Decades ago, my aunt was a mystery shopper. I remember her having to buy pizzas, magazines, and medicine. I’d long-since forgotten about it, until someone recently told me that that’s how she’s been able to sock away some money each month (she’s saving it for Christmas).

Corporate Research International is a legitimate company that hires people all over the U.S. I personally registered at their site, just so I could take a look at the back office interface. It’s a simple, un-fancy interface that’s easy to use. Just choose the distance you’re willing to travel, and the corresponding jobs will load within a few seconds. Some require “training” (viewing slide shows or videos) before you’re permitted to apply for the job, but the training is straight-forward and easy to understand.

Each job varies in the amount of commission you earn. Some pay $5 for you to evaluate stores & dressing rooms. Most of the restaurant job offers require that you make some sort of purchase, which you will have to pay for and then get reimbursed. In the case of reimbursements, your check will include the reimbursement plus the commission amount. I saw job offers for pizza purchases (all of which would be full reimbursed), with commissions ranging from $6 – $19 (plus reimbursement).

Mystery shoppers have the option of getting paid with direct deposit or via PayPal. You will definitely NOT get rich doing this, but in a such a weak economy, every little bit helps. In the cases of the restaurant jobs, you can feed your family for free, PLUS get paid for doing so.
