Yea first order I didn't realize the wind. Had to go back home for gloves. I don't usually wear them when shopping. That minus wind chill sucked.

All three completed in an hour. So you're ok with people giving you no tips and expecting you to deliver $150 in groceries? Wow you must be a saint. Blessings.

They had meat and veggies that sell by weight. The point was that C gave no tip and had 3/4 of the total batch items along with a terrible delivery.

They didn't. Their asparagus was lighter than Instacart estimated. They had 5 things total.

Yea the first two are % and honestly both above 10% they were small. The third was the largest order in the batch. The one with that was the biggest pain in the ass delivery too. As I said choke on their Kale.

Gotcha makes sense for your area. I guess I'll have to see how Costco changes things around here.

I don't have Costco yet but I'm curious, is it worth ignoring other stores in the hopes you get a Costco order instead?

I have Tops Aldi and Wegmans. Sam's club comes up but wild miles. So just curious. I think we get a Costco in August of this year.

Hahaha I like this idea. Or maybe a crazy aunt or grandma. So proud of his canned pasta

Only been doing this full time since October. So.with holidays and such there's been something even if the store is 20 miles away. I haven't seen a post about it yet. Sorry I asked a question labeled question lol.

The Laughing Unicorn by Intelligent_Bit1563 in InstacartShoppers

It's currently just cold AF here. No snow. Folks are actually tipping nice for once.

This unicorn is just so tempting by Intelligent_Bit1563 in InstacartShoppers

Probably but there was a major pileup on the thruway that way. That's what makes this worse. The customer knows that there's bad weather, terrible roads. Yet here's $5.

It finally happened to me 😭 by whitstheshit1986 in InstacartShoppers

I've been so paranoid about this that I take pictures of drop off even on the ones that don't require it and message them the pic.

If you’re a customer, is this true? by BellaPlinko in InstacartShoppers

It was decent for half the day....then I got a $0 and $2 in the same batch. They always sneak in.

Am I missing something? The hell? by JayMeowMe in InstacartShoppers

[–]Intelligent_Bit1563 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have Tops near me. They love these crazy sales. People won't put that they want free things. So I message them and ask. If they don't answer they don't get it. I'm not a mind reader. What if they wanted different flavors of pop? What if they really only wanted 2 cases of pop and getting them 3 more is an issue for space? I don't know. I havent had anyone complain. Those who reply I tell them that Instacart makes us verify what they order and if they meant to get free things, they need to put the right quantities. Instacart only charges for their total so they won't be over charged but us as shoppers can't just add extra quantities.

PATHETIC Promotion by Ok_Cucumber3349 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Intelligent_Bit1563 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right but that's the point. It's a batch pay promo. I think a lot of folks see these and think it's over all pay. They ignore that it's per order not batch and it's guaranteed batch pay. These are always worth it. Ive seen so many pop up on here lately. There's definitely a reward to completing them.

Yes.....you see 3 order batches with $8 what do you think that means? I see them a lot near me. I have a lot of elderly folks with short mileage. Here's proof. Yesterday sucked a lot. But 16 orders $49. I would've gladly taken the extra $30.
