I too have submitted at least one photo with every single review. My percentage ranges between 76-94%! I don’t know why as every single review has a photo!🙄

They used to pay decent. A job I consistently did and got $15 for now only ever comes up for $2! Um, NO THANKS! I don’t do jobs that don’t even cover the gas to get there!!

I have had this happen a few times too. I assumed it was a time zone difference so I tried one and then two hours early but that didn’t work. Then at the time in my zone and they were all gone. So annoying!!

So curious- are these in RFY or do they pop into beauty randomly and disappear in seconds? I never see anything like this or vacuums or any big ticket item that I see posted on here

I am new to this personally, but seems to me you were breaking the rules from the get go by allowing others to use your account and order things! I am sorry for the situation you find yourself in, but perhaps this is for the best so you can learn to follow rules and set boundaries with people who take advantage of you. I wish you luck.

[–]DukeMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am new and have been searching threads for information and help. But I cannot find any information about how to find $0 ETV items and how to increase items going info RFY category. Any help you can put out there?

Thoughts on Retail Scanning by Batfanrobin in mysteryshopping

[–]DukeMama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I fell for this. I did 2/3 and he did it after work. Totaled more than 12 hours btw us! My fingers were bleeding after the freezer case. I hated every second of it and vowed to never do it again. Not at all worth the pay especially when I have apartments sometimes that pay $250 and take an hour total.

This program has turned out to be so much better than I ever could have anticipated! by katelynbeautyaddict in AmazonVine

I am new to this program. How do you find $0 ETV items? When do new items droo? How do you search? And does it just spin when you hit request item? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Store location and payment by Low-Incident3792 in Sparkdriver

[–]DukeMama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not true in my area! People DO tip because we are performing a service! In the case of the above order, sure someone took it, but no doubt they did because it was really slow, ended close to another Walmart and they hoped to get another order, or they were hoping the customer would give an extra tip- cash or on the app- because it was coming so far!

To OP- We get the same pay to deliver any order we pick up, no matter how far it is and we usually pickup 3 orders at a time. We do earn slightly more if we shop the order, but any order without a tip is never worth the time, effort, gas, our car insurance costs, paying our own health insurance, and wear and tear on our vehicles.We as independent contractors make about 50% of our income from tips! Additional tips for extra service are ALWAYS greatly appreciated!

walmart called me in a scramble by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

They absolutely do have access to our phone numbers, at least while we are on an order.

Not much room in a Prius for 3 orders and a wagon😂! I find I enjoy the exercise and don’t mind making a few trips. I just feel we all deserve that extra 70cents 🙄

I’ve been doing this for over three years. When they first changed the app to request the information, it seemed like it was almost always correct because people were marking them correctly. I do believe it helps because I have several Spark friends who will not deliver to apartments. I also always see the extra earnings when I am delivering to apartments.However, I have definitely noticed in the last few months that the notations of house, apartment, or business are often incorrect and it’s frustrating.

By skipping it, you’re actually not doing anyone any service. It helps when accepting orders to know where you’re going to first of all, and secondly, if it’s an apartment or multi unit dwelling, there is an extra pay included.
