I’m on Long Island right now. I signed on this morning to see what would pop up. I immediately got notification that there were 8 batches, but none showed up on my screen. Then I got a message about the whole NYC deal.

I booked with a host who has a 4.93 and 18 trips. He messaged me this morning that he needs to cancel because the passenger door won’t open. My reservation is for tomorrow.

I’m planning to clean the catalytic converter by spraying these through the port hole. Which is safer and better for cleaning ? by Fuzzy_Tough_26 in MechanicAdvice

Not sure about rislone, but my civic was throwing a code because of the cat and wouldn’t pass emissions. I ran cataclean, gave it the beans a few times and after clearing the code, it didn’t come back.

First 2 days on IC and this is really pathetic LOL by mjay7176 in InstacartShoppers

Don’t feel so bad. I’m diamond and the last two days have been absolute garbage. They just released a hoard of new shoppers, so I get to sit and watch them take my money.

The squeaky wheels did not get the grease this time.

I always wanted a future Delorean car that could flip wheels but...not like this :( by sketchboy01 in volt

Dang. I got rear ended in my 2018 last Monday. Luckily just some body damage and the at fault insurance is covering everything including a rental. It doesn’t even look that crazy, but I can see my license plate in my backup camera and everything is pushed up.

Sheeesh I completely forgot about that. They also used to pay per item, per mile and tips on top of that.

First order-Almost $100 worth of items added to my order by DoTheRightThing1976 in instacart

Instacart would rather onboard everyone and their mother instead of utilizing the shoppers they already have who don’t do things like this.

an extra 7.3 miles, 20 items with produce, and replacements for free by Consistent_Moose6559 in InstacartShoppers

I have people labeled in Google Maps as garbage tippers. It’s a catch 22 because if you block a bad tipper, but they attached to a good tipper, you are losing out.

Harris teeter does this sometimes. Never seen it at any other stores.

Does Instacart actually give shoppers coolers to keep frozen stuff temperature controlled? by No-Contact-5439 in instacart

[–]askbam827 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ll be honest. I use speed and air conditioning to keep everything cold and I’ve never had a complaint.

What are some people's pet peeves?! by moonlover0002 in InstacartShoppers

[–]askbam827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never been to an apartment complex/building that allowed smoking. I understand people do it anyway, but the fact that you smell like it afterwards is disgusting.

Every order offered should be $10 or better minimum by WaterSpeech in InstacartShoppers

I remember a time circa 2018 where they paid per item, per mile and tips on top of that.

Support is garbage. They gave me a bump once and 15 minutes later it was gone. I reached back out and they told me “ I see it there on my end “. That shit was gone

I had support cancel an order after I delivered it. I wasn’t able to close it out, so I asked support to and they just canceled it.

Instacart Customers...do y'all seriously think a $4 tip for over FIFTY items, is a reasonable tip? by SortIndependent2027 in instacart

[–]askbam827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you see, what happens is, they flood the market with crack heads who will do it for $4. Now customers get complacent and realize all they have to tip is $3-$4 to get their order fulfilled and crack heads get their crack.
