There is no need to upload bogus data to the server. You can create a *.osm file yourself in JOSM. Or you can download a nearby area and create all sorts of shops and restaurants in your neighbourhood. I have done that a couple of times. Also to test mkgmap:unpaved, I downloaded some area around my home and did some virtual road paving and unpaving. There is also the test-map (sp?) feature of mkgmap. It generates all POIs in an area centered around BASE_LAT and BASE_LONG (default somewhere close to London, almost at 0N 0E). I filled in the "Edge 705" column at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/POI_Types and corrected part of garmin_feature_list.csv based on my observations.
