This is the dumbest scheme ever. I can make more money faster with less work and only leaving my house once with store credit at stores I'll actually buy things from. Just buy random crap online at cheap values and return at whatever store sells them with a good return policy. Walmart works great for this.
Still doesn't mean it isn't sketchy and worth doing. You may be thinking you are screwing the company, but the bottom line is they will fire the little guy rather than the bigwig taking a pay cut because they aren't making enough.
