Unpaid Store Guides

What if you had a store where the employees didn’t actually get paid, but just liked hanging out and helping other people find cool products?

Come to think of it, I think SecondLife has an arrangement like this, but I forget what it’s called. Anybody know?

    Have you ever seen the original Car Wash?

    The ads on this post are for ways to eliminate hospital bills, get online pay day loans and Madam Zola, Voodoo Worker. I guess this is what Google thinks of your idea.

    If this was just volunteer, I could see that, but someone would need to be the honcho to coordinate I’d think.

    I would say not only just helping find products… but also providing services (consultants?) or lists of people that could provide that service.

    Don’t know anything about SecondLife.

    I get fours ads up top, for: Tattoo, Your Chinese Symbol, 100% Safe Love Spells, and Harriet’s Lovespells. So do different ads flash at different points in time? Or are ads customized to you?… So how far is google “in” my head?

    I’m getting my free chinese symbol delivered to me. I hope this astrologer in as onto the game as Bruce Lee.

    Those would have to be some damned cool products. And/or a damned cool place to hang out.

    It’s really more the concept I am interested in than the reality. It’s fairly close to what I am doing here conceptually:
