Maybe it depends on where you live, I signed up for it and it was a total joke. But we live in a small community, so we may not have as many jobs.One example is go to Best Buy, pretend you are interested in buying a computer, see if the employee knows about the computer, and it paid like 3 dollars.
I do one online survey that pays you 10 bucks for evrey thousand points, I usualy end up getting a 30 dollar check at the end of the year. You can save the points and turn them in anytime, i just choose to cash it in every year.

It does depend on where you live. There are some “mystery shoppers” that get paid to test drive BMW’s and eat at first class restaurants, then I’ve heard of people, like your brothers friend, who get assignments for Sonic, etc. I think it depends on what is available in your area and what kind of assignments you like doing. It’s almost like an “undercover” person, I’ve heard of people going to banks to “pretend” to be interested in an account, but not really open one, b/c they’re supposed to review the customer service. I think thats where the bigger money is!
