Pay attention to the companies that hire a mystery shopping company and make sure you regularly shop or eat in these locations. Do not take on a mystery shop membership that won't release a few of its companies' names. If you're going to do mystery shops, make sure it's for companies you enjoy so your reviews can be more accurate.
Step2
Complete your shopping on the days that you are assigned to a mystery shop. Although the mystery shop may require observation over purchases, the money used to complete that workshop plus potential reimbursements are equal to coupons. (Example: If you are assigned to spend $2 in a grocery store and the mystery shop is for $10, that's $12 off of your grocery items.)
Step3
Attempt to make extra income from a mystery shop. For example, if you are assigned to complete a mystery shop at a video rental store, create a review for that movie to submit to a website that offers money for reviews or paid blogs.
Step4
For a mystery shop at a clothing store, mystery shop companies may require you to buy an item that you usually would not wear. Donate it to a charity organization and get a receipt because this may be tax-deductible.
Step5
Contact a company you've always wanted to visit, and offer to mystery shop the company for free if they will give you free food or items. Customer service is important to professional companies, which is why so many receipts come with surveys at the end and the option to continue more surveys. Your mystery shop may cost less than the company offering sweepstake prizes, and it's a surefire way to benefit from mystery shopping the location.
