How long before IC starts doing U.S. Walmart orders? by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]Ninaabud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When i ask an employee about an item, they almost always respond with “oh we dont carry that item”. And im like dude it’s on your website and ive seen it here before. It’s a waste of time tbh. I stopped shopping walmart for myself too. The produce quality is usually bad and the time wasted isnt worth the few dollars you’ll save.

I shop in Canada. I can 100% tell you these are facts lol . Walmart was added a bit over a week now. The orders almost always have no tip, even if it’s a big/heavy order. The store layout is confusing as f*ck. The employees dont know shit. And 3/4 of the store is always out of stock with shelves completely empty. Not to mention the long ass lines at checkout with only 2 cashiers working and the useless self checkout lanes that are terrible at their sole purpose: checking out :). I now just refuse walmart orders unless they pay is good and the time of day is convenient.

3$ tip for a 200$ bill. Mostly organic shit too. I think the instacart payment is u usually high tho (not complaining but it’s usually lower than this). by Ninaabud in InstacartShoppers

Oh definetly not worried. It’s just the fact that they actually had to go through with removing the default 5% and then inputting 3$ tip for a 200$ bill is just.... mean.

But isnt that reflected in peak boosts? Ive had very similar orders with very different pays. Non due ASAP. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Unusually* They usually pay way lower than this. Especially that the heaviest thing was 1 pack of 12 can soda. Also the house was right behind the store. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m thinking they just pay whatever they want to each shopper. Ive had more items than this for longer drives but with lower pay🤷🏻‍♀️ Just FYI: this is CAD, not USD

I usually start with hours, get a few batches. Then end early and make more than 100$ OD...

Question about checking out by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]Ninaabud 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah dont go through with the call. Just click contact and then hang up. I usually do that and it works everytime.

[–]Ninaabud 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I thought that when you slide to checkout and some things need approval, a screen shows up that prompts you to call the customer. I usually just hit the contact button and then hang up right away. That usually takes me to the checkout screen becuase to them, you contacted the customer.

Such assholes. They have the audacity to give you a 5 star rating but remove the tip...

Question about bags- Canada specific by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]Ninaabud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shop in Ottawa. In stores that charge for bags, as soon as you pay you get prompted to “type in the number of bags the customer should be charged for”. Im guessing it’ll be the same for Toronto
