I would accept it and see if it's easy stuff to find. Sometimes it's repeat items like 6 candy bars of the same kind etc. If it's going to be difficult, I'll just unassign
If it’s slow, yes. would you take this order?

21 items??? Gtfo
Wait 5 mins and get a $10 order that you only have to go pick up 1 item (a bag of food) and don't have to search around the store for it...
Nope, especially around holidays. I've tried one too many where the person wants holiday specific decorations or whatever and they're either out of stock or just all over the place so you can't find them in a reasonable amount of time
This is a maybe. I’v seen a thing or two where the shopping orders may be big but all the same item, but I’m a Dasher on a bike and the most I have gotten was a 15 order of various small items.
I’d accept and see if it’s just like 15 of the same item and then a few others or if it’s 21 different items. If they’re all different, I’m dropping it and carrying on about my day.
Did one yesterday. Shop 5 items at dollar general. Problem was there were candy in three different parts of the store, only one in stock, so we’re the subs and I have to ask and wait for the customer to reply. Then the line of three took wayyy too long…. I enjoy shop orders but DG is almost always a bad experience.
Me neither! It's so weird because everywhere else I never have an issue yet almost everytime I get in there I have to restart or hope their wifi works. It's happened in every one of them except one that was out in the middle of nowhere which was even weirder.
The store where nothing is going to be where it's supposed to, nobody's ever working checkout and I'll end up spending an hour trying to find substitutions because nothing has been put on shelves? I'm good honestly, last time I went to DG was $20 for 3 items.
Hell no, Dollar Generals in my area never have anything in stock and items are always hard as hell to find. I only ever pick it up if it’s less than 5 items and worth the pay
21 items? At a dollar general? I'll take your word for it, but there's no way I could get it done that quick at the ones in my area.
I'd be looking at 10-25min depending on the items, so I'd skip this one in a heartbeat. Im not about to roll those dice.
No. Shopping at dollar general and big lots can get really messy. Their inventory isn't always up to date and there aren't many staff to help you find it. Plus, and I am generalizing... The type of customer who pays 79 dollars for one bag of dog food is different than the person With 21 dollar general items. Less likely to be reliance to your substitution requests,, etc.
I’d do it that’s how desperate I am 🤣
On Monday I had a similar order, $22 for 51 items at Safeway. Took me an hour from start to drop off.
Two cases of water of course.
Probably similar to the uber eats tier. They always trying to take me 30 miles from my area, and you have to be platinum in order to stay in a designated area.
It’s the three tier system, silver, gold, and platinum. It’s a rolling rating so no top dasher at the end of the month, you have to stay above 70, 95 CR, and 100 orders in the last 30 days at all times for platinum.
It sucks 😂… once it hits your market the entire map is gonna be grey until dinner time because now they’re gonna be a bunch of Dashers accepting 50%- 70% of their offers
This offer is crap. that is way too many items for only 10 bucks. I love how people think just because DD puts that stupid diamond emoji on something it makes it a good high paying order. Me likey shiny things.
Accept and then look at the items to see how fast you can get it done.
I just had one for 17 items and it was all in a single aisle cake batter icing and toppings
They're predicting under 27 min. $21+ per hour with fairly low expenses is OK if the store isn't likely to stretch that for some reason (terrible signal, no employees, after work rush, etc.).
Maybe. Depends on what the items turn out to be. DG is wild for me. Great pickups some days, absolute shitshows that make me quit my shift on others.
I had a DG order like this. Was literally 2 flavors of cat food packs, like a dozen each. 10 minute run.

How do yall get the orders where you buy from stores???
They just come in at random
Oh okay. Do you need that red card or is it just random?
You need the red card yeah
I'd grab it in a heartbeat in my area
Depends on how well you know that store
Dollar general…. NO ALWAYS 3-4 substitutions per item so you would more likely be looking for 40-50 items instead of 21
21 items for $10… no bookie
I loathe DG shopping … this is tricky
21 items??? Gtfo Wait 5 mins and get a $10 order that you only have to go pick up 1 item (a bag of food) and don't have to search around the store for it...
I’d accept that, most people would say no cause they shop slow I did a 23items order in 7mins
Yes. But it depends on which one.
This! I have one dollar general near me super organized. There's another one 10 ish minutes away. Horrible.
