My fellow DFWers, we have a trio of shoppers who communicate regularly by email and meet almost every month to chat, pass on tips and leads, and generally gripe, moan and celebrate whatever. If you're interested, send me an email. We help each other out a lot and we are happy to include anyone who wants to contribute, not just take - if you know what I mean. It's all about healthy competition, not do-or-die. I am in Arlington and the other ladies are in Plano and Southlake.

| I've been a lurker for a while now and just recently decided to start posting! I'm in the Houston area, Fort Bend County to be exact. I've sporadically done MSing for about 3 years and just recently picked up the pace and am now doing about 3 shops (sometimes more) per week. All I can say is "Thank Goodness" for Volition! i've gotten some invaluable tips and insight, thanks to all of you! |

Hi to Ruth in Pittsburg!! I'm from Longview, not too far from ya, but I don't get over in your neck of the woods very often (did that sound east texan enough for you?)
But, I'd love to meet you sometime to visit and exchange ideas. 
I've just started Ms'ng and merch'ng, and I'm thinking that I'd like to do more merchandising and less ms'ng. At 60 , keeping up with so many names and timings down to seconds is quite a challenge to this brain |

Hi Gay I dont never shop in Longview either I just most of the time do all of my mystery shops in Gilmer, Mount Pleasant, winnsboro and Pittsburg so maybe if you could meet me in one of these places it would be nice. I never come to Longview though.

Hi Ladies!
I am actually in between Lindale and Van. I primarily shop Tyler and Canton. I normally only do mystery shops as demos and merchandising are too much. I got a call the other day by a scheduler to do a demo job, however, I work full time and am unable to do those.
I really would like to network with other east Texans. Good to see you Texas ladies out there.
Now I don't feel like the lone ranger.

| Can you tell me what company contacted you to do demos with them so I can see if I am connected with that company. Becuase I really enjoy doing demos in the east tezas area and you should check it out becuase it is fun and most of them are on thursday, friday, saturday and sunday and some of them even pay up to 100.00 if you get with the right companies. |

Hi Mikki and DGenoway! Do you get many jobs in your area? I've just started MS'ng and there aren't many jobs available here in the Longview area. I'd really like to get more into merchandising part-time (no heavy stuff  ), maybe something like a greeting card route for 10-20 hrs a week. If you guys run across anything like that will you let me know? So far, all I've done is FF, except for one merchandising job that turned out to be nothing since they were notified by their home office not to put display out until after May 3rd and this was end of April. All this FF is getting a little old, plus, I'm gaining weight  .
Would you'all like for me to email you if i see something in your areas |

Hi Ruth and Gay,
I really wish I could remember who it was that called me, however since I had a graduation to go to, I really kinda zoned out and didn't pay much attention. Also, since I work full time, I do a lot of my mystery jobs on the weekend. I can only do one on my lunch, as long as it is not over a hour.
Anyway, on the 11th, I will be in Sulphur Springs (my hometown). Then on the 18th, I will be in Terrell. I have not done any merchandising so far. But, if it paid $100.00 in one day, I might do it.
I would really like to meet up with ya'll sometime and chat and share some ideas. Ya'll ought to try the chat room, I get on there sometimes. |

| Hey Ruth: If you have not already, go onto the NARMS website and post your resume. I know there is a company looking for some demo people around the state; if you put your information in they might just call you! I will keep my fingers crossed! |

I have already posted my resume on narms and contacted all of the demo companies that I can get the numbers too to see if there is anything in my area. I know wal-marts are having demos becuase they are advertised in the sales papers at the back just cant find out which companies are doing what so I can get booked on my days off of work from E-z mart. any help will be appreciated
thanks ruth mcanally |

Hello fellow Texans.
I am in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. I have been shopping all of the North Texas area and beyond for quite some time now.
As Ada pointed out earlier, three of us get together about once a month.
If there are enough shoppers in your area,schedule a get together. It could be a great networking tool for all involved. |

Hi ladies and gentlemen,
I am in Lindale/Tyler. Which I am guessing is about half way between Ruth and Chrissy. I would love to get together sometime. Just send me an email of when and where. |
