I'm always looking for ways to make extra money & have been contemplating trying mystery shopping. I know you have to be careful not to join any sites that charge a fee. I have one or two in mind that I know are free to join. Just wondering if anyone out there has any experience with mystery shopping? Is it worth doing? I know you can't make a living doing it, only a few extra bucks. What do you think?

I asked a similar question here on MyLot a few weeks ago. The only responses I got were from people who had been scammed. I know there has to be some legitimate mystery shopping jobs out there. I've had a few retail and food service jobs in the past, and mystery shoppers came to every place I've worked! These mystery shoppers have to work somewhere! I would really like to get a job as a mystery shopper, but I've heard so many horror stories of scam jobs! I would love to know of a reputable, legitimate mystery shopping company that is hiring!

After I started this discussion I found another one about mystery shopping that suggested checking out Mystery Shopping Providers Association. I looked into it & it looks pretty good. I haven't purused it fully but what I saw looked legitimate. Check it out! I would really like to hear from someone who has tried this! Good luck.

I've never done mystery shopping before, but, I'm interested in doing it. If you find a good free one and it's actually good would you let us know?
