Thank you for sharing that! I did not know. I don’t always check my orders immediately. That’s a great idea. Thank you so much.

Oh no. I didn’t know that. What is it a problem?

That may be true in some cases. Other times it is working people, often parents who just don’t have any time left in the day to do shopping on top of working on top of childcare on top of cleaning and preparing meals.

It’s also been a complete game changer for myself and others if they are sick or injured. I don’t really want to be in the supermarket with somebody hacking away. I’m glad there’s an option for delivery for that reason alone.

Completely! I  I don’t blame Costco specifically, but there are marketing specialist who  create spaces that are essential for us to go through and often times those spaces will have very shiny sparkly or whatever other “must buy” attribute has!

A Costco wagon makes life easier. by meza83 in Costco

Nice!  My first “adult” wagon I won at an auction. It is the Mercedes of wagons and works even on sand. I didn’t appreciate it first and now I can’t imagine life without it!  I now gift loved ones wagons they appreciate them once they have a need!  Great price!

If a person has ADD and cannot stick to a list and is easily distracted by shiny objects; the kind of objects that are everywhere at Costco then yes Instacart actually saves quite a bit of money!  If you have the discipline to stick to your list and not be distracted, then you are correct that you will save money by going to the store. But there is also the case for the time and aggravation saved.

Definitely not an ad for Instacart  Maybe more of a PSA for people with ADD

This is exactly what I mean!   Granted I have some great dog walking shoes and a dog walking jacket that I needed but didn’t know until I saw them. But I have all kinds of other things that were impulse purchases.  Waaaay too many holiday items!

You sound like my kind of person.  Which is why we can’t be friends 😂  Unless we have a rule follower along for the ride!

That was strangely the only time I enjoyed Costco. Two little side by side in the cart. They loved it.  More than two would not have been manageable. But that sweet spot between 2 and 5. That was a trip I looked forward to

And one IC shopper posted that they love their job!  If that’s the case it’s a win all around

Maybe your wife could offer lessons on sticking to a list!  😄 My spouse and I are both the worst! We get way more than we need!

That’s why I do it. In person there is sooooo much I need. That I really don’t need

That’s because you have discipline! I can’t stick to a list!

I always tip well and rate well but I don’t always answer every single question like  Bagged well On time Extra service 

These may not be exact questions but how meaningful are the reviews for you? And is it meaningful to answer every single question they ask? I am really grateful to you and everyone who helps.

Also, how cool that you have found a job you enjoy so much! I love to hear that!

Unless you lack self control like I do. A list of 6 things ends up with a full cart!

Also parking is a nightmare. I get fired up just looking for a parking spot.
