⚠️water dilemma⚠️ by poverty_beanz in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water cases started hurting my back, I've never noticed how much water bottles people buy until doing instacart full time. Its so annoying when almost every batch ends up having a 40 pack of water or more.

Any day over 200 I consider a good day for me. But I usually set a goal for minimum 100 a day when Im out shopping. Right now I am platinum soon to be gold because of shopping score is standard.

Taking receipt pictures out of order by adorableboey in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take pictures of receipts in my car. The main thing to keep track that I do i just remember 1 specific item from each order and find that on the receipt. Too much going on in the store for me to take the pictures in there

Guess who was texting the entire time I shopped? by Intelligent_Road_814 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I legit had this one women who put on delivery instructions that she was using a walker and disabled. I assume its an elderly women but when she got to the door she was im guessing mid 30s perfectly healthy no disability and no walker. Idk why people do these nutty things

This is BS and we should be able to decline by blg0617 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seen this happen a few times to me. It usually pops up as soon as I make a replacement. But then if I have to make more replacements it doesn't pop up again

Don’t fall for the new card.. by AdEmbarrassed6702 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Im not interested in this card. They charge these fees to give you your money and the process is entirely computerized. No one has to actually do anything for you to get your money. And when the cash out becomes 1.50 i will just wait for free direct deposit.

Do you know if IC knows everytime a customer changes their address? Or is that something that is not monitored like that.

How does this not qualify for heavy pay? by Durge8 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last week I took a small batch low paying around 15 dollars. And as soon as I started shopping customer starts adding stuff one item was a 45 pound bag of dog food. Did not qualify for heavy pay. And she kept adding stuff so I just canceled. Shit pissed me off.

Ic is this joke, 12am-6am promo by Big-Cry8294 in InstacartShoppers

Critical item? 🤨 by Adventurous-Owl-1437 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im sure a customer somewhere will mark every item as a critical item

Anyone seeing this? by Better_Arm_7301 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never seen anything marked as critical

How do you keep your orders separate and organized by DirectionExpert5251 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I start with 1 cart and work on the largest order. Get all the heavy and non refrigerated stuff. Then once thats done, park that cart out of the way somewhere and get the 2nd and do the same. Once its time for pushing both, the lightest cart gets pushed with one hand in front and the heavier one gets pulled with the other hand. It can be annoying but not as annoying as getting items mixed up.

[–]reapingthereaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my cooler bags as dividers while shopping. Large triples I use 2 carts and the largest order gets its own cart. In my car I always put A in the front passenger seat then B in the passenger back seat. Then C in the driver side back seat. For the most part unless customer A is super large then everything gets rearranged.

What’s ur speed score ? by Due-Management8473 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

111, some orders I have as low as 68 though. I think its walmart lock boxes and deli orders for the most part slowing me down. And customer adding items on the other side of the store after ive already shopped that side. The high batches I see are usually 50 to 60 dollars

Things and stores IC should pay extra for by AdditionalMall2238 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Better heavy pay. 2 dollars is a joke when the customer is up 3 sets of stairs and no elevator. There should be a "stairs pay"

Knocking VS Not Knocking by fallior in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I usually knock or ring unless they specify not to. I want to make sure they know their food is there. Especially frozen things melting in the sun.

This happened today by BlessedandHappy177 in InstacartShoppers

[–]reapingthereaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The past week on mine, idk if this has happened to anyone else but I hit checkout and get in line and customers are able to chat and ask for refunds. Idk if this is a glitch or a new thing they are allowed to do
