The last few days I have been getting multiple messages in rapid succession about the same two jobs from this company. I think the system has gone haywire.

Ditto. And as soon as I see 'storage' I hit delete. I've done a few of these shops for different companies and for me personally it is one of the dullest, most uninteresting shops around. I'm sure others must love them, but I am just bored to tears after only a few of them.
This is a nice company. Pay is through PayPal and like clockwork. They don't have a lot of shops here. I work for them every other month.
I have never worked for this company, so don't have an opinion one way or the other. I have heard good things. But the system went wacko sending out this stuff. I don't even qualify as it is a shop for military housing. :-(

This company is now in on the Papa John's pizza shops. They are offering a $7.00 fee with a maximum reimbursement of $15.00 for a large pepperoni. Also,only one shop per shopper is allowed. Sounds crazy to me.
A large pepperoni in my area cost $14.08 before tax. When the tip is factored in, the $7.00 fee will begin to shrink.
CRI may not be the best out there but they at least allow shoppers to do multiple pizza shops. They also reimburses the full cost of the pizza plus up to $2.00 tip. Unfortunately there are individuals out there who are grabbing the CRI shops for the initial $6.00 so the fee does not get to go up.

Hi UBUmeBme!
In the lower right hand corner of your post you will see "Edit Post" in blue letters. Please edit your post to remove the client name. It is a violation of your Independent Contractor Agreement to disclose a company's clients. Standard forum protocol is that if the client or company are mentioned in the thread the other one is not mentioned in the same thread.

Wow, a 4th handling that pizza company!
And I'm laughing because one claims 15 questions, the next 7 questions, yadda yadda.
The requirements I see are only for a sausage pizza. No eaters in my home want a sausage pizza!
They seem to be trying out any MSC who wants there name to improve the ratings such MSC has with being able to say, this pizza chain is international and our client. Shoppers will bear the low end of the stick in this equation.

Ok, with this one, it makes 4 MSCs that I know of that have this pizza shop.
And what's weird is that some locations are being shopped by more than 1.
So I guess like I could get a pizza from Pizza Shop A on Monday with MSP 1 and then on Tuesday go back to Pizza Shop A and shop them again with MSP 2.

I have to wonder if MSPs give clients a free or reduced fee trial period. Surely this client isn't paying full price to numerous MSPs.

Very good point. They probably do. Otherwise, I see no reason why this company is "whoring" itself out to all the MSPs they can find OR maybe they heard someone say mystery shoppers should sign up with as many companies as they can find and thought it applied to shoppees as well. LOL

I'm betting they are getting some freebies while the MSCs fight over the contract. The company may be not happy with what they are getting and think they use the "free sample" period to see what gets them the best reporting.
I agree with AM's analysis.