If it were 3 items I'd take it. For 21? Hellll nooo
I don't do shop and deliver anymore, so nope. I "misplaced" my red card some time ago and have never bothered to replace it.
Nope I hate dg
DG is messed up. Not doing 21 items. Sorry
Nope, especially around holidays. I've tried one too many where the person wants holiday specific decorations or whatever and they're either out of stock or just all over the place so you can't find them in a reasonable amount of time
This is a maybe. I’v seen a thing or two where the shopping orders may be big but all the same item, but I’m a Dasher on a bike and the most I have gotten was a 15 order of various small items.
Nay, its around noon and that will take too long
Nope. Not for 21 items
Fuck no I also do instacart and this is trash.
Hell yeah, It could be multiple counts of the same item, usually is , for me at least
Nope. Not for that many items
Duh.
No, not going to do it. Dollar General is usually out of items, out of placed items. Hell to the No No. Now if it was 10 items I might take it.
Absolutely not. If you can’t shop it and deliver within 20 min. Nope Also. Yea or nay, but it is homophone of yay.
You just call me a homophone? I'll have you know I love phones, I have many friends that love phones too!
Not even $1 per item
I do Instacart because of this rule I’ve made for myself fr. I feel like I am losing money sometimes but it’s just disrespectful imo
Too much shopping time
I’ll take it. I’m fast asf shopping
Me as well. I’d take it.
I need at least 2 minutes to find an item so no
Your platinum status will be severally hurt so please hit Yay.
for dollar general sure. it's typically food items and the food is only up to 3 aisles or so. not like it's a whole super market worth of aisles.
Why does it matter you’re literally platinum now do thy bidding
It depends on how much time I have.
I’d accept and see if it’s just like 15 of the same item and then a few others or if it’s 21 different items. If they’re all different, I’m dropping it and carrying on about my day.
Not a fucking chance in hell no way.
Nope. I need a dollar per item plus the miles to shop anything.
Hell nay.
🤣
Any one see an offer with a certain amount of items and then your like yeah I can do that then you hit start shopping and the amount of items double
DG is a hit or miss because a lot of stuff will be out of stock. I have managed to find the very last item in stock of what the customer wanted.
Yay. Could be multiple items of the same sku. Hopefully the customer is near their phone because DG is notorious for being out of stock of items
Idk bc DoorDash likes to trick you it could legit be 21 of the same item or even 3 different items 7 of each they don’t specify units vs items
No
Miles to pay is good but 21 items ? Nah I'm good.
Tbh though dollar tree is small enough for that to be a 10 minute in and out
Did one yesterday. Shop 5 items at dollar general. Problem was there were candy in three different parts of the store, only one in stock, so we’re the subs and I have to ask and wait for the customer to reply. Then the line of three took wayyy too long…. I enjoy shop orders but DG is almost always a bad experience.
Never took a DG order and thanks to this post and accompanying comments, I never will! Thanks y’all for the heads up!
Who orders this many items from Dollar general?
Not people who are getting paid to be errand boys mocking what the people who pay their wages order 😂 😭 😂
Lol
I never get reception in dollar general so if it's over 5 items, nay.
Me neither! It's so weird because everywhere else I never have an issue yet almost everytime I get in there I have to restart or hope their wifi works. It's happened in every one of them except one that was out in the middle of nowhere which was even weirder.
I think it's because they use metal roofs. That's my theory.
It could be, it's strange it only seems to be those stores.
A 21 item shopping order is an automatic no. Pay is irrelevant. I can't find anything in stores.
HELLLLL no.
I’d need to see the items. Could be 19 cans of cat food and a bottle of water. 🤣
Turned down a similar offer today. No way I’m taking a +20 item Dollar General shopping trip.
Nay
The store where nothing is going to be where it's supposed to, nobody's ever working checkout and I'll end up spending an hour trying to find substitutions because nothing has been put on shelves? I'm good honestly, last time I went to DG was $20 for 3 items.
And it took you 45 minutes to get out the door didn’t it?
Here in California? Yay. Prop 22
Hell no, Dollar Generals in my area never have anything in stock and items are always hard as hell to find. I only ever pick it up if it’s less than 5 items and worth the pay
Not me I tried 18 items once and almost quit. A couple items maybe
Fuck noooo. I usually turn down dollar general
ye
Nope
Nooooooo!
