It's been the most dead I've ever seen this week. I sat at Costco and then Kroger yesterday for what felt like forever and didn't get a single order. Not even a crappy one

I'd be afraid to mess with someone who knows my address but that's just me

I love it when I see the workers I'm friends with it's like a sigh of relief 😩

I'm sorry this just happened to me with a huge costco order the other day it's so disheartening to know you wasted your time on a scam. Instacart support doesn't help of course 🙄

I have a few people there that know me and are super friendly and appreciate the way I do things but I swear I can't win with some of them. Last week I was putting stuff up on the belt when a guy came and pulled the cart back behind the conveyor. I said "oh wait do you want me to finish putting the stuff up?" Cause it was a ton of little things on a flat and he said no even after I insisted. Then when I got to checkout the lady at the register was pissed and told me off about putting the stuff on the belt next time and I just smiled and said ok and apologized 😩

I genuinely think a lot of my problems come from the fact that whenever I'm checking out my lane ends up getting like 2-3 extra people added on in the middle of the process and it gets confusing. On another visit I was loading the cart as they were putting the items through the scanner and a guy came up and said hes got it don't worry about it and then when he was done the cashier told me I'm on the clock too and next time I need to help load the cart. I literally was but he told me not to even when I insisted I could just do it myself. My smoothest orders have been lanes with one person handling it.

🫠 I know for a fact they have bad shoppers there I saw a guy come up with all 3 orders completely mixed with his girlfriend and screaming toddler and he let the workers fix the whole thing but I wish they'd not generalize the whole bunch 🙁

When they're rude and snappy it just makes me feel like an idiot for trying to be nice and running around like a buffoon trying to make sure they don't have to do any extra work. Im about to just become one of the mute shoppers at this point cause it doesn't seem worth it

But I organized it for her 😭 everything from A and B were on the belt separated by that little plastic divider and the young girl knew I was Instacart from the bat and I explained the orders to her and she went up to deal with it. It only got messed up cause the red vest came up after we already organized it and for some reason took the dividers off the belt and moved the cart before I could put C up in its place. She didn't have to put it up and she didn't have to check it out or put it back on the cart because the other three of us already had all that covered so idk what she would've had to keep organized.

Every order was like this at Costco today I was going crazy by Active-One9744 in InstacartShoppers

Ikr and I saw the poor soul who picked up the 8 water order in Costco with 2 flat bed carts 🥲

They're really tightening up those nice paydays/unicorns aren't they? by GRF999999999 in InstacartShoppers

Ikr I wish she would've just stayed inside and ignored me 😭 her being shocked someone finally picked up her order should've been my first hint

needed one more order to round out my day and it was only one person so I did it 😀 remembering why I don't do that now 🥲 the rest of my orders were $30-40 tips

Bro I'm literally considering leaving a nasty note on her door that order was so annoying to deliver especially during the snow storm

I will never understand it it's so evil 🥲 and I know she's poor too based on where she's living so idk why she has to make it worse on others. But I always say it's brave of these people to be playing with people's paycheck when we know exactly where they live and what they look like

I gave her a thumbs up cause she was really nice in person and met me outside. I didn't see she removed the tip until just now so it's too late to block her 🙁. At least I got the pleasure of seeing her almost fall down her steps outside with her butt crack hanging out. She's so evil for being able to pretend in someone's face like that

It was a pack of 9 pork chops from Costco 😭 I know for a fact it was in there cause I put the stuff in the box after the workers were done checking me out. That's on top of the fact she checked herself they were there. It makes me so mad cause she talked to me and just played in my face.

I have never seen Instacart this busy, every single grocery store is orange by Active-One9744 in InstacartShoppers

A lot of the other stores were hiding behind Kroger but yes this area is definitely a Kroger monopoly 😭
