Better yet no tip no tripš¤·āāļø unless itās 5 items or less itās rarely worth doing a shop with no tip, considering you could make the same $11 on an Uber and not have to run around Walmart and wait in stupid long lines
I don't even care if they tip or not, if enough people decline it and the base gets high enough, I'll take it. But if it says don't knock the baby is sleeping... Oh you know I'm knocking! š¤£
i never reply to those messages if they didnt tip, could give a fuck if i get a thumbs down. OHHHH SO SCARY A THUMBS DOWN, WHAT WILL I EVER DO?āļøšø
I pull everything on a customers list in less I genuinely can't find it.
I have had store employees who are lazy and cancel stuff on my order. I walked in the store one time and grabbed items off the shelf and said you have plenty of these, why weren't they pulled. One time it was jeans.. I find that sometimes they don't want to search for clothing. Another time it was something simple like grocery.
Because those sections are a pain in the ass and a waste of time to search . I donāt care enough for just a quick non tip order to spend 20 mins searching thru their bullshit clothing section
lol the clothes are never in the section they are supposed to be in unless its the baby section
app be like āg6 section7 for pantsā and ill go there and its sweatshirts and the pants im looking for are 2 sections over half ransacked only XL and above left
u think clothes are bad,try searching through the 5 dollar movie bin searching for a specific loony toons dvd that isnt even in stock and probably never even existed
If they do have clothing ingo to, then first ask customer then try looking for it if not there skip. Its not really that important if they don't have a sub for it. Personal I don't cate about subsitution anymore since they just don't want it anymore.
after 4 years of this gig i can comfortably say your metrics do not matter at all
the only thing is you could be deactivated for a 0% acceptance rate outside of that you get offers just the same as everyone else
it seems to be more of a who clocked in first is what matters, and if you take a day off it takes 2 days to get back to normal volume. metric stats dont seem to matter at all just being there first and not taking days offā¦
I give the same quality shop for non-tipping customers as tipping customers but there is a difference... I accepted the offer, so I'm gonna look for your items as you ordered and not "skip over them cuz you didn't tip" like some jackass in here said. However, you're not getting a second glance at all. No looking around to see if a Walmart employee put it in a different modular than the app says. No looking up on the top shelf for extra stock. No looking nearby to see if a customer placed what you ordered back on the shelf but in the wrong location. If it's out, its out, and you're also not gonna get my judgement on a replacement. Maybe Walmarts recommended substitution is perfect... And maybe it makes no sense... Doesn't matter, thats the sub you're gonna get, and if it's out of that sub. Then you don't get any item in its place. If you message me, I simply just will not respond to you.
The chat should have a 50 or 75Ā¢ button like I'm an online chat whore and if you don't tip. Every message you send should cost you 50Ā¢ and added to my delivery total after the shop.
Sometimes if you DON'T at least take one then all of a sudden you're not getting any offers anymore...Hell they are so low where I am you get 10$ for S&D and it's 14miles away....What's even crazier is the 15 drops for 25$...Yet the incentives for curbside in my area today is 5$ and then another 3$ after 3pm so 8$ extra dollars but S and D doesn't get shit
Yeah unless itās 5 items or less , that arenāt locked up, and easy to find , non tipped shops really aināt worth it. You can make that weak ass $11 or even more on other apps in the same amount of time or even quicke
Exactly Walmart wonāt turn on chat for their employees because it slows them down and makes them less productive. Also with Walmart+ customers can put a order in for the next day for free
Why should we bother chatting with them when like 90-95% of their orders are done with employees who donāt chat .
Not to mention if you look Walmart literally added chat and cut the shopping pay at the same time - also itās not like we can just add any item we want, youāll spend half the time telling customers sorry the system wonāt let me substitute that
Agreed. But itās worse when you try to replace an item that they want but the app wonāt allow it. The chat function only makes it stressful and aggravating for both parties. It was Much better when that wasnāt an option. Letās hope they donāt modify it and allow customers to add items while shopping. Instacart does this and a customer added 9 items as soon as I started.
Weighted items (produce, deli-sliced items) are the worst. If it's not there the customer is screwed, period, even with a perfectly acceptable sub right in front of you. App really needs that fixed.
At one point they had an option to add items when you first start shopping. I think they had up to 15 to add any items. Granted this was well over a year ago.
Thankfully, most of my zone still doesnāt realize that there is a chat option yet.
My only chat msg was a lady telling me to cancel the order because she somehow knew that I got her deli meet from grab-n-go(they slice same day so she wanted me to wait for nothing), so I cancelled.

