I was doing three shops/month for them at one point, but had to delete the long-distance one from my locations because I realized that even with a generous travel allowance, I wasn't making enough money to make the time involved worth it.... But if I can pick up one or two other jobs in that same area, with added travel bonus, I'd love to continue to do it, as it's the best of the locations I shop!
I'm thinking two shops/month on a regular basis is a nice number, since they're SO time consuming (not complaining, mind you, because the pay is great if you don't have to travel a long way, and the folks there are wonderful to work with)....
I wouldn't mind picking up a third one every now and again, maybe every couple months or so, or when I travel. I've gotten into the habit of looking for "orphan" locations when I'm going out of town so if there's one where I'm going to be, I can request it. But so far, the timing hasn't been right....
I learn something new every day, but not everyday!
I've learned to never trust spell-check or my phone's auto-fill feature.
