Buffalo Wild Wings Shop - 3 different MSCs - Can you use the same shop for all 3 or 2 different MSCs?

May 05, 2026 05:39PM
Apologies if this is an obvious question or obvious no, but I wasn't sure.

I see the same Buffalo Wild Wings location asking to be shopping by 3 different MSCs. One MSC is asking to evaluate food, the other 2 are asking for bar service. I actually see now that two MSCs are working in conjunction with the scheduler, so you probably can't use the same shop for those 2. But could you use the same shop for the bar service and the wing shop for two different MSCs?

Might be some ethical kinda things going on. I personally wouldn't duplicate shops like that.

I will, however, do two shops together if they are in the same location for different clients.. like a grocery store shop and a sandwich meat shop, or one of those flower pot shops.

The wing shop is sitting in the dining area, bar shop is sitting at the bar. Can't be in two places at once. And will they notice a duplicate receipt was used? Not sure. But, I would not risk being banned from 2 MSCs over it.

I guess if you were that hungry, you could do the bar first and then meet someone in the dining room later. You would need 2 receipts and 2 observations. The dining room isn't going to work for the bar audit and the bar audit isn't going to work for the dining room.

But sure, if you want that much food or want to be there that long, I do not see why you couldn't do both on the same visit. It's not like you are trying to get paid twice for one set of info. You are doing both scenarios on the same visit and they have nothing to do with each other.

.... Unless there's something in the guidelines of either one that addresses this.

Thanks, I won't be risking it. The shops I'm sure get paid out by the same company. It only crossed my mind for a split second because one note had the shop that the shop could not be done if I had shopped the location within the past 60 days. The others did not have that stipulation.
