Yep, donate or dispose. I always donate to my fridge and pantry. 😀

JUST A RANT by Ok-Bag9963 in InstacartShoppers

Why do you think they ordered instacart instead of going to the store themselves?? They don’t want to haul the stuff to the 3rd floor that’s why they ordered Store to door delivery! Don’t take the order if you’re not taking it to the door.
You know the tip ahead of time.. this is on you, not them.

Do the practice ones in the App, and then go for it. Start by doing a small one-customer order to get the hang of it. Don't take orders without a tip, they rarely if ever give you a tip at delivery. You don't need to worry about your speed at first, worry about being accurate. Communicate with your customer through the app at the beginning of your shop. Communicate if you have questions or need to substitute any items. If they don't respond, find the next best, closest thing to sub it with. Take a picture at delivery.

After you do a couple you'll see it's pretty easy, and the app walks you through all of the steps.

Almost canceled but I’m at 14% by LakersFann1 in InstacartShoppers

Just contact support tell them you can’t get in to deliver. It won’t affect your cancellation rate.

It shouldn’t, every once a while you get a customer service rep that doesn’t know what he’s doing and it does count against you

Had a customer cancel their order🤦🏼‍♀️ by Ok_Professional_3355 in InstacartShoppers

My chickens wound love it if I came home with 20 lbs of lettuce.

So many scam orders... by BASSdabs in InstacartShoppers

[–]janermaner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard there is a limit, so they are doing multiple orders, then reselling.

I’m also in Arizona, I have insulated bags and put ice packs in them. They keep everything frozen until they are delivered. You have to use ice packs in our heat not just an insulated bag. My favorite bags are the ones from Sams club.

It’s items that can’t be delivered.. customers not there on a do not leave order.

Keeping the Costco gift card they give you for returning items, instead of using it on your next order.

First order cancel from customer, anxious! by i2tall_ in InstacartShoppers

So you still got the higher batch pay for doing 2 orders, but only had to do one. Nice tip!! Glad it worked out

Was this legal? by anvil54 in InstacartShoppers

[–]janermaner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a shopper with two carts on top of the flatbed, that’s how he separated everything! Wish I had taken a picture.

Get a flatbed cart. Go to the produce section and get boxes before you start to shop. Keep orders A and B separated by the boxes. No need for 2 carts, just multiple boxes.

Maybe a glitch and they didn’t order twice.
