I shop for both companies. I do CC shops and occasionally a bank shop for Sinclair. They pay monthly unless you happen to get cashback on the CC, in which case it is deducted from your check. Trendsource pays bimonthly. I like Sinclair because I really like the CC shops. I love TS. I love OSI's on-site inspections. The grocery stores in my area are 5f/9r. This I don't really like because I think it should be at least 10R and 7f. (minimum wage/plus R/decent amount to work with)However, you can get nice bonuses when the deadline gets and they have no one else to drive 2-3 hours to a location. I prefer the distance ones because you can hardly get anything in Ga for 9 dollars (a pack of toilet paper and 2 one dollar dog treats, or a pack of soap and a few cans of pet food, etc). I get 21 pad for an hour away, 21+14=35, I route a bonused car wash with it and whatever else I can find then I don't have to worry if I spend 10-12 dollars. I check the whoo hoo items at every store, (discounted items because they are leaving the date or discontinued, etc) When I find good whoo hoo's sometimes I can't resist because I know I can't beat that price especially if it's something I might buy anyway.
