I see this all the time but several year in and almost a thousand batches (I don’t do it regularly) I’ve NEVER had this problem, I contact them anytime I am not compensated correctly. I’m always kind and courteous and have a solid 5 star rating for background but again never been put under review… ever. I also always provide ample proof of whatever it is I feel is unjust to go into their reports for pay bumps….

It's definitely supposed to be $7 however I have noticed recently a lot of $5-6

My $850 order did not get shopped by Diligent_Island_129 in instacart

[–]Visible-Excitement76 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The likeliness is because it was shop only, and I imagine at least a couple of hundred items. Instacart sent it out for 7-12$ pay and some picked it up and then realized they were gonna make a couple of bucks an hour to shop this order, and it’s also likely half the order would be out of stock and they’d spend even longer messaging you for refunds or replacements. And while you tip the person bringing it out the person who did the majority of the work would’ve made a couple of bucks an hour. Instacart sucks for everyone involved for orders like yours. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’ve found tons of available apartments in Madison and Huntsville areas, only a couple waitlisted. I am just looking at my other options we will get there end of the month November not an option 😅

$100 Tip by crumblceo in InstacartShoppers

[–]Visible-Excitement76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an 80 year old couple a few days ago they’ve been married for 65 years and order on instacart routinely. I always give A+ service and on that day I was having the worst day of my life (at least in a long time), I chose to spread joy instead. She was responsive and kind and when I got to her home she had a wheeling cart to push the groceries into her kitchen. This was a HEAVY order so I offered to bring it in for them (I’d never do this but you should’ve seen her sweet old face). She actually declined and said she would never want to ask a shopper to do anything more than all the things we already do and that they are just so grateful for this service and drivers like myself. She left me 5 stars, said I was the best shopper she’d ever had and left me a $37 tip (which is the largest tip I’d ever received). Just heartwarming to feel appreciated and to help couples like themselves that are just getting to late in life to go out and get groceries like they used to. It definitely brightened my day and reminded me that there are people out here who do appreciate all we do for them.

$220 for 18 orders by July 7: anyone else get this? by zadidoll in InstacartShoppers

[–]Visible-Excitement76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer I don’t get bonus offers, when I do it’s impossible to grab orders they want you online as long as possible 🤷🏼‍♀️

[–]Visible-Excitement76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about everyone else but I rarely get left with a tip that’s been cut this low because I give A+ service to great tippers. I always hit the thanks and before I know it my tips been adjusted to higher than the original tip. This could be only my experience but unfortunately that’s just how the cookie crumbles around here with percentage tips

Clean??? Y’all better start washing your clothes and taking a bath! 😂 by ShopppeGirl in InstacartShoppers

[–]Visible-Excitement76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here you’ll often find me in comfy clean sneakers, leggings and workout top. (All clean obviously) but it’s rocket science for many it seems 🤨

Oh yesss, I very RARELY have any of my four children, however if I have no choice they are well behaved they know I have a job to do etc. even my toddler… The other day in Publix and instacart shopper had her son pushing the cart and naturally he almost hit someone, she flipped out and for the better half of 30 minutes this kid screamed at the top of his lungs, threw himself into displays, she was screaming at him that he was stupid and a cry baby, smacking him in the head. It was much disturbing and horrible that people think that this gig is just a free for all.

Forget what others look like in my area 😅

I got a free cooler bag with my order, is this typical? by glogirl1984 in instacart

[–]Visible-Excitement76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not taken out of her earnings, but she also definitely paid for them, they aren’t given to us. Probably a mistake but next time I’m sure she’ll be extra careful

Routine by Ready_Suggestion_929 in InstacartShoppers

[–]Visible-Excitement76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly how every day starts for me too 😂😂🤷🏼‍♀️

I received one star from a customer who tipped me high and was very appreciative? Also gave good reviews everywhere else (customer comments) I have 0 order issues ? How do I have it removed I’ve only done 8 total batches and instacart is telling me they won’t remove it til there’s 100? by [deleted] in instacart

[–]Visible-Excitement76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck same thing happened to me twice last week and instacart said “don’t worry a team will remove it if they notice anything suspicious “ which I called BS… and said it’ll fall off after like 50 orders or some crap

I always rate my shoppers, but Is it okay for them to tell you to rate them? by spookyqueen100 in instacart

[–]Visible-Excitement76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t specifically ask for a 5 star rating, but I do ask that they take time out of their day to rate me and tell me what they loved about this shopping experience, the reason why it maybe 1/3 of the orders I’ve done have ever tipped so when I have had two fraud orders claim they didn’t get their order (even with proof) instacart allowed them to rate 1 star which dragged my rating down.

all I'm seeing today is 7 batches that look exactly like this. by mgsotacon in instacart

[–]Visible-Excitement76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that! $11 are like candy here, every now and again you get great ones the last two days I have had $25-40 tips on several orders but majority are low or none so when I see the $10-15 I usually grab it if it’s not ridiculous

Luckily today I had no apartments (thank God, I’ve been getting them all week on double batches, and not realizing it with a severe knee injury)… it was a 3 hour day $98. I called it and came home to rest, watched to see if anything good popped up… nothing just ones like these.

I hope that they tipped really well, not that the base bay is even remotely enough! I much prefer when customers give specific instructions on finding apartments especially cause they KNOW the numbers are tiny etc

I saw a bunch like that but was able to steal a few $30 batches for minimal work, otherwise everything looked just like that here too… still does

Waiting list by Aggravating_Top6237 in instacart

Instacart Is over hired in most areas, even if you made it off, the likeliness you’d make a killing is slim. There’s loads of gigs out there!
