It’s hard to believe that today is the last day of the year. I’ve had a wonderful time mystery shopping this year. I’ve been paid to visit many new stores and have eaten a lot of delicious food. I even got paid to enjoy a delicious $75.00 steak!
Below is a snapshot of my year!

I ate at 159 restaurants.
I shopped at 120 retail stores.
I visited 91 gas stations.
I shopped at 31 grocery stores.
I completed a total of 401 mystery shops.
I shopped 144 days.
I worked 198 hours.
Mystery shopping found me 14 years ago when I was in a lot of debt and it was one of the side hustles that helped me become debt free. As I close out this year I remember how grateful I was, and still am, for this fun and profitable side hustle.
Want to learn about mystery shopping? I have a free guide and I have also written a book Get Paid to Shop! A Step-by-Step Guide to Mystery Shopping!
Both are available here!