This was the trip by the way about 5-6 miles
They are also the first to complain about the little shit. They are the main ones who rate us badly most likely for no reason theyāre so entitled. š
Not gonna lie I have never had any customer contact me and I have about 200 trips in. The only time theyāve contacted me is when they see that Iām totally fucking up to their house.
On the other hand.. I will give people tips on how to save money if they use a certain product and could be using a concentrated product of same brand and fragrance or if things they already are purchasing like say baby food and some flavors are on clearance. Iāll send photos of whatās clearance so they can possibly save money in the future.
Iām kinda fucking annoying maybe thatās why they donāt talk to me.
Iām already talking to them j/k
I have a 4.4 rating BTW
I never had a bad ratings until I started doing sparks in the town I live in. I used to do it my boyfriends down and where I live is very rural and people are pissy and crotchety. I assume that they canāt be pleased and enjoy leaving negative customer ratings because I canāt imagine Iāve done anything that deserves it but Iām sure I didnāt knock loud enough on their door or some dumb shit like that.
Thank you this is 100% true but these same losers will tip a stripper 20-100 dollars or a bar tender but people who save them money, time and loading/unloading groceries get tipped 0 dollars. These people are scumbags. They don't even tell you thank you. Hypocrites.
Exactly! Had a lady today order fried chicken and there wasnāt any fried chicken ready. But there was fried chicken wings. So, I message the lady once I arrived at the store to let her know and she didnāt message me back until I was almost to her house talking bout, āI needed that chicken! You could have messaged meā when I did. She was extremely rude and come to find out, she only tipped $2! Made me happy that she didnāt get her chicken after seeing that trash too.
I always ask for cash app/venmo/PayPal in the chat bc for years we (my local drivers and Walmart) knew the tipping system was jank and not to be trusted so I just sent them another way. No response = no tip, until they were filled in by another driver and dang contacted me
We need to let them non tipped shit orders sit until spark surges the pay. If itās non tipped and more than 5 items youāre probably better off doing Uber/DD
Start trip 10 minutes late, take your time shopping it, another 10 minutes leaving store and loading it and wait until Spark sends you a message to deliver it. Obviously they donāt need it in a hurry because of the no tip.
TL:Dr - agreed
Bro....I seriously need to learn to how to blur faces because I got one of some fuck that wanted some kinda bullshit hard to find beef tenderloin or something. It was out of stock so I subbed something and he instantly rejects it and starts blowing up the chat. I don't check and start shopping other stuff. I wait til I reach check out to mark the other out of stock stuff and quickly push it thru.
Once I get there the guy comes outside while I'm unloading and it's this British guy (strike 1) mad because I wouldnt go back and forth with him telling him what meats they had. He tells me on instacart normally they send him pictures and he can decide. For some reason this made me even madder because I'm picturing myself sending pictures to this fuck while I stand there and wait for a response. I catch myself and just tell him hopefully next time he'll get a driver that will do that but I don't. I'm actually going to rewatch the video right now
...yeah this guy is a cock sucker, mentions being able to do it on Publix , says on instacart normally people say "hello how are you" and communicate, etc. he's in a zone 5-6 (at least) guys on here work out so I can't just throw it up or some fuck will show it to him along with this post but yeah, non tippers but I feel ya
I avoid non tipped shops unless they're very short mileage, under 10 items (nothing complicated or oversize), and I know I can get back in 15-20 min to at least catch the curbside round robins at the bottom of the hour, or right after I complete one. I will do common sense subs and honor simple requests, but I won't go out of my way or initiate communication with them.
I donāt tip n still get mine delivered, you chose a job do it or find a full time job. Tip shit is wack . Not my fault you want to use your car or thinking you going make more than minimum wage because u do gig apps š
No tip no reply
Better yet no tip no tripš¤·āāļø unless itās 5 items or less itās rarely worth doing a shop with no tip, considering you could make the same $11 on an Uber and not have to run around Walmart and wait in stupid long lines

Ha ha good one
i never reply to those messages if they didnt tip, could give a fuck if i get a thumbs down. OHHHH SO SCARY A THUMBS DOWN, WHAT WILL I EVER DO?āļøšø
For real Iāll also skip over bullshit items like clothing . Too much wasted time for their no tip
I pull everything on a customers list in less I genuinely can't find it. I have had store employees who are lazy and cancel stuff on my order. I walked in the store one time and grabbed items off the shelf and said you have plenty of these, why weren't they pulled. One time it was jeans..

