Mystery Shopping Reviewed!

In an effort to increase my income and decrease my spending, I tried mystery shopping. I was extremely skeptical at first.

Are these companies really going to pay me to shop in their stores? The answer was, Yes.

I signed up for a few companies that provide mystery shopping services and I started receiving e-mails about mystery shopping jobs in my area.

The jobs I started to receive ranged from $10-$25. For example, to secret shop a grocery store I received $5 in free groceries and was paid $5. I also secret shopped a lighting store in my area and was paid $15. My husband and I did a secret shopping job together at a restaurant. We each ordered a drink and had some appetizers and were reimbursed $25.00, which included gratuity. It was nice to have some time together and not have to pay for the drinks and food. We had a fun great time with it.

Mystery shopping has been another great way to increase our income. I have been able to accept the jobs that work for me and I have been able to bring my son with me on the majority of the jobs I accept.

If you are looking for another source of income, I would recommend Mystery Shopping.

There are so many companies that provide mystery shopping opportunities. The hardest part of the job is finding which companies you should sign up for. I would recommend recommend subscribing to an online directory that will put all the secret shopping companies in one place for you and let you know which companies are the best to work for. It is a great way to start!

The directory I would recommend is secretshopperconnection. You will find out how to get free money to shop, eat for free, stay for free at upscale hotels, and enjoy free vacation.

Have fun Shopping!

CashCrate Is My Favorite GPT Site


Through the month of August, I have tried a few new GPT sites. I have to admit that I do not like any of them as much as I like CashCrate.


CashCrate confirms faster then any other site that I have tried, CashCrate pays out at $10.00, and CashCrate's site is by far the easiest site to navigate through.


I received my second check from CashCrate last week. I was so excited to take it to the bank I forgot to take a picture of it. So I have taken a picture of the check stub. I earned $26.56 last month with CashCrate. More then last month and that was my goal!


In addition to CashCrate being easy to complete offers it also has a great referral program. If you know anyone who is looking to make some extra money and you refer them to CashCrate, you earn 20% of their earnings, and 10% of the earnings of people that they refer. You also receive a $3.00 bonus when a person you directly refer reaches $10.00.


If you are looking for a GPT site. I highly recommend CashCrate.

August 1st

Okay, today is the first of the month and I am excited. July's earnings were good. I earned $29.19 from Inbox Dollars and $26.56 from CashCrate. July's Earnings Totaled $55.75! Not bad for a few hours of work.

This month I am hoping to try Two New GPT sites. Yesterday I signed up for Fairy Tale Treasures. I am looking forward to seeing how this site works. I have high hopes for this site because a few of my referral sources have done well with Fairy Tale Treasures.

I will keep you posted on how I like Fairy Tale Treasures. I will also add the pros and cons of this site to the, What Free Online Paid Survey Site is Right for You, section of my blog.

I am hoping with the addition of Fairy Tale Treasures, I will make $75.00 in August. I guess only time will tell. I'll keep you update!
