I did that shop one time. It's a lot of details and I felt sort of bad that my golf partner had to put up with me taking notes while golfing.

Not a bad shop, I'll give you that.

Evaluating and mailing packages since 1994

My upscale retail are my favorites, with a good restaurant being second....although today I did a target new home shop and enjoyed
it, love seeing the model homes and what's out there. Today the
homes had solar paneling and the A/C cost is no more than $59.00 per month.
Low %, wish I were starting out again....sorry, mediocre leaves my mind as soon as I get home.

Live consciously....

Casino jobs that also involve dinner at a nice steakhouse.

Banks.

Check cashing at the payroll lending shops. In and out in 4 minutes. Pays very well. It should because of the money that they are taking in from the interest on loans. Something like 124%.

Restaurants, especially ones with reimbursement and a little bit of pay. I'm getting too accustomed to not cooking dinner anymore...

Oh yes, I do like restaurants as well.

Agreed-fastest money I ever make.

I also like observation/no purchase browsing shops. Very little time invested, grab a business card and go. I get to try on pricey merchandise and play.

Hotels, where I rack up rewards points, get some really great food, (and some blah food), plus a fee and a not very demanding report. It's those double and triple rewards points that really make these rock!

Based in MD, near DC
Shopping from the Carolinas to New York
Have video cam; will travel

Poor customer service? Don't get mad; get video.

Grocery stores on double coupon day. I know they're not the highest paying but I get a shiver of delight from getting my groceries for an absolute steal PLUS I get to write off the mileage.

Massage shops. Getting a massage somehow helps me remember details better! LOL!

YES! Reimbursed, at that. Pay for the groceries with an award-yielding card, and it's enough to make me giddy.

My favorite is the donation shop.

Hotels - in either a nice ski resort in season or a nice beachy type place in the dead of winter.

Well I am hoping that my dream location will show up again. There was a posting for a first set of shops, but I couldn't do it because of other things on my schedule. If it comes up again and I get it, I will let you all know about it.

Actually did a great photo gas station shop the other day. It was just checking to see if they had converted lights so only 4 pictures needed. Total time for the shop and reporting was 10 minutes. It was right in between two other shops I was doing so not at all out of the way.

Video shops for Ellis.

1. Banks, No cash outlay, 12 minutes, easy report.

2. Ice Cream, small cash outlay, not much in return but I get ice cream and eventually get my money back

3. Restaurants, Cash out but cash back, a few months later, fun, get to eat good.

4. Debranding gas station, this one was easy and relaxing, some pictures and got a decent amount for it.

5. Debranding hotels, love the pay and reimb. for room.

6. Regular Hotel Stays, decent money, nice nights stay, no pictures.

My favorite shop is where I can get a real expensive haircut. Next easy bank shop or restaurant.
