thanks ken.

it's for bored housewives and dumb kids. there's rare cases where you get to go to the movies and they pay you $50 but to do it you would have to visit McD's and target many times over for about $10 a pop, if that. the other thing is, usually you have to book these things for a specific time of day on a certain date weeks in advance.

so you could conceivably get paid $7 to rate your experience of buying a $6 burger at mcD's for a return of $1 and stomach cramps.

such is the life of the mystery shopper

a long time ago I worked in a ''micro-marrketing firm'' aka call centre that was the middle man for mystery shoppers. I had to give people mystery shopping jobs and take their results later...it was for KFC, Pizza Hut and Shell. They did get paid not a bad amount to go off through a KFC drive through and rate the service. Some people just didn't get enough jobs and would ring and complain cause they wanted their 'free' bucket of chicken...and to rat out how shit their local branch was. That company got bought out by some other company in Sydney. If you like fast food go for it...(and Velvet's right..you get certain scenarios...like 'buy a family meal deal and get it delivered')...otherwise I wouldn't bother. It's like being a spy...a really lame spy.

I went and did the $50 bucks to check out a gold class cinema thing, but I got that due to an ''inside Job'' isn't that right VelvetDogge. Unless you're getting hooked up with that stuff all the time you'll be going to Coles in some far flung suburb, they'll pay you like 2 bucks on top of the 5 bucks worth of groceries you were meant to buy. Well, at least that's my experience with Gapbuster anyway.

My mum was a mystery shopper for awhile. It's kind of fun sometimes, but not too much effort for too little reward.Pretty much need a car, get paid virtually nothing and most of the things you have to do are just annonying.

I did some mystery shopping on my mother's behalf. Some heffa at north rocks 7/11 got roasted. Didn't give me my free promotional donut with my hot chocolate, wasn't wearing a name badge, made no attempt to be pleasant.

my business partner's ex-gf used to mystery shop hotels and star city casino etc. They used to stay in expensive rooms and use the restaurants, and got paid for it.

One the other side, I knew a bloke at a car type place that unknowing tried to chat up a mystery shopper. He was rather persistent and got into heaps of trouble.

Hahah, I think my mum may have roped your mum into that, Luke! My mum was a training manager at a mystery shopping firm for years. Lots of stay at home mums and they'd force long term dolies to do it as well. Working there, our dear mother was able to scrounge a restaurant meal for us on a near weekly basis - almost invariably at pizza hut. I can't think about hawaiian pizza children's meals without wanting to hurl.

I used to mark the surveys for them when I was a kid - assigning points per answer, also things like correcting spelling and grammar, and flagging answers that didn't address the question kinda thing, hilarious. Half the people they employed were semi literate, so it was pretty funny. You'd get questions like ''Give a brief description of the employee who served you eg height, build, hair colour, name badge'' and the answer would be (this is actually my favourite answer ever) ''He were hansum and smell good he is my type'' (and in the ''further comments'' section she asked if there was any way we could get his phone number for her. HAAAAAAAAAA!)

There are some heaps funny calls you can do though - sometimes you'd have to pretend to be really angry or inappropriately sexual.

When we ordered a employee shouted loudly. does this shirt make me look fat

Car in front of me looked like it was big.

que time to weight fat pepole in takes to long

The chap in butchery was the usual boner but today as they are short handed he was packing.

the lady who severed me was the same as last week-she wore her name badge last week and it said carol.

I swear ''Batman'' is what the 2nd crewmember had on his name badge. He was as helpful as the masked crusader.

When I arrived at the final window to pick up my meal, I was given my drink and told that the hotcakes situation was critical.

In fairness to the store, a contractor was painting at the time making a lot of mess. It was really noisy as a man was in there talking loudly about a long condom to the female staff members (he had a real bird sitting on his shoulder).

While I was eating my meal in my car, there was an employee working with a hose to clean something up in the storage/waste area. My car window was open. He turned on the hose and I guess there was a leak in it. Water sprayed all over me.

I was unable to express within 8 hours because I was admitted to the ER shortly after the assignment ended. I can obtain the Police Report if you need it for validation.

Q11f- There will be a bush removed- as there was potential robber hiding within it- that attacked a woman.

While I was waiting in line for my order to be taken, I observed Mark attempting to kill a wasp by smashing it repeatedly against the drive-thru window with a serving tray. (startling the customer on the other side)

The poor girl looked scared out of her wits - Her boyfiends ex girlfriend was in the store and had threatened to bash her.

When I walked into the sales area, the staff member looked at me with another staff member and ignored me. The sales person uninterested when serving me and kept looking over my head when speaking to me. The staff member kept shaking his leg which made the whole body fidget, and also scratched his privates in front of me (gross)!

Mike, appearing to be management, did the rounds twice while I was eating. He also checked the men`s room for cleanlinee two times. Mike appears to be a hustler!

As commented previously, the male restroom cubicles are disgraceful in terms of privacy - the height of the door is very low and is raised from the floor, making it very easy for perverse individuals to peer over or under the door.

I was given a broucher and basically had to force myself on them.

Q66: the freezer have a stripper on top and got wet and couldn't read the price properly.

I marked Belinda down in dress standards as she wore an extremely low cut top & when she had to bend over to reach something her breasts nearly fell out of her top. I am not sure how I should have rated this?

The attendant had many facial piercings, but no name tag. he was distracted because he kept looking at my chest. Apart fro that he seemed friendly and knowledgable enough. We only looked at models on the wall display.

Very disappointing to see the poor level of customer service from Michael. There were inconsistent eye contact, no smiles, no mention of any of the products and worse of all, no farewell which I thought was quite pathetic overall. It would be highly recommended that Michael get retraining to brush up on the customer service skills, or be fired.

One male member sat strongly sexully sqeezing his female companion`s bare thigh throughout which may have been sexual and inappropriate.

Although there were toilets on the premises they were closed down and not in use anymore because of unsocial behaviour.

There was an unpleasant situation developing in the toilets making it unaccessible that should no way negatively impact on the staff on site.

i did not get his name as he did not have one

The blue light in the toilet made me feel a bit strange.

i went into this place and found it to be a good place .

after driving away from the window discovered what I thought was a receipt was a girl

What was to the left of McDonalds? Stupid Prices store

what is vakid not yes or no on both not just one huffman and spenard

i feel special

the garden beds i looked at needed wedding

The place was very clean.It was like Disneyland.

I was served by a young gay name Ben who work in Chatswood branch temporarily because Dora Hall is in holiday

Shopper was served by a child, 8-12 years old. The child was not wearing uniform. A staff member in full uniform was sitting out the back.

THE TIME WE HAVE TO PUT INTO DOING THESE ASSIGNMENTS IS NOT WORTH IT AS THE FEE OF $5.00 IS SLAVE LABOR

Black stump was tied into mystery shopping too!
I'm pretty sure your mum introduced my mum to the wonderful world of mystery shopping.
My Mum quit after been a mystery shopper for 5yrs or so because she didn't get paid for a report she was adament she returned to them. By that stage I don't think your mum worked at the mystery shopping joint anymore.

There was a lot of go to some car dealership and say you want to buy a car.
