their prices, and that's a whole lotta work for $0. And I'm not buying anything with redbull in it, not for any amount of money.
There are several locations in my city. I have one scheduled this week and the guidelines for my shop are not the same as this. I have no timings and only an exterior photo and a photo if each drink. Also, more choice in what to order. I wonder if it’s being shopped by multiple companies.
There is one within walking distance of my house. I will scoot around in my car and check it out. The report did not look that bad to me. I will give the Red Bull drink to one of my teens. The shop does not seem difficult in any way. Its only a value added if you like or want to try what they have to offer.

We'll be scooting by all the Scooter's shops...
There are only a couple of their outlets in my area, and I don't know if any are being shopped.

I have nobody for the offloading of the Red Bull drink, and I cannot consume it (diabetes type 2), and probably would not even if I could ingest it :-D

Have synthesizers, will travel...
Scooters isn't just Great Plains, we've got them here and there in North Carolina. One is in a small city about 20 miles from me where I frequently build routes.

Their coffee is great IMO, although I could do without them making the cashiers telling you to "scoot around." Too cute by half.

The shop didn't seem that onerous to me as far as requirements, but agree that $0/$15 is a non-starter.

I agree with the consensus that Red Bull is pretty gross. I'd probably just drink the coffee drink and find a nice storm grate for the Red Bull drink if I were inclined to do these shops.
If you have the chance to do the Dutch Bros shops, I highly recommend them. $10 pay, reimbursed up to $10, and you can order what you want, one drink or two. (I usually buy two and come in right under reimbursement.) No pictures except the receipt, no names, and no need to get out of the car.

That's my kind of shop.

If your path dictates you walk through hell, do it as though you own the place. -unknown
There is a Scooters in this nasty little town near me here in Northern AL. There are 4 or 5 other little kiosk drive through coffee shops in this area too. But I don't know which are shopped. Since doing the Joe Muggs shops with their powdered "coffee" drinks I've shyed away from buying coffee at random coffee places.

Goes to show how much I've been following them. Not so long ago they were only located in Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas. Pretty far reaching growth in a short time.

Yes! I tried one some months ago, and it went smoothly. A pic of store exterior was also needed.

For Scooter's, I think I've seen them for a while now in my area in Texas. It doesn't get as much traffic here and located away from a street corner/intersection Those smaller drive-throughs used to be Seattle's Best Coffee or a smaller Smoothie King. The building always seems to rotate out.

No Dutch Bros. in NC, sadly. sad smiley Would definitely consider at $10/$10.
I looked it up online and it looked good---just for a sip or two. Very pretty in the cup.

For anyone wondering, the Redbull drink reminded me of the flavor of a blue slushie.
How come the MSC does not give a shop fee for this shop.?

Is it the same reason the Canes MSC does not give a shop fee to start out (Unless it is bonus)
A $5 fee was just added to the 6 shops within 50 miles of me. None have been claimed yet.
They were all assigned quickly in my city. A $5 fee isn't worth much if you have to drive far.

The other MSC had a Starbucks shop. More simple and focused around holiday handcrafted beverages and timing. It might've been a competitor shop. Red cup today!
