HEY JACOB - It's working!!!!!!

I thought you'd like to know. . . .

I received a BONUS email for the infamous Fast Food Golden Arches shops. There a quite a few in my neighborhood and all at a bonus shop fee!!!!

The boycott must be working because I have not seen these shops EVER get a bonus in my area.

Unfortunately, at the bottom of the listing were $4 shops for a Cafe chain that no one seems to want either. I would love to shop and evaluate these Cafe's since I frequent them and they desperately need feedback.

Keep the Boycott going everyone!!

modario, just forget about the boycott and take those $4.00 shops, you frequent them any way, so go and do the shops and you will be $4.00 rich.

I know who the MSP is for McD's, and they're always bonused here starting mid-month. Move to my area, modario. Or come visit. I'll do the shop, and you can have the food.

I've seen the cafe shops. The client is who? You can say it without the MSP.

I had my email filled with bonus shops yesterday too. So it's working here too.

Izzy,

Maybe it's worth it for you but I have a family with 2 young children and I'm not about to invest any time that takes away from time with my family to shop for $4.00 even if I frequent the establishment. It's about principle and I'm not that desperate. Yes, it could prove helpful for them, and ultimately for me but AGAIN IT'S ABOUT PRINCIPLE!

Oh, Sneakers. The cafe shops are from the same MSP as McD's and the client is Panera. Maybe the shoppers around my area are with the boycott. How did you miss it? Unless there is more than one MSP handling McD's?

As for your generous offer for the, YUCK, food. NO THANKS! I've done only one of those shops to get my foot in the door. We don't even eat that kind of food in my home. That's not to say that the cafes are any better but I love their Souffles! Anywho, so far that MSP hasn't had that many high paying shops around here. I've been doing more along the lines of $15.00 and up which is worth it for me.

Izzy, you always sound like you DO enjoy life.

I do sneakers, I do enjoy life and I am a positive person, why be negative, if I like to do the $5.00 shops, this is my personal choice, I don't like when people tell me "don't do this, don't do that", let the people be, let me do it, I am a big girl now!!

Izzy,
You have contradicted yourself. You don't have to partake in any of it and neither do I. We all do what works for ourselves and makes us content. Peace!

I've been getting those emails too with bonus added to do the shops. I'm not buying.

I'm shying away from "reimbursement shops" altogether. I'm going to the $15-$35 shops with only a business card required or pictures.
I was just counting my shops for the past couple of weeks. I've done 22 shops and only 3 reimbursment shops. (those were restaurants we visit on weekends)

Yep we have a choice to do what works for us!!

That's awesome Billie!

I've been steering away from the reimbursement shops too. Last night, I gave exception to a restaurant one since I wanted to check the place out anyway. I've had some odd ones around here. I had the opportunity a while back for those business verifications shops you mentioned on another thread but they alawys get assigned to another shopper. I'm going to keep trying. Sounds like your having FUN!!

Peace!

Just saw dozens of $4 and $5 shops at CRINY. What's working?

EXACTLY!

THEY ARE STILL OPEN AREN'T THEY????

You're such an optimist.

How do you know how many had been taken?

Darling. . .

the glass is always half full for me and how do you know how many were not taken?

CRI needs to change their fees, obviously. I've been keeping tabs on quite a few of their shops and the same ones are there day after day in my neck of the woods. There are a few other companies with same shops still outstanding at the same pinsky rate, so . . . . . . .

OK, you've been watching the same jobs. I haven't had time. We'll see.

I'm glad people don't take the cafe shops. More great food for me

Half sarcasm there.

I haven't seen any changes. The most I've see is a $5 "bonus" on a reimbursement-only shop.
