Wendy's Shops with No Pay and Only Reimbursement

May 02, 2024 04:11PM
Talking about the main dine-in and drive-thru ones. I'll only pick up the ones very close to me.

Does anyone pick these shops up with no pay? Has anyone ever seen these shops offer payment?

I have never completed a Wendy's shop. As with any job, though, I weigh the work:pay ratio. Today, I received an offer for a $5 + $22 video shop. I did not give it a second's thought, as there was not any value to me. I can easily drive 1/2 mile to a wishy-washy and clean my Miata for $2.50.

As you only visit Wendy's location near you, to what extent do you enjoy their food AND how many pics, any of which could be the cause of a rejection, does the shop require? When the factors are in your favor, a small fee in less relevant.

I've only done Wendy's shops through the orange app. They always reimburse and have a fee, normally $5 or $10. Have not seen any in a couple of months.

I've only ever done one Wendy's shop, and it was a very long time ago. I don't remember what I was paid, or even if I was paid, or if it was just reimbursement. I do QSR shops for the food, the pay is there to make me want to go.. I'm not leaving the house for reimbursement only, not even on a route.

Do they want a photo of the see-through burger patty? I wouldn't go near the place unless there was a nice fee.

Well, it's true. Wendy's and Steak n Shake- the thinnest burgers in the industry.

Thanks for the replies. With this MSC, it had been long time since I've done any QSR shops for them. I don't have visibility to some of their clients and was curious as a point of reference. I haven't seen any payment after a couple of rounds. A long time ago, I remember all of those types of shops at least paid $5. These types of shops are made for this MSC's platform and are not too bad. I'll probably just limit myself to a couple of convenient ones.

I have told people, some of these fast food places with no fee, you're better off using a 2 for 1 coupon. You're getting a free item and no report to fill out.

Thinnest? It's all about if the weight of the burger. Doing a little Googling:

McDonald's 1.6 ounces (45.4 grams)
Wendy's "Junior" 1.78-ounce (50 g)
In & Out 2 oz. (57 g)
Steak & Shake 2.2 ounces
Five Guys 3.3 ounces 94 grams
Wendy's "Single" 4-ounce (110 g)

I know you can't say the actual name, but can you describe "the orange app" in a different way? I don't know which one this is.
