I wonder if they lost them to Field Agent. I have been able to do a couple of them for FA and they are similar with same client. .

I believe they said that they're done for 2021. They implied (or at least I inferred) that they'll be back with the same MSC in 2022.

My FA app keeps saying they are coming soon but it’s grayed out.

San Diego - CA

Yes, what amyann2 said. There won't be anymore this year but they are supposed to be back next year.

A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men.

I keep seeing them on FA. If they are grayed out, it means they will be active later that day. You just need to scroll down to see the times they will be on. I have seen them monthly in 3 different states since August, for all locations 1 take out, 1 delivery.

I thought Sinclair lost their pizza shops a long time ago. I've done similar pizza shops at the same company for other MSC's. I don't do anything for Sinclair anymore.

Do these FA shops pay you plus reimburse? App shopping is usually terribly easy so I would try this one night. Just not understanding if they open every night or what is going on.

There is usually a fee plus reimbursement but it varies depending on job. The pizza ones have been almost everyday in California recently but can disappear quickly depending on other shoppers and if FA reaches their quota.

I did my first FA last night. Got q delivery shop. Very easy.

where do you find this? I don't see an option for shops in FA.

They will be listed with the other missions. If you don’t see them they are probably not available in your state.

I don't really care if those pizza shops never come back.

Me too, I would not miss them cluttering the job board! The only reason I ever have done those shops was to help the scheduler get them done. Ten dollars is not enough pay to compensate the time and gas required. However, I would welcome them if the pay were higher or if they allowed me to order ahead the pizza and toppings I wanted. Those shops were still on the board this month.

Just show them, they will be active at 3PM. If you have the app open at 2:56 PM and click on the pizza mission, you will see that exactly at 3PM the lock will disappear and the assignment will be live. Need to grab them asap at that point. They wont reappear until either the next day same time, or later in the evening, within ~1h of due time, if the national quota is not reached for the day.

The current round of pizza shops on FA are apparently only available in certain markets/states. I've done a couple of them here in California.

FA easier than SCM

And a variety too.

I always thought we did these shops only as favors to our hard-working schedulers.

Haha those were the only shops they ever had in my area but they were easy up until the last round.

FYI: HS Brands still has pizza shops with that Brooklyn born chain located in just about every mall and downtown area.

Last time I did a shop for them for the orange and black pizza place was 10/1/20. I wonder if Sinclair lost the account.

I see them on FA as well - with various methods to be analyzed: mobile app / in store pick up. Delivery. and ins store order + pick up.

Same here. It's a tease in the morning and by the afternoon at 3:20pm Pacific Time, I check and it's all vanished. I'm told that once they meet a quota of shops done, they close out the opportunities. The opportunities open up on the East Coast first, so West Coasters get the left overs, if any is left over.

The FA missions seem to disappear before the 3:30 availability time. This appears to be the issue in western time zones as they may have a quota which is met by all you Eastern shoppers.

$5 pay and full reimbursement for the pizza, delivery fees, service fees, tax.

Yes, more of a variety. FA = Extramostbestest, calzone pizza, etc. The other MSC was just the Classic pepperoni + 1 order of crazy bread. I do miss the crazy bread, though!

I've seen that one with JMR. I was not sure to sign up for it because I wasn't sure if if the MS company is flaky with payment. Have you had any experience with them? Is the shop easy to do? I see them listed all the time and it seems no one signs up for them, so I was a bit worried.

I have not done shops for Field Agent. Maybe I'm slow, but i'm trying to sign up as a shopper here. It's asking me for a company email. What the heck am I doing wrong? Should I be trying to register somewhere else?
