I have been mystery shopping for about three years now. I had heard about people making money doing this and decided to research this. A lot of companies will hire mystery shoppers to evaluate how a company is doing, evaluate customer service, companies will do this so they know what aspects to improve on. I have done shops for banks, grocery stores, fast food, restaurants, retail stores, movie theatres, etc. I found a referrral company called "Money and Shopping Network" and decided to sign up with this company to learn the ends and outs of mystery shopping. Even though there was a fee to join this company, it was well worth it. I learned so much that helped me about mystery shopping. I learned the do's and don'ts of mystery shopping, how to fill out good applications and to get accepted by companies. The company has a big list of good companies to apply to, misc. resource forms and so much more. I had checked out several referral companies and this one was the best in my opinion. Keep in mind this is a referral company not the actual company that needs shoppers (however, this company gives an extensive list of available companies). To apply to mystery shopping companies, you should NEVER have to pay, it is always free. "Money and Shopping Network" gives you the training and knowledge to be a successful mystery shopper. I was skeptical at first paying a fee, however, it was well worth it for me and I made my money back within a week. There are two levels: yearly and lifetime membership. I got the yearly, however, I signed up over 2 years ago and I can still access the site. So my advice is to try that.

coupon deals at Publix
Publix has the best coupon policies in my opinion. Publix will double all coupons up to .50 with the exception of Publix store coupons. You can use as many coupons as you like, there is no limit on how many total coupons you can use at this store. What I mean by that is, for EXAMPLE: At Ingles you can only use a certain amount of coupons per $10 transaction, at Publix you can use any coupons you have for an item as long as it is not expired and for the correct item. You can use Publix store coupons( the coupons that do not have an address to mail coupons to) with manufacturer's coupons. Publix has flyers at the entrance with store coupons. Sometimes there are several different flyers. You can get some really good deals using a Publix coupon and a manufacturer's coupon together for an item. Most Publix stores will take internet coupons (these are manufacture's coupons). Publix will also take other store competitor's coupons. Another thing I just learned was that Publix will allow you to use the peelie coupons (that are attached to an item) with a manufacturer's coupon or store coupon for that item.
Publix has some good BOGO (Buy-one- get one free) sales. You do not have to buy two items to get the discounts. Each item rings up at half price. If you want to buy both items, you can use coupons for both items. You can also use a BOGO manufacturer coupon for these items also to get one item free. As you can see, you can save alot of money at Publix with their sales and using Publix store coupons and manufacturer's coupons. One last word, in the Publix flyer that comes out on Sunday( in most areas), there is a coupon for a .01 mystery item. This coupon is good only for sunday and monday. You have to find out at the store what the mystery item is and spend at least $10 to qualify for it. I have got free coffee, peanut butter, candy, etc.
