I am very interested in some of the ads I see for companies looking for mystery shoppers. The idea of getting paid to do what I love, shopping, appeals to me, especially when I hear they usually reimburse you for purchases. But how would I know what to do? Do the companies tell you how to get the information they want? Would I get to buy what I wanted, or would I need to purchase particular items that I may or may not need? Do you always have to buy things, or sometimes does it just involve asking questions of the salespeople?