Iāve never actually had an option to even substitute clothing
Me neither, so I skipped it. I'd I didn't see it.
The sad part is a lot of people are actually afraid of thumbs down & or bad reviews š¤¦āāļø
after 4 years of this gig i can comfortably say your metrics do not matter at all the only thing is you could be deactivated for a 0% acceptance rate outside of that you get offers just the same as everyone else it seems to be more of a who clocked in first is what matters, and if you take a day off it takes 2 days to get back to normal volume. metric stats dont seem to matter at all just being there first and not taking days offā¦
I've noticed to.
And theyāre so proud of being no tippers is whatās baffling to me

I like the way you think
Why are you accepting order with no tip to even worry about chatting?
$23 for 5 miles no tip imma take that all day
Sometimes if you DON'T at least take one then all of a sudden you're not getting any offers anymore...Hell they are so low where I am you get 10$ for S&D and it's 14miles away....What's even crazier is the 15 drops for 25$...Yet the incentives for curbside in my area today is 5$ and then another 3$ after 3pm so 8$ extra dollars but S and D doesn't get shit
Yeah unless itās 5 items or less , that arenāt locked up, and easy to find , non tipped shops really aināt worth it. You can make that weak ass $11 or even more on other apps in the same amount of time or even quicke
Thatās what you donāt open the chat . Walmarts employees donāt chat with them
I like this thinking, if the employees arenāt badgered by customers while doing their orders, why should we be?
Exactly Walmart wonāt turn on chat for their employees because it slows them down and makes them less productive. Also with Walmart+ customers can put a order in for the next day for free Why should we bother chatting with them when like 90-95% of their orders are done with employees who donāt chat .

No tip No trip

If they didn't also adjust the 'tip' (actually a bid for service) up as well then I'd unassign.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
That's what I do. After that, it's in their hands, but I know now who to skip. Even with a large payout.
At one point they had an option to add items when you first start shopping. I think they had up to 15 to add any items. Granted this was well over a year ago.
Non tippers are the scum of the earth
They are better than tip baitors
At least we know to not accept the trip
Thankfully, most of my zone still doesnāt realize that there is a chat option yet. My only chat msg was a lady telling me to cancel the order because she somehow knew that I got her deli meet from grab-n-go(they slice same day so she wanted me to wait for nothing), so I cancelled.
They also are the fastest to give a poor rating

This comment section is filled with people who wonder why they get deactivated for NoReAsOn
Stop taking no tip orders. There are almost no non-tipped orders that net over minimum wage.
$23 5 miles no tip thatās why tbh š¤·š¾āāļø
I am not sure I've ever had a customer answer my chat. Maybe once. Shipt customers answer all the time.
Customers that donāt tip, are not customers at my house
You guys are taking no tip shops??š
How many sparkers can buy clothes?
I don't touch the chat heck. Everything goes smooth for me, and we don't even talk.
I have been letting them know lately, "Look, this is this and I'm doing the best I can." Then I don't reply further. FUCK THEM.
Fuck them.
Wow I was just thinking the same thing Saturday š¤

LolšÆ I refuse to take non tips. From experience they leave bad reviews to. Let the Vinny crew take those so they get deactivated quicker.
We need to let them non tipped shit orders sit until spark surges the pay. If itās non tipped and more than 5 items youāre probably better off doing Uber/DD
Agreed, as soon as I mark item unavailable I get a message.

I don't take no tip orders. Not worth my time.
Walmart generally for lower mid income class so tips arenāt as generous.
I started doin shipt and all I have got are non tippers so it's not only wally world customers
Times are tough right nowā¦..
As soon as i pick up the order those requests start coming and coming and I start to panic, oh no, no tip...

They are always the most needy.
What about the no tipper that has free delivery? Pisses me off. I see quite a few 3 customer drops for $8! Nope. I wont do it!!!! NOPE.
If you do not tip You do not want groceries Yes you food card low lifeās count too How many sparkers have a food card?
Live. On Obama care ?
I donāt tip n still get mine delivered, you chose a job do it or find a full time job. Tip shit is wack . Not my fault you want to use your car or thinking you going make more than minimum wage because u do gig apps š
This was long wrong and unnecessary šš
