Ah, Kathy, I think there's a secret here -- I always reply to the text/e-mail, and I always get an answer. I don't apply on the website! The scheduler who texted/e-mailed me always puts in the PaD request for me.

I've put in for about 20 of these and never even got a sniff. Same true of other "opportunities." I'm about to just bag it and deactivate because they've clearly got a few "regulars" in my area who get all the work.@myst4au wrote:
I do the unrevealed ink shops as fillers because they are so easy once you get used to them. I always claim the small reimbursement - sometimes I find great bargains and at least it is a discount.
In my area, these are all self-assign, first come, first serve. So if you have to apply as back-up shopper, then yeah, that can be a bummer. But if you can apply for them before anyone else, you should get them. If there is ever a rotation issue, you can call Trendsource and dial extension 105. You'll get Brenda's voice mail, but if you leave a message requesting some shops that say rotation issue when you know there aren't any, she should assign them to you. Be pleasant and professional. That's how I get mine when it says rotation issue and I know there isn't one. Good luck!@KokoBWare wrote:

I tried one once (ink), and the business had all the ink behind a counter. Employees only behind the counter. I couldn't figure out how to get photos with the employee standing right there watching me, so I gave up on the shop.
When I asked, he said they were stolen so much, they moved the display behind the counter. True -- unless they are overpackaged, ink cartridges can easily be slipped into a pocket.

Isn't the only one you need to get a photo of the ink, revealed? I don't do the unbiased so I don't know the requirements. The revealed are much quicker, you don't have to wait for an employee to get assistance.

The one I do requires photos of the aisle, signs, and the price tags of missing inks. That would be nigh unto impossible if the ink cartridges are behind a counter. I visit drug stores, big box stores, etc. and the cartridges are always on peg hooks in an aisle.@JasperJohnson wrote:
