Instacart Isn't The Same In 2024...

This video is about some of the changes instacart has made with their algorithms & some malfunctions with their app. Compared to 2-3 years ago they've added new systems that just don't make it the same anymore...

I appreciate you, sis! I watched one of your vids where you mentioned using the custom greeting. I immediately tweaked the CG in my app, and I use it for every batch now. It has DEFINITELY made a difference with a lot of customers, and the tip increases are the proof. Thanks much!

[@RUBENSIFONTEZ]

There definitely showing and prioritizing new shoppers and definitely releasing the batches differently

[@angelobarrett457]

Exactly they are. That's weird

[@davinpatton2715]

Story for today. I hurt my back carrying a case of water (40 count) up some stairs. I was srill able to do about 2 more orders and i couldve kept going but im done for today and i seen a $49 for a 3 shop and deliver. Don't want my back to get worse so ill jump back on instacart another day

[@menace4118]

I wish u and Var weren’t just gig channels and do more stuff together like a couples channel with more stuff like: cooking, traveling, vlogs, pranks, gamings, Instacart funnyVid/Reddit reactions, hauls, workouts, mukbangs, storytimes, challenges etc that way we’d at least get more uploads🥲

[@michaelaxis6304]

shut up

[@jasonmomo4973]

I'm telling you, I'm feeling your pain. Not only does it get stupid slow sometimes but, even when there is orders customers are either out of their mind's or straight up taking advantage of shoppers with their 50 item 10 mile delivery thinking tipping 2 $ is o.k. like that shit ain't funny. I don't take shh like that but, you see them. Sometimes though I'll be sitting too long with no batches and, I'll take like a 20 item 2.5 mile delivery batch for like 10.50 THATS still BS like a mutha! I don't understand why anyone thinks it's o.k. to give someone 5$ to shop their damn 20 item food order and, use your gas to bring it to them. When you step in that store, unless it's 5 items or under , it's taking you 45 min. 20 items, shopping, checking out, bagging and, delivering is an hour of your time all together. Don't care how fast one can be; most of the time at least 4 of those 20 items ain't gonna be in stock so, now your stopping, texting the cust, waiting for response for replacement 4 times at least. So, it's gonna be an hour all together of your time. These people know it takes an hour on the average to do just smedium food order. So, if your a customer and, you think 5$ is o.k. for all that service your straight up taking advantage. Instacart only be paying 4$ and, shhh so, with your 5$ dudes working an hour for you for 9$. You want to work for 9$/hr? You don't go out to eat and, tip your server 5$ right? You be tipping the flipping pizza man 5$ right? So, why would you do it to insta shoppers who provide way more of a service. Shh just boils me. Sorry for the rant but, instacart is getting to be so not worth it. Their taking advantage of shoppers as well with their 4$ BS. With that and, custs on that slave dollar shhh it's getting ridiculous.

[@7topseven7]

Been a shopper since 2017. Now a days you just have to take bad orders. Being picky makes day inconsistent. Since I started to just take most orders $20 and up I’m back to over $1k a week.

[@irismargot92]

Hey! How many hours do you work to make the $1k a week? Also, do you live in a large city? I’m looking to do this on the nights and weekends to help pay off some credit card debt. Thanks!

[@7topseven7]

@@irismargot92 last week made $1044, 41 active hours that doesn’t count waiting for batches. I take batches 7 days a week between 9am to 7pm. Definitely need to grind to hit these numbers consistently. Not a big city palm beach fl area.

[@putaquericoeh]

​@@irismargot92WE DON'T NEED NEW SHOPPERS! FIND ANOTHER JOB! DO UBER!

[@toddschoonover5919]

@@irismargot92 Most $20 orders will take you between 45 minutes to an hour and a half to shop and deliver. Then you have to get yourself back into a hot zone to get another order. $20/hour is a pretty good average you can depend on when planning. There will be days where you make much more than this, but there will also be days where you struggle to make this. So to make $1000 in a week, you should expect to have to work 50 hours. It's not something you will be able to do if you're working as a second job. I use the app as a supplement to my income as well, and I just try to set a goal for myself of $40 per day. Some days this can mean doing 1 order and other days it can mean doing two to three orders.

[@tiffanyochoa6943]

I feel like it definitely is based on your acceptance rate lately. Definitely not the same as before..

Yea my area been got over saturated I gave up last year 4 years strong lol when I started being out for 5 hours and not gettin anything I knew it was over lol I finally found independent contractor jobs that aren’t driving that I do from home now with laptop and do this on the side now good luck to y’all still driving👍

[@PI1901]

Same. Thankfully, I live across the street from a Costco. Most days, I can sit at home, work on my other projects, and watch the app randomly. I'm sure I miss a lot of batches cause I'm not glued to the app. But if I see something good, I grab it. For instance, I snagged a 60 going 2.8 mi from Best Buy yesterday. Felt amazing to get one after waiting for hours.

[@Deftones22]

Definitely days I feel like I’m being throttled. A lot of the time i feel like it’s at the end of the month. Days where I see stores say high demand and don’t see any orders or I’ll be next to other shoppers talking about “oh there’s a $50 up” and they show me and it’s not on my screen. I have a 5.0, no bad marks and diamond but hear a lot of the time later in the day “oh there was a $108 and $87 at Costco drop” and i was there at open and didn’t see anything over $35.

[@toddschoonover5919]

Definitely agree with you. Happened to me yesterday. I sat around Costco and multiple Publixes yesterday for over an hour without seeing any orders. I even had a friend who lives about a mile away from a Publix I was at put in an order and I never even saw the order. I can only assume a diamond cart shopper picked it up (I'm only platinum, but 5 stars, less than 100s / item shop time)

[@martinperezpaulino6378]

Well I work in a wegmans too permanently in PA and the game it’s same as you’re showing…People take batches sometimes it’s you who take it and the algorithm is for you sometimes not….thats why I’m not used to wait anymore anything profitable pops I take it ( I try to switch take one big order then small one and it works out really well making $1700 weekly.

This just happened to me yesterday. Everyone else at the store was getting orders and I wasn't - they were only showing me trash. This happens to me at least once a week and sometimes more than once. Happens to the others too. Yesterday I wasn't down to roll with the punches and went home after making only 120. And woke up sick today to boot and took off. I needed a mental break anyway lol. The throttle is real. Sucks. But thanks for the upload. You should do more content even if it ain't IC. Var too.

[@R1ch4rd74]

one of my secrets i will tell. here is how you go from drought to orders. not promising they will be great. just orders. they may have a good one or not. ok here is how to do the secret. you have no orders at all for at least for 10 minutes, turn on airplane mode and drive to the edge of the lot. turn it off and you will have orders very soon. 1 to 5 minutes at the latest. this works a lot better on Roadie and Uber Eats as well as regular Uber. hope this helps. have a great day everyone. nice job you did there Bellpeppa. they do have folding flat carts on Amazon that hold up to 300 to 500 pounds. great for all those pesky large orders with drinks, sodas, and water. i hope this helps. good luck out there everyone.

[@MyraBeautyOfficial]

Omg my friend told me about the doing the airplane mode thing too!

[@artieanderson604]

Been a shopper since 2019. It's not the same. Took an order for $31.and change. It was a bad order. 33 miles for $31.00 but I needed the money and had the gas. Drive the 66 miles there and back and find my pay was cut by $2.00 for refunding one, ONE item. Now at $29.00 for driving a punishing 66 miles in rush traffic. It is just so not worth doing instacart any more. I wish they didn't punish shoppers for having to do a refund

[@Mike-zk7rh]

33 miles for 31 dollars make absolute no sense unless you somehow discovered teleportation

[@helljobe]

When you drive out the 33miles after delivery..it’s best to find the nearest hotspot grocery store. Sit there and wait a while, usually instacart will set you up for another order coming back so your 33mile drive back would be worth it..

[@jessejafrnd]

I’ve been back at it for 2 weeks, nothing is ever more than $25. It tried to send me on 40 item trip for $7&change once. I wish I was bankrolling half as hard as what I’m hearing, I really don’t get this.. Edit: After watching another one of your videos I get it why you are getting great paying batches, and totally dig that you are rewarded for your consistency. I haven’t shopped since 2021, and started back with 5 stars still, I’m glad they didn’t write off my prior effort. I quickly reached gold in my second week. I am a student but have been going online after school. So doing some shopping everyday. It will be difficult right now to be “7 day consistent” Thanks for your work here!

[@Bellpeppa]

You got it, just grind up to diamond and it’ll pay off. hopefully you’re in a lucrative area!!

[@iiamcortez]

Keep doing your shi** !!! I’ve watched a few of your videos so far.You are the true definition of hustle and motivated. In the Instacart space. Why you don’t upload at least 1 a week, is mind blowing. You would literally be the face of Gig, Hustle life or whatever you want to call it. I don’t know if you’ve heard of Alex Nino, but you give me those kinda positive videos. An he’s got the trucking industry in a chokehold.

[@choosetobefree]

we'll get these $60 ,triples [no-frills, loblaws] up here in canada. -makes u wanna tap but then it gets up beyond 75, 80 85 items. a grinder, takes a chunk out of your mental~ by the time you first-click until the last final drop it would've chewed up 3 hours.. so netting below 20/hr m'eh. otherwise, it'll be these 9- 14$ ones but still not enough of them

[@KayBoujeeAries89]

I just started and the app has definitely been glitching( screen goes black, have to constantly restart or not allowing you to accept the batches you selected).

[@JosephusMarco]

hello, i admire u as one of the shoppers doing instacart. i worked as a support, i would hirely suggest that you should put a goal like complete 70-100 batches (not order but batches) a week so that you'll become a diamond cart shopper and receives batches that has high batch like over $30 and above for just 1 order in a batch. i feel sorry for those shoppers since instacart keeps on changing the process, as much as i love to give all of you an extra bump but i cannot since i am just working also, it might lead to termination if i do that, sorry

[@noahrodriguez1895]

My thought is it's probably an algorithm that caps your weekly earnings and sees if you hit a certain amount it will give it to other shoppers who don't work as much or don't have that much money yet. I myself am getting uncomfortable and starting to move to other areas where rich people live. You have to go where the money is. I'm doing research to find the richest houses in a specific place 1m+. None of this 350k below house bullshit cause those people don't tip much. Most orders from them will be around 20-25 dollars. I'm hunting for 30-100+ consistently. So far I went to this new place and was getting +40 dollars 4 orders in a row so that's an improvement, was making 31 an hour from 3-7pm. But yeah probably the app is capping you so you don't make that much money so you can continue working for Instacart like a fucking slave. The same thing happens to me in my previous area. No orders for like 2-3 hours and than a like 70 dollar order drops. It always averages to 20 an hour, fucking evil people at the top of the food chain who have all the money.

[@B_Don123]

[@min_blogs28landing32]

It's awful and slave labor. I used to make $600-$800/ week for good weeks and bad weeks were $500. Now for the from Feb-present (May 2024), $400 a week is average but really it's like $300/ wk because I ONLY TAKE ORDERS WITH LOL MILES AND ITEMS, NO MULTIPLE OF 3 UNLESS IT'S CLOSE TO $45 AND UP, AND I ABSOLUTELY DON'T ACCEPT ORDERS UNDER $13 BUCKS. THEREFORE, I WILL SIT FOR AWHILE WAITING FOR A GOOD ORDER AND IF IT DOESN'T COME, I'M OUT. USUALLY A FEW WILL COME ONCE A WK VS 3-4/WK. WE ARE NOT SLAVES

[@Dozjah]

I notice the algorithm will show me orders I’m more likely to accept. Or similar orders I’ve already accepted for the day. Maybe you took some not so great orders now the algorithm is trying to feed you them batches. But I’ve been having instacart remove batches in my doubles and triples a lot. It helps cut down the time and not cater to non tippers.

[@deniseshull686]

In PA I’m lucky if I ever see batches above $50 few and far between and that’s even as a diamond cart chopper and I’ve been doing Instacart since 2016 and the same thing happened to me. I click it and I click it and I get it or at least I think I get it and it tells me I don’t,

[@Congress.Pub.L.97-280NowActive]

What is your star rating and shopping tier, speed and cancellation rate? Hiding/declining and not_responding/availability/inactivity hidden rate which will also go into their algorithm for their bot to process which ultimately will result in shoppers not getting orders or slave offers.

