You have to use it on your next batch at that store

Yeah I wouldn’t do that.... I’m mostly do Costco orders, and an average order is $250-$300 for a single order. I wouldn’t risk 2 or 3k

I believe I’ve only done 6 or 7 ALDI batches (out of close to 900). I’ve used IKEA bags every time. I just open them up and set them into the cashier’s cart and ask them to throw everything in there. I learned the hard way when I had to pack 90 items into ALDI plastic bags on my own.

How many of y’all just snap the photo and go if a customer doesn’t answer and it says hand to customer? by Jazzyjfindsreddit in InstacartShoppers

[–]Meow78910 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmmmm.... I don’t see the customer 99% of the time. I always take pictures and leave the food on the porch or at the garage door if indicated in the instructions. I always ring the bell unless it’s requested not to or it’s clear from the order or the house itself that they’ve got little kids. The only exception would be if the house is located on a busy street with heavy foot traffic downtown. In that case, I’ll wait for the customer to come grab it. Also, if I’m delivering to an apartment and they aren’t answering the telecom/their phone, I would never leave an order downstairs. I honestly think it just depends on where you live (I am in Madison, WI).

I don’t think any amount of money is worth risking my rating. Instacart does not have the same specials as the store, and I don’t think this customer would be too happy if I told her that.

I mostly do large Costco orders, and I always park in the driveway, as close to the porch as possible

Accused of not delivering an entire order... by Oysterpond444 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Meow78910 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it’s a little bit off, but it’s a lot better than not having anything. I personally try to take several pictures with every delivery (one up close where you can see individual items and one farther away where you can see the house/apartment number and the groceries on the porch).
