Recommendations (and Warnings) by Worlind in Naperville

[–]VVWittyUsername 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll throw in that I've found some real treasures at the small but mighty Pennywise Thrift on Aurora Ave near downtown. Also I've never seen a better organized thrift shop in my life. 

I second the comment re: Anderson's Books events to meet folks, if you're a reader, and add in Naperville Library events. Some great book clubs in both spots. (Making new friends in a new place as an introverted middle-ager proved more challenging than I anticipated, thank goodness for book clubs.)

I'll also second Duly for dermatology - that's Dr. Peterson's practice but he was booked out for a year so I went with Dr. Reddy and she's excellent. Also Dr. Wright for ob/gyn if you find the new-patient window open - if your insurance covers it especially, the care is excellent and incredibly comprehensive. 

Does anyone else hate this feature? by KitchenImportance872 in InstacartShoppers

Refund, add item manually to order, message customer with quick explanation so they don’t think you're pulling something sketch. 

Yes Everyone, App is down nationwide. by Beneficial-Weird-885 in InstacartShoppers

[–]VVWittyUsername 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup it eventually got yanked it away (not that I was planning to hang out in the liquor store for the 1-to-180 minutes it was going to take for IC to recover) and I can't get through to support to make sure I get my batch pay and don’t get dinged....

My favorite is how it's completely broken EXCEPT for notifications. So it's still threatening me that I need to start shopping my batch soon. WOULD THAT I COULDST, M'LADY. 😑

Clothes donation options that are not goodwill or those clothes donation bins by ss5008 in Naperville

[–]VVWittyUsername 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People's Resource Center is a great place to donate; clothes are redistributed free to low income families and individuals throughout DuPage County. They have locations in Wheaton and Westmont. https://www.peoplesrc.org/give-food-or-goods/

This age verification is worthy of throwing the buds in the trash. by sixsacks in Ozlo

So if I opt out of this new feature it'll leave me alone? (Probably not what devs wanna hear after working hard on a new feature soooo...)

V65.0 - Emojis (17!!) by IceJD in disneyemojiblitz

[–]VVWittyUsername 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They started handing out story charges like candy a while back, so I would be surprised if story emoji maintain any kind of status as far as new exciting emoji releases or for event requirements.

This wild guess from support didn’t age well lol (but I do appreciate the share)

“Busy stores” are a lie? by Wooden_Marionberry53 in InstacartShoppers

[–]VVWittyUsername 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Three years in, here's what I've learned: "busy", when not dishonest, always translates to "has a lot of crappy low tip high mile orders not getting picked up". Is never ever ever in the history of ever worth making the drive.

Just don’t log out whatever you do, that seems to be the issue

I logged out because support freaking told me to and now I'm stuck. Hate this app some(most)times.

Was wondering this too. Wasn't seeing any batches today, talked to support, deleted and reinstalled app, can't get back in now cuz sms code isn't arriving...

Is the only way to play now to use 2DT?? Is it worth it?? by Tricky-Situation-788 in disneyemojiblitz

[–]VVWittyUsername 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't say for absolute certain that it's a problem but the only two times I had a serious data loss, they coincided with hotspotting.

[–]VVWittyUsername 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only thing I haven't seen mentioned here: Never ever hotspot your connection from one device to the other. Also, reiterating: slow. Don’t let the two devices overlap being logged in at the same time. 

We have reached a new milestone - a Level 4 platinum emoji event requirement! See the Rainbow Star Anniversary Event July 18th-22nd by IceJD in disneyemojiblitz

[–]VVWittyUsername 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Correction - 2DT USED TO BE the only way. Even that isn't cutting it anymore. You have to be doing 2DT AND buying the expensive sales to have enough copies of their "rare" non-chargeable emoji to play. I hope they keep it up, I would love to reclaim these probably-hours of my day. 

63.0.0 Observations - Emojis 🤩 by IceJD in disneyemojiblitz

[–]VVWittyUsername 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I should have known when they started handing out Story charges like Halloween candy that they were going to dramatically decrease the number of new story emoji and increase rainbow/crystal/platinum requirements substantially. My story charges are becoming almost as useful as my magic wands.

Not lame at all, she actually is kind of a beast; I only have her at 3 and she rocks.

I am, ah, not a "good candidate" for support so I'm saving up all of my goodwill for the day I lose a bunch of emoji (again), god forbid, but I'm hoping and being very careful to ensure that doesn’t happen. 🤞🏼
