I'm from Toronto and I've recently heard a lot of buzz over this program called Evaluate It. From what I've heard, this is how it works...you register with the program and then you search up the types of assignments they have. I think the assignments consist of evaluating/inspecting the quality of service received on flights, train rides,or at hotels & accommodation. You then select whatever assignment coincides with your own travel itinerary (i.e. the Royal York night's stay in August) ...and then someone from the program gets in contact with you and you tell him/her when you will be completing the assignment. Once you submit a completed evaluation, you can get reimbursed for part of the costs of your trip.

I've heard about this program through word of mouth and also read about it on travel blogs & forums as well as TripAdvisor. But I don't know much about it. I'm interested in finding more about it since it seems like I can stretch my travel budget further with this program. Has anyone heard of it or has traveled with it and has any experiences to share?
