All the other theatres are too far out so I read a lot when I did those... yes, easy money... easier if the movie is worth watching and you stick around.My Frugal Miserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11044428940339154257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605038123653737692.post-65274631121398146132010-08-03T15:21:22.191-05:002010-08-03T15:21:22.191-05:00It was an open check at a theatre.

The movie was on two screens and the first showtime was at 11am and the last was at 9:30pm but I had to be there a little before the first showtime and stay a while after the last. I also had an hour or so between showtimes but I couldn't do much with that. It was time consuming but easy so I can't complain.Andy Houghhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14890062830011188772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605038123653737692.post-17326802232880957022010-08-03T06:36:31.961-05:002010-08-03T06:36:31.961-05:00Two full days?

There's not enough work in the local area and traveling, though necessary, kills my productivity. For example, Saturday's road trip earned me a lot of money, but most of my time was spent driving, not shopping.My Frugal Miserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11044428940339154257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605038123653737692.post-92053735418562929282010-08-02T08:20:10.095-05:002010-08-02T08:20:10.095-05:00A $1000 in a week.

This was for just 6 shops but one of the shops took basically two full days to complete. I am starting to get more bonus shops offered to me. Hopefully, that trend will continue.Andy Houghhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14890062830011188772noreply@blogger.com
