If you get excited for fall because you know it’s the season for pumpkin spice everything, the side hustle of your dreams is up for grabs.

Financial advice website FinanceBuzz is searching for the perfect person to serve as their “Pumpkin Spice Pundit” for the season.

Pundit to purchase Pumpkin Palooza products

The lucky candidate who will be chosen will have the chance to test and rate all of the Pumpkin Palooza fall season offerings of Trader Joe’s.

The goodies include fall-inspired beverages like pumpkin-spiced brew and breakfast favorites like pumpkin waffles and cinnamon rolls.

The taster will then use the information gathered from trying more than 20 fall-inspired food items to help the grocery chain’s customers choose which ones are the best for them.

FinanceBuzz will pay the selected Pumpkin Spice Pundit $1,000 for conducting this (tasty) market research, and pay for the goodies they will consume by using a $500 Trader Joe’s gift card.
