 Imagine you got paid to do shopping,and could keep the things you bought with other people's money. Does this sound like a dream? Well,for some,like Amy Knott,from Chicago,this is their job.

 Amy Knott is a mystery shopper. She is paid to visit a store, eat in a restaurant, go to a bank,stay in a hotel, get her hair cut, fill up her gas tank,or see a movie. She pretends to be an ordinary customer,but afterwards she writes a report about her experience,commenting on things like：How long did you wait in line? Was the food hot? Did the cashier say " Thank you.”？Did the restroom have soap and tissue? This gives companies useful information about how they can improve their customer service.

 So who can become a mystery shopper? You do not need any special qualifications or experience, but you need a good memory,an eye for detail,and good writing skills. When you apply for the job,instead of an interview,you will be asked to write about some?thing like "What was your best shopping experience?"

 What is the pay like? For a 15-minute visit to a store,you might get $ 10 and the cost of what you buy. For a haircut,you might get $ 35 and the cost of the haircut. Most mystery shoppers do this job in their spare time,like Byron Jenner, who visits a restaurant on his lunch break every day and earns about $ 500 extra a month. But others,like Amy,make it their full-time career,and earn up to $ 40,000 a year.

  "I love mystery shopping. I can't believe I actually get paid to have fun," she said. "For example,tonight my husband and I will go out,have a $ 150 dinner, go to stay at a luxury hotel, and I'll walk away with $ 300.”
