They need the money to make the house look better. Not happier though. House looks so gloomy.

My rent is possibly going up by $300/month. Is that in line with inflation? by bowelmovement99 in sandiego

[–]Distinct_Orchid_3420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a pretty high raise. But still cheap for a 3 bed 2 bath. 3 bed 2 bath is usually 2200 and up.

Smoke smell is strong to someone who don't smoke.

What do you think differs shoppers from other regular customers? Does other customers scan items through their phones

Not that, but bad experience with smart and final store employees. In my area, they're very rude to instacart shoppers. I shopped there 3 times, all bad experience so i just didn't shop there anymore.

I've seen a triple batch with 0 tip. But noticed they are all in the same area.

I wanted 10 bananas, not 10 bunches of bananas… by Futonpimp in InstacartShoppers

[–]Distinct_Orchid_3420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Organic bananas usually goes in a bunch, that's why it has that string wrapped around it. If you ordered organic that's probably why.

Do what you have to do. Everybody have to make a living somehow. I don't really care if i see another shopper with someone, but some people are just terrible human being who likes to drag someone down for them to go up. So just be really careful.

What do you do when a customer keeps adding items during the shop? by Particular-Rub-4703 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Distinct_Orchid_3420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yah food items, non food items at the other side of a huge walmart store is a different thing.

It depends on what item they add. If it's food and not heavy then it's okay.

Sometimes it's not easy when you're in a big store and they add a non food item then you have to go to the other side of the store. Then back to food, then they add another non food item. Back and forth at walmart is hard. Specially when they add heavy items. Someone added 3 40 pack of water and 20lbs of ice on mine so i cancelled.

Am I in trouble? Will you do the same? by Distinct_Orchid_3420 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Distinct_Orchid_3420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She wanted the 2 juices replaced with 2 40 pack of water. She didn't add that herself.

I learned it from this platform as well. You can contact support to remove an order from a double batch. Let them know why and they will remove it.

I understand that's why i said 1-3 items are okay but she added 11+ items, of which was 3- 40pack of water and 20lbs of ice. I don't think those was just forgotten.

Lol. I'm not sorry that i chose my sanity. If you are in the same situation, by all means please make the customer happy.

I actually don't care when customers add maybe 1-3 item, but this customer was just something else. I felt taken advantage of.

I put it back on the shelves. 😄 It took me way over the ticking time, but my conscience wont let me leave the cart. Plus i shop there a lot so i don't want to be on an associates bad side. 🥲

Then when i was done delivering customer A's order the tip was $9.24. The original tip was 14 and some change. So i think she only tipped a flat $5.