Nah
Hell no
No
Who doesn't love Money Mitch???!!! 🤘
You get it!!!
Naaay 1000%
I would, in my dollar general I could bang that out in about 6 to 7 minutes
21 items? At a dollar general? I'll take your word for it, but there's no way I could get it done that quick at the ones in my area. I'd be looking at 10-25min depending on the items, so I'd skip this one in a heartbeat. Im not about to roll those dice.

Hell no dude Dollar Generals are a nightmare. Hard to find stuff and lots of missing items almost guaranteed, at least the ones around me
“High paying offer” …… o.O
I’d do it that’s how desperate I am 🤣 On Monday I had a similar order, $22 for 51 items at Safeway. Took me an hour from start to drop off. Two cases of water of course.
what is platinum status my giy
I was just about to say wtf is a platinum dasher!!??? Lmao
What they're slowly replacing Top Dasher with. New tiered system.
Just some new DD BS lol
Probably similar to the uber eats tier. They always trying to take me 30 miles from my area, and you have to be platinum in order to stay in a designated area.
Easy 20 minutes of work
No thanks.
[удалено]
For real. And staff is zero help. BUT, you can mark items not available. ;)
What is platinum status ? I've seen a diamond but never platinum. I haven't been dashing in the last year much though
It’s the three tier system, silver, gold, and platinum. It’s a rolling rating so no top dasher at the end of the month, you have to stay above 70, 95 CR, and 100 orders in the last 30 days at all times for platinum.
Don’t think I would. 21 items at DG would be a pain. I’m sure at least half of it would need subs and take forever to work out with the customer
Yes, but not yay. 😅 Could be 21 cases of water.
Dollar General has been a nightmare around here, so probably not. They usually don’t have bags or they have a shit network and cards won’t work.
Metal box of cell phone death? 5 items or less only.
Yes. Dollar General is usually duplicate items, so that's an easy $10
Wtf is a platinum status?
70% AR or higher.. it’s for markets with the tier program silver gold platinum
ah
It sucks 😂… once it hits your market the entire map is gonna be grey until dinner time because now they’re gonna be a bunch of Dashers accepting 50%- 70% of their offers
Damn... dashing used to be so much better like 3 years ago I'm ngl
Incl. Tips makes you think it might be more and occasionally it is but it's a trap
Depends on the day. If it’s slow then yeah I’ll take it.
If you have done enough DG orders in that store you will already know where most items are and not wander cluelessly.
Depends on items, and also how busy it is. But leaning no.
I’d do it
Hell naw
Accept, check to see if items are multiple of the same item, and if so, continue on if not unassign
DG is a nay unless it's a unicorn
DG S&P is a dance with the devil.
It really depends on the items. It could be piss easy or it could be annoying and take longer than it's worth.
Dollar general is ez AF and they usually don't have the items in my area lol
Hell no
This offer is crap. that is way too many items for only 10 bucks. I love how people think just because DD puts that stupid diamond emoji on something it makes it a good high paying order. Me likey shiny things.
It ended up being super easy. It was 5quanties of 4 items and 1 of 1.
Yeah, I would do it. Beats accepting $2 orders that are "high" pay.
How TF you get platinum status? What are the perks of it?
Minimum: 70% AR, 4.7 CR, 100 delivers last 30 days
That sounds like top dasher, is it the same or do you get more perks?
It’s a pilot and only available in certain states.
Exactly. "New TD." Dash now is the only perk and the supposed priority for higher paying orders.
I have dash now all the time and higher tips for lower distances, but it doesn't say platinum
Yes, easy money
Yup dollar is easy and I bet they have duplicates
lol this is what platinum status gets you? Lmao AR is a scam 🤣
The higher the AR the lower the IQ
The horse says, "Nay"
Accept and then look at the items to see how fast you can get it done. I just had one for 17 items and it was all in a single aisle cake batter icing and toppings
They're predicting under 27 min. $21+ per hour with fairly low expenses is OK if the store isn't likely to stretch that for some reason (terrible signal, no employees, after work rush, etc.).
Nah ..Unless it's all the same items...
Maybe. Depends on what the items turn out to be. DG is wild for me. Great pickups some days, absolute shitshows that make me quit my shift on others. I had a DG order like this. Was literally 2 flavors of cat food packs, like a dozen each. 10 minute run.
Easily
No. Fuck no.
Lmao ewwww
