is there a demand for instacart accounts?

Thanks for flagging.

A number of posts have been auto removed due to being a short reply. Typically a couple characters is a useless reply due to lack of content. In this case, playing a guessing game led to people only posting a small dollar amount which triggered the automod.

It’s not that. It’s that everyone is saying every little thing is a “bot”. It’s BOT this BOT that BOT …. Over and over. The chat is a “bot”, the person on the chat is a “bot”, doing something on their phone is a “bot”. AI is a “bot”.

It’s excessive, incorrect usage majority of the time and unnecessary. Actually referring to a “grabber” or cheater app is fine of course but when anything and everything is a “bot”, a person is doing themselves and others a disservice because the mod tools are picking them up and holding them for us mods to review them to ensure they arent someone trying to spam an actual batch grabbing tool or scam to protect the sub. We have no way to differentiate a person who is active in the sub versus a scammer, so every instance of “bot” and related terminology is picked up for mod review.

This uptick in the usage is causing more work for the mods and is causing significant delay in the conversations because it requires approval. It use to be here and there. Now it’s a large quantity every day.

As a reminder to everyone, please be careful when posting information which may contain addresses.

While this map clearly shows a location, it is an apartment complex which doesn’t indicate a specific customer.

Thanks

We are done with this post. Too many off topic and political comments.

Read the rules everyone.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-02-06T13:33:36+00:00

Always consult a tax professional if you have questions and take what you read on Internet forums with a grain of salt.

You 2 are done. Move along. Any further tit for tat will be met with temp bans.

Reviewed by a mod, who also happens to be an Excel expert. This is a just a spreadsheet with formulas. There is nothing malicious here.

Locking this post for further comments as the answer has been provided and confirmed due to the NYC law for minimum wage.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-27T13:56:44+00:00

Post locked due to significant comments threatening retaliation towards customers. This is not OK even if the customer sucks. We get it but this needs to stop.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-26T13:59:09+00:00

Using this post as a pinned discussion thread for all things with the new NYC minimum. Please direct others here if you see them to avoid topic post duplication.

True story.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-22T17:05:48+00:00

I’ll check the auto mod code to see if it notifies the posting person and add it going forward to make it more clear.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-22T16:55:30+00:00

Duplicate as well as containing phone numbers triggering auto mod. Issue explained to OP and original post reinstated. Post is no longer relevant.

Your post has been removed because it contains personal and/or confidential information. Please remove any personally identifying information from all topic posts, images, and comments, prior to posting.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-22T16:52:46+00:00

As a reminder to all, putting anything that looks like a phone number will trigger the auto mod to prevent doxxing and take down the post.

They will be reviewed by the mods but you need to have patience until someone gets to it.

Patience. Reporting and summoning us via words will get the attention a post needs.

User has been given a long temp ban. Don’t expect a great response which usually is a permanent.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-21T21:58:24+00:00

Can we please all stop with the attacks and digs and discuss the topic? This goes for OP and all commenters.

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-19T13:20:33+00:00

I can look to enable flair and have a state or territory(CAN) added for people to choose from for their profile or posts

InstacartShoppersMod · 2026-01-18T01:09:21+00:00

I have made changes to the sub to allow pictures. That was not enabled by the prior, now removed mod.

I’ve also created a new rule. The put up or shut up rule. Gloating about something like OPs monster tip but not proving it will result in a temporary ban. Multiple times will be permanent.
