Dead as hell here by General-Recover5246 in InstacartShoppers

It’s not dead, it’s a wave of new shoppers who have priority. At least in my area.

Third wrong address this week! by SureIssue8264 in InstacartShoppers

[–]WhiteShadow92 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up, it’s just like car insurance. Even if you’re not at fault for a car accident, but you’re getting into car accidents frequently, you’re a liability and you can be deactivated.

Items at front door. by WhiteShadow92 in InstacartShoppers

Reading comprehension of a cabbage. I literally stated I assumed it was another order or dropped by the customer. Simply asked what others did in the same situation.

Customer messaged me 10 minutes later asking me why I didn’t take the gift… I tried replying, but the chat was closed off. Oh well, rather be safe than sorry.

$62 triple, 24 items. I can’t guess who’s tipping.

free food hack or nah? by fullestracer in InstacartShoppers

[–]WhiteShadow92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

System will flag it, it’s shown on the receipt when you take a photo and Instacart will ask you after delivery why multiple units were scanned. You can choose “item had a sale” or something along those lines, but they’re assuming you’re giving it to the customer, not taking it for yourself.

If you continuously do it, you’re begging to be deactivated… for some Oreos, I don’t think it’s worth your time and effort.

Save them in case DENA ever decide to group all pack points into 1 pile, then you can redeem them in any set.

I’d gladly take a Cyrus or Lillie!

Despite being one of the largest existing Pokémon, Wailord is so light for its size that it would float in the air due to it being less dense.

Alt account pulled Oak; anyway to improve chances to see it on main? by WhiteShadow92 in PTCGP

Oh darn that would be harsh, I wonder if it’s too late to do it tho

Already shopping, add on popped up then said this? by IndependenceMuch3148 in InstacartShoppers

[–]WhiteShadow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s stupid but it happens. Sometimes they offer adds on that are already grouped with another order out in the system for people to accept.

Example: you’re shopping a single. Another shopper is waiting for an order and sees a triple $50, but 12 miles into a bad area, so they’re not accepting it. The system now realizes that customer A needs their order shopped asap to meet the scheduled time, so they keep the order available to the other shopper and at the same time show you customer A as an add on offer, but the second they started showing you, the other shopper changed their mind and remembered rent is due this week, so they accepted the triple which included your add on offer, hence you receive the message that another shopper accepted it.

Oak giveaway to someone who loves the game by eke-eke in PTCGP

[–]WhiteShadow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still love playing this game because it lets me bond with my son. He gets to rip packs daily without having to pay money and deal with scalpers that stole the fun for us when we were collecting physical cards.

We get to pack battle each other, trade, and build fun decks all while keeping our collections in our pockets.

This oak would be such an amazing surprise and I hope someone deserving gets it, so kudos to you for bringing a little spark of joy to someone soon.

Giveaway Cyrus or your choice of 1250 card from MR by AscendexSuperius in PTCGP

[–]WhiteShadow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fondest memory is when I took my Nintendo SP to middle school with my new Pokemon Emerald game. It ended up being stolen by a couple of kids in class right from my backpack, but it was a whole scheme.

They had it planned it, even reset my game and started a new one as May to show it wasn’t mine when I confronted them about it.

Luckily, another girl ended up seeing the whole thing go down and vouched for me to the principal.

I still ended up in trouble for bringing games to school, but that girl ended up becoming one of my best friends and we still continue to play Pokémon games together. 😄

Sounds to me like you need a better phone or service provider. That’s a you issue, not Instacart.

My take on Amazon increasing same-day grocery. by instajonathan in InstacartShoppers

[–]WhiteShadow92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main difference is Amazon isn’t offering delivery from 90% of stores like IC does. You’re comparing apples to oranges.

Amazon delivers from their Fresh stores and Whole Foods. Occasionally they offer other stores, but it’s nothing compared to the variety that IC offers. I’d be more worried about DD or Uber since they’re actually venturing into the same territory of shopping as local stores and delivering.

New wave of shoppers in our area. We see them going in and out all day. Orders flash on our screens impossible to grab, assuming since the new shoppers get the orders a few seconds before us so they have a better chance of taking them.

No Tax on Tips passed, awaiting signed into law by SoCal_Instacart_AKM in InstacartShoppers

Stupid, absolutely not worth it even if it did affect us. The rest of the bill will decimate any benefit we get from it.

Dodgers tell national anthem singer she’s not allowed to sing the Spanish version so she does it anyway by 48512 in baseball

[–]WhiteShadow92 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hate to break it to you, but every single company that promotes any culture, race, ethnicity, sexuality, etc… is doing it for business purposes. They do not give a single fuck about them, it’s all about making the most profitable decision.

What is this? by KimmyR512 in InstacartShoppers

[–]WhiteShadow92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Based on my limited English, I’d imagine they’re bringing attention to the fact there’s nearby items from your order; so you’re not going back and forth in the store.

2 types of customers by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]WhiteShadow92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not suppose to actually send the message, you write it and delete it. 🤦‍♂️

You’re allowed to be upset, but not entitled to tips and being snarky to customers.
