Get Paid To Shop & A Free Meal, Too!

Take your family to dinner and get paid to shop by completing a restaurant mystery shop.  With a little effort and planning, you can seamlessly integrate restaurant mystery shopping into your everyday family schedule.  You know the places you normally go when dining out with the family. All you have to do is find the company that provides mystery shopping services for that restaurant.  Sign up with the company and get paid to shop…or in this case, paid to dine with the family.

Yesterday, I was planning to go to Panera Bread for lunch. It was chilly and rainy and the soup was just what I needed to warm my bones. But this is beside the point….. I decided to do a search to see if there was a company out there providing mystery shoppers for Panera Bread.  Getting paid to shop could only make my soup taste better.  I did a few searches for restaurant mystery shopping and Panera Bread and found the company in just a few minutes.

The company providing mystery shoppers for Panera Bread is Satisfaction Services Inc.  You can sign up to shop for this company at http://www.satisfactionservicesinc.com/join.html  Panera Bread shops pay $10 and offer a $10 reimbursement.

Other restaurants where you can get paid to shop or get paid to eat include Friendly’s, McDonalds and Five Guys Burgers.

For Friendly’s, you can sign up with National Shopping Service at http://www.nationalshoppingservice.com  This mystery shopping company will you a $19 reimbursement for the meal and pay is $6. For $25 you can feed a family or at least put a nice dent in the bill.

The same company manages shadow shoppers for McDonalds and Five Guys Burgers. You can sign up at http://www.shopnchek.com./home.html to accept shops for McDonalds or Five Guys.  The pay and reimbursement for Five Guys is $8 shopping fee and $10 reimbursement.  The pay and reimbursement for McDonalds can vary. The basic fee is $8 with actual purchase reimbursement.  This company will increase the fee for McDonald’s shops if they are having a hard time getting shoppers. Shop fees will usually increase to $9 or $10 but I have seen them as high as $18 or $20.

As you can see, being a mystery or shadow shopper and getting paid to shop with restaurant shops can save a little money for your family.
