Hey! Do you love to write? Do you like junk food?
If so, then perhaps you’d like to be a reviewer for The Impulsive Buy. We are currently looking for several new contributors to write their thoughts about the latest junk food and fast food.
It’s a paid gig, but we won’t say here how much we pay per review. However, we can say it’s enough for you to have a small Panda Express feast or partially fill a wheelbarrow with store brand potato chips that are on sale.
If you’d like to apply for the position, here’s what you’ll need to send:
A Few Notes:
To apply, please email your sample review, pictures, and bio to [email protected] with “There ain’t nothing I won’t do to wrap my lips around a Pepsi Blue” in the subject line. We will stop accepting applicants on Sunday, November 13, 2016 at 11:59 p.m. HST.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email us.
Thank you.
