The Courier missions are side-missions in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas which involve Carl Johnson delivering packages to various locations across the State of San Andreas. There are different businesses in each of the three cities. The Los Santos missions are for Roboi's Food Mart, the San Fierro missions are for Hippy Shopper, and the Las Venturas missions are for Burger Shot. After completing the courier missions, the businesses become assets.
Description[]
The mission is activated by getting on a specific two-wheeled vehicle parked outside a specified outlet. A short time limit is given to deliver packages in the form of a bag of white powder to certain designated places in the whole city around the business by throwing packages through coronas (by viewing sideways, as is when the player aims for a drive-by shooting). Once all the packages have been delivered, Carl must return to the outlet to collect a commission. The amount of money paid is based on the number of remaining packages and the time left. After a few seconds, some more targets are offered and Carl must deliver more packages in the same manner. The number of destinations and the distances between them increases over the four levels.
The motorbike/bicycle remains parked outside the store and the player may run the mission endlessly to earn extra cash.
Oddly enough, hopping onto a bike to trigger the job within sight of the police still results in a Wanted Level star being added.
Roboi's Food Mart[]
