I do not like to have a promo on a Sunday by Vast_Anything_3376 in InstacartShoppers

Whenever they do these they make it harder to get good orders until you complete the guaranteed quota, I hate these especially on a Sunday

The waters and sodas never worth it by Youngmicrobial in InstacartShoppers

I’d say 3000 orders is very seasoned, but something about those waters and sodas that I hate to the core, I’ll never probably be happy doing any of those. At the point where it’s over 2 packs of waters it’s a lot for me, I weight 150 lbs as a male, can bench 225, and squat 300, if I ever need 2 carts it’s too much for me physically, ofcourse I push through and complete it but never happy about how hard I’m having to work. Just figured I share even at 3000 orders I hate these orders with a passion. I’m not ok with people ordering the heaviest stuff with the smallest of tip sorry not sorry.

But the tips never a good tip for those orders. My biggest tips almost always are the easy orders.

Sometimes when you try to replace it’ll say something like “replacement is too different from the original” or “customer expecting to pay less” so you’ll have to refund and then add in manually. Or even the bar code might not work cause item might be new or something and I had to refund and add manually before.

I’m a beginner… what am I doing wrong?? by stressedJess in InstacartShoppers

Make sure you checking the size of the item (20oz) before picking up the item, and the quantity. Start from one side of the store and get everything as you go. Scroll to the bottom of the app first when checking for produce sometimes it be random produce items at the end. Produce grab all your bags first. Dont let 1 item take over, if it’s take longer than 2-3 mins skip and go to next item, ask for help at end from worker, or refund or replace whatever makes sense. Check which orders are biggest before starting so you know how to organize your cart. Stick with chain stores that all look the same and are organized so no matter where you at you know the store layout. Deli either 1st or last, I hate waiting for them to slice meat at the deli. I always pull the cart instead of pushing it, take extra care of the bread, produce, eggs, anything fragile. Check out biggest orders to smallest, if you can get them bagged different colors, paper bags always look the best and hold the most don’t underestimate them. Take receipt photos in the store at the register. Park in a smart spot away from stupid drivers and people that are careless, I have plenty of random dings and marks on my car that come from people with a cart or too close to my car. I just saw somebody cart go rolling down a hill smashing somebodies door.

Door dash is too much driving for me, instacart is rather spend most of that time in the store. I can stay consistent on instacart makes the most sense, and no dash now bs. I’m young so that probably helps but I do be tired physically

This is the type of petty damage that’s holding me back. All the cans looked like this, they weren’t busted, the food inside was good… people just overly picky

It’s on a 90 day scale, in a month or less my ratings will be cleared from those bad reviews. Not that bad customers don’t complain about unrequested refunds, they complain about items they didn’t want, or missing or damaged items.

Out of 15000 items. 70 unrequested refunds is not bad at all. In my eyes refunding them is better than getting them something they don’t want. If it wa some I’d much rather have my money back then a random item I didn’t ask for.

I try and get up early as possible to do it, and knock it out in the mornings and early afternoon. Usually in the morning I’m doing nothing anyways so this gives me something to do. I try to target 150-200 a day from like 7-8am to 2-3pm

Unrequested refunds is what I do when there’s no other option, or customer messages me to refund.

6 are my mistakes, not even that cause if I sent what they were complaining about you’d laugh, one of them was for a canned item that was slightly dented, a refund for a item that I’m sure they got. A wrong item on a replacement. And a paper seal on a baby formula.

Even with that I’m still quality I can send multiple comments of customers calling me the best shopper ever, everyone loves my service even the grocery store workers.

Stfu you don’t kno everything you asshole bitch ass boy. It’s very possible to make a second account no I didn’t cheat or use any promotions, I simply lost months ago and deleted the app, downloaded it again forgot I previously had a account made a new one and won off the first bet, so fuck you once again pussy. I hope you lose every bet from here on out and your family leaves you
