Mystery Shoppers

The answer to your prayers.....Getting paid to shop and getting reimbursed for your merchandise!  Mystery Shopping ads really glamorize the idea of shopping for merchandise then filing reports on your experiences to earn $10 or even $20 per hour. 

The Bad News: Most ads for Mystery Shoppers are actually scams that hit you up for $29.95, or $19.95 or $49.95. For this fee, or "application charge," you will be supplied with a list of places and companies that may hire Mystery Shoppers. Usually, this list is simply a collection of department store addresses and contact information. You could contact the stores yourself.  Another scams requires that you actually buy merchandise from a particular web site. The employer promises to refund your purchases. However, the employer will always find a reason not to issue a refund.

A lot of Mystery Shopping is done by the store's own Buyers or the Merchandise Managers, who have many years of experience, and who are very familiar with suppliers, prices, products, special promotions, and the like. Generally, this does not involve actually buying the merchandise. Furthermore, stores need to change the people they send out on these spy missions so the competitors will not catch on. For this reason, Mystery Shopping can never be a full time, permanent job.

The Good News: There are some legitimate companies out there that use everyday folks like you and me to test their staff.  Shop around carefully and check out some of the more popular companies, just be sure to read the fine print.  Also, if you buy a list from one of the more popular companies, make sure they offer a money back guarantee!  Who knows, at the very least you might get a few free meals.
