I think im the only one who got this right?

I wasn’t in app and I still snagged it. Got back to Costco and had to cancel a 85 because it had 80 items. Hope everyone’s having a great day

I'll give you three guesses why! 😂🙃 I told them it was late because their order was part of a triple. Later, when I saw that there was no tip, I sent a message that explained their order -might- have been waiting on the app for a long time before I picked it up. I was trying to be nice and protect my ratings. Should I have told them it was late because they didn't tip?

Is it just me or after the app crash orders have been either terrible or barely any popping up?! Like do we have to be diamond to get all the orders coming in?!

There has to be orders coming in & im just assuming diamond cart is getting all them ... usually Friday's are busy and I'm confused what's going on🙃. (LA / OC

Maybe it’s a blessing🤑 in disguise🥸

I’m having a panic attack just looking at it

Had an ok Friday. I've never gotten 2 comments on the same day though. Too bad they don't help you get more batches.

Hope you all have a lucrative weekend! 🙌🏻

I was so surprised by this! Totally made my day. 😁

Maybe it’s just down right now, but how can they just not let you go online.

I was tempted but couldn’t do it 🤣🤣

The last 3 orders today. I’m in the app the entire time yet a notification pops but nothing shows on my screen.

Customer submitted a complaint for damaged items, the eggs were cracked. Which yes I understand, but the eggs were in a sealed box and there was no way to verify the damage. They were not leaking out of the box. Now my shopper quality takes the hit for something out of my control.

Now first off, yes, I should’ve caught the relatively low combined tip before accepting. It’s been a slow Friday so I took a larger Costco batch that I wouldn’t normally do, because it was over $30 and every other offer today was either crap or long distance.

This was $500+ of goods, and looking at the tips, can you guess which one went to the $342 order? Yep, you already know. Honestly would’ve been less insulting if they didn’t tip at all.

They have enough money to buy a $37 eye round roast, but apparently not enough for a tip to cram your multiple boxes of crap in my trunk. Oh, and at least 5-6 of those items were added during the shop too.

And to add insult to injury, my local Costco is apparently now forcing “small items” on Instacart orders to be unloaded onto the belt, then reorganized and packed again. Finding new ways to make previously-simple batches more time-consuming, and less worth the aggravation that comes with dealing with Costco crowds and layout changes.

So lesson learned. No matter how much they try to make you settle for crap, don’t. Know your worth, don’t compromise.
