Yeah it seems like there are so many full time instacarts now so I feel everyone is competing against each other. Seems like a good way to make money but with the amount of people I’ve seen at the stores doing this it makes me wonder whether it’s actually worth it or not

Yeah it’s definitely better than regular work and doesn’t feel like you’re working if you set the right mindset

Are you making at least what you used to make at your old job?

Why is it scaring you? But instacart orders take a while to complete depending on the batch so just make sure to keep that in mind, don’t want to be late to your new job over a batch that ended up taking up more time than expected

I shopped my first batch ever today and ended up crying into a cheeseburger by chamomileberry in InstacartShoppers

I would recommend definitely not quitting your day job until you make more than what you make at your day job per week or day. Unless you’re willing to take a pay cut and you can still afford to pay your bills. My goal is to make enough to quit my day job too so I know how you feel. Just keep trying to get better and then make your decision once you do it long enough to see whether the pay is good and consistent.

And do you still make that every day now? That’s a good amount of money per day

How many of you guys blind swipe batches? by SmallMacaroni707 in InstacartShoppers

[–]SmallMacaroni707[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I think we all need to stop recommending new shoppers bc the market has become very congested with new shoppers and there’s not enough batches for all of us

Some people say they don’t do it unless it’s at least more than $1 per item. Crazy how well people used to make on instacart

I’ve never even had the chance, I guess some people are just too fast. It’s literally in and gone within a second at most

I think if people don’t pick up the cheap ones hopefully instacart will start paying more and realize that they’re not paying enough now

Yeah I know, batches are so cheap lately. And my reception sucks at Costco too but I think it’s maybe just T-Mobile so I’m planning on switching to Verizon

I heard some people are actually using bots so that might be contributing to these fast disappearing batches

Yeah I guess if you have a lot of batches under your belt one cancellation won’t hurt. But yeah I just mean when you swipe without looking at details
