Interested in your experiences.

I’m seeing offers for what appears to be complex assignments requiring others to accompany us in various entertainment pursuits (but often not enjoy the experience together) stating generous reimbursement (but actual pay is $20 with occasional $10 bonuses) and eye-catching totals in the title touting $200+ for several hours of time, travel, specific and sometimes time stamped details, and lengthy written reports…if your submission is accepted.

How has that played out for you in terms of effort, experience, and reward for you and your guest(s)?

I've worked with them for years. Schedulers & owner are great. They don't have too much in my area but when something pops up that interests me I don't hesitate to apply for it.
This isn't the type of company where you are going to pay your mortgage doing their shops. This is the 'I really want to take my kids to xyz place but don't want to spend the money to do so'....
I've done zoos, Rollercoaster parks, water parks, bowling alleys, movie theaters, tourist spots, museums....

I tried several times, but the jobs never matched up with the attraction shops that were available. And they seemed to have a lot of required purchases. I never ended up doing any jobs for them, and I think they deactivated me because I never did anything.

Reports are easier than they seem in guidelines. Schedulers are always available

I agree that their come-ons are way more attractive than reality once you realize the fee is small and it’s mostly reimbursement.

I have done a few theater checks. One did require us going to separate showings of the same film. It was stupid and we did the checks and left. Our showings were an hour apart so she had to wait to get started, I had to wait to catch up with her to leave. We had no interest in the eligible film. But it was heavily bonuses so worth it for the $$$. We then went out to eat. The second let us watch together so we picked a show we wanted and stayed for the whole film. It was an easy report. Shop was also bonused to make it worth our time. We did a dinner shop on our way home for another MSC.

My second experience was a very lengthy one at an amusement complex. I took two friends and we had fun but I had to take over 50 photos and make lots of notes. I spent many hours on that report for $10 fee. But it was big reimbursement. We enjoyed it but are not rushing back.

I agree it’s mostly good for paying to let you go to somewhere fun that is outside the normal budget. A kid can just enjoy it. An adult guest can help a little (my friends helped with name tags and descriptions). They do have great phone support though so you can get help if something pops up instead of hoping you got it right.
