-- Posted by 1ofakind at 10:55 am on Jan. 1, 2009 Anyone know of any real places to do paid secret shopping through?   I know you can search on the internet, but most of those are just fake places.   Anyone?   -- Posted by XTCofGOLD at 11:01 am on Jan. 1, 2009 paid secret shopping? can you explain what this is? -- Posted by Gaelle at 11:07 am on Jan. 1, 2009 I like to walk into sex shops myself...so no. -- Posted by 4est at 11:45 pm on Jan. 1, 2009 It doesn't really pay. I'm part of one (for Canada) that is legit and the pay is next to nothing. Most of it is like $10 per shop, and you have to buy something (which is included in your $10 fee) and you have to get transportation... All in all, it isn't worth your time to check the site frequently or read the weekly emails in order to snag a shop that's on your route or within 20 minutes of home once a month and make $10 minus the purchase you have to make. Even the restaurant ones rarely cover a whole meal for 2 people.
