MF has steadily lost a # of clients over the past few years. Some moved to other MSC's, some stopped during Covid or discontinued for whatever reason, while others have gone on a less frequent schedule.
As other posters have mentioned, they recently lost a large gas and Chinese FF client. Also, a national Amer-Mex FF, a few other burger places, a bank, a well known book store, a retail store with the initials BL (not sure if they were nationwide or specific to my area) a hardware store, and some casual dining places. Some moved to other MSC's while some just vanished.
And, they use to have a much broader cellular/phone/entertainment client base. More companies, but also the one client they have managed to hang onto (for the audits) contracted their mystery shops at the same locations or in Costco stores to another MSC.
During tax season they have traditionally had audits at 2 large tax preparer brands. These are fairly simple, you just have to pray there are not a lot of customers in front of you as you go in w/o an appt.
There is a ramen place that comes and goes in my area. Not sure if the nuls are when contracts are being negotiated or if the rest only wants data for shorter periods.
The one I miss the most is a natural beauty store that is know for its bath bombs and no animal testing (found in shopping malls). It is a great place to pick up a gift or to treat yourself. Haven't seen these posted since last Nov or Dec of last year.
