A reminder to those who are asking the identity of the MSC for these fav foods. It will never be revealed here. Violation of all our contracts. So, alas, it is up to you to figure it out. Do your homework. You can find out. I did. Just read carefully, look at the list of favorite companies to shop for, you will find them. But it will never appear here. So, in a nutshell, don't ask!

There is private email.

Yes you can send someone a private message. However, that is still a violation of your IC agreement so proceed at your own risk. There is another option which is rarely discussed. You can ask the MSC if they are recruiting and give the scheduler the e-mail of the person requesting the information.

Bingo! Plus, some companies offer referral bonuses.

Actually, with all this fuss about Cinnabon.....I think if I wanted one that bad, I'd just get a shop nearby and then stop in and simply buy one. Just because you are a shopper, doesn't mean you can't go in as a regular customer! LOL!!!

In this case I'm sure your waistline and cholesterol count are thanking you!

Those two things haven't thanked me for anything in about 30 years. Not unjustly, mind you. :-)

I did a Cinnabon shop a year ago. I couldn't finish eating the cinnabon so I ended up sharing it with an elderly man who looked like he wanted one but couldn't afford it.

I snagged a Cinnabon that was in a hospital. I was so excited, I didn't eat breakfast so I could really enjoy the bun. Imagine my disappointment to find that the location had closed the week before to make room for a yogurt shop (which wasn't open yet.)

No Cinnabon, no breakfast and a taxing merchandising job!

I'm wondering if the person who posted about finding the company that does Cinnabon was just joking around. There is no excuse to say you have information and then sit back while person after person asks for the company. Fess up or simply tell us!

Assuming you haven't read any of the Independent Contractor agreements you signed or the posting guidelines for this forum or the 8 responses on this page in regards to the same subject, here you go. Unfortunately this format does not allow me to underline and bold the following.

Posting Guidelines: Do not reveal the clients of mystery shopping companies.

If the merchandising shop is so taxing why take it. $8 an hour is never worth working that hard. I do pretty good in this business but even though I never do enough (my wife would like to kill me sometimes) but I have not done a merchandising shop in my 8 years doing this work.

Jeanne, I'm wondering if you are just joking around. Fess up. There would be no excuse for someone who has been at the forum as long as you have not to know that we cannot reveal the clients of a mystery shopping company. In addition to the IC agreements we have with MSPs, the posting guidelines of this forum prohibit it. In addition, solideogloria posted that she had found the company that shops Cinnabon in September of 2009 - 2 years ago - a newbie poster must have found this old post when doing a search for Cinnabon. solideogloria is long gone.
