CORI Fee Increases

In a refreshing change of pace, I've recently noticed several CORI shops with fees larger than normal.

Within 15 miles of my zip code, there are about 10 ice-cream shops going for $15-$20 each. There are 2 locations of the roasted chicken shops for $6. And there are 4 or 5 apartment shops for over $60 each.

The ice-cream shops used to go for $4 or $5. The chicken shops rarely go above $4.50. And the apartment shops usually cap out much lower.

Is anyone else noticing increases in their areas? I'm in central IN.

Ok it just must be geographical because many of my "regular" later in the month good bonused shops have all ready been taken and done. Most at a small fee increase but not at all much of one.

@traveliz, maybe the shoppers that are usually in my region all transfered to your region! Over halfway through the month and still hundreds of shops left within a 100 mile radius.

I've picked up 7 bonused shops in 2 days. Love it!

i have noticed the same in my area. what a difference a month makes...last month they had very few shops but tons this month with nicely bonused fees. i'm enjoying july so far

Just snagged a $25 ice cream shop for Thursday, and it's not in a rural area.

There are two shops I want, one for $30 and one for $20. I'm just hoping they stay on the board till Thursday when I can sign up for them.

Ice cream, ice cream - a $25 ice cream shop??? I want one!

This morning I received the standard "commission increases in your area" email.

An apartment shop is now $100.
Directly below it is a clothing store for 6 cents.

The more things change, the more they stay the same!

Nothing left around here!

$3 to $8 and change here.....wah!

along the lines of fee increases, I was wondering why a shop would be listed available for a backup, but the fee keeps increasing. Someone else signed up to shop it when the fee was $3, and now it's around $12. Does she still have to do it at $3, but then if I sign up as a back-up, and it comes to me, I can do it for $12? Confusing to see the fee change when it's already been assigned...

If the fee is increasing and the due date still shows as "immediately" then it is not assigned. It has to do with rotation. If your reshop period has not expired it will often show as backup. Same if the general reshop period is still in force. That would be when the business requires say 14 days between shops and it has still only been 7.

oh, thanks so much LisaSTL! so, when my reshop period is up, then it will show as available, not backup? I did just do that shop about a week ago, and would love to do it again as it's a fav store anyway... Love to get paid to shop my fav stores! LOL!
I've only done about half a dozen shops, and am having so much fun! LOL!

Thanks!!!

Keep in mind, that is how it should work, lol! I've had others that allowed me to put them in my cart and then no date was available. If I believe I'm eligible and the system won't allow me to assign, a phone call is my next step