[@diamante1ification]

Technically thats discrimination and these apps aren't bound to equal opportunity rights clauses.Everyone within an acceptable distance of the store should get the same orders and like you said first come first serve. And as we are using our time devices equipment and vehicles not to mention our own bodies for labour. We should have the right to cancel what ever we see fit without being rated. The gig app rating system is quite ridiculous. For example if they see many people cancelling for the same reason improve on the issue. Or if they see orders not being accepted within a dollar , mile , or quantity of item range. We are adults not kids. Is simply a form of control.

Trying to be a shopper, but have an genuine question that as shown if you are being picky with the orders, and later pointing out for being in the bad shoppers list, as I know we all have to make a living with the money, but the shoppers who are having consistent orders could be possible that they are not picky with such.

[@Grammyy]

Some days I get orders from everywhere in a 10 mile radius, some days I don't see any the only thing that makes a difference is driving to hotspots or stores that use Instacart for delivery. Not to mention ive been signed out of my account since Sunday because of the outage they had and Driver support has done nothing but say "Sorry we'll forward it to our team" 😭

[@Bellpeppa]

They are either hot or cold I swear 😣

[@Rob-mr4hg]

I just got to diamond and I don’t see anything different. I made $12 last 6 hours. Smh all these ppl parked next to me nowadays

[@kinggkongg9694]

Nah this job seems like hell on earth

[@Bellpeppa]

It’s not always like this lol 😂

[@josetjr109]

No offense, but you and your buddies seem spoiled. My area, Miami, rarely sees IC orders over $25. Instead of complaining, maybe be more grateful that you can decline $40 orders and make $150 in a shorter time. Trust me, its ALOT HARDER in many places

[@MariaGro]

It’s not complaining, when we used to swing only great orders and then they have you just sitting in the car w no order or just seeing 55 item 77 units for 12$ of course we have an opinion about it

[@stevensocher852]

I'm trying to figure that out... I'm in West Palm Beach and $30 is like.. tops

[@roxycruz13]

Do you have a referral code?

[@W.H.A.P.]

Would you do a “Is it still possible to make $2,000 in a week with Instacart in 2024?” video/series? For me, the “challenge” videos are the most motivating content from y’all for sure 👍

[@Bellpeppa]

Definitely on my list!

[@lianmartinisbuck5580]

Here in Los Angeles California they don’t give orders. By radar they give orders to. A higher people. They are discriminated a lot

[@LarryWright-sh4oy]

That's not how the app supposed to go, the courtesy clerk supposed to fulfill the order. Your just supposed to pick up and deliver. They f***** my s*** up

[@davinpatton2715]

I think with instacart they split the bangers that way everybody can see a banger sometimes.

[@Jake-be9ji]

Can you still make over 300 a day on Instacart?

[@shorts_luv7634]

Thank you for your insights.your right i thought insta cart manipulates the orders.i can hardly make any money.i need to do muliply orders which i have not done.insta cart is not for faint of hearts.its cat and mouse game

[@thompsonellis6002]

No gig app is good since 2024

[@Matt-q5t]

You complain too much

[@M.A.R.V.]

ikea bags is so smart

[@OliverOwen1122]

We need more bell peppa😢

[@min_blogs28landing32]

Not to mention Instacart is taking our tips. I tell the customers i will not refund many items because they reduce our tips per item. I simply tell them whatever I don't ring up at checkout is what they WON'T GET CHARGED FOR, basically it's refunded. QUIT TAKING OUR FREAKING TIPS. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL BECAUSE IT IS NOT OUR FAULT THE STORE IS OUT OR THE CUSTOMER DOESN'T WANT THE REPLACEMENT

[@MirokuDelivers]

They are not taking tips away bud that's called tip% based on groceries cost it's a customer chosen tip option it sucks when u refund and you see that number drop but that's how % works you could always ask them to consider a flat rate tip but tread lightly if it's someone who offers 15% + on tips Some customers are pretty good at increasing tip post delivery if they seen you had trouble with the order

[@LVERGIRL28]

I’ve been doing instacart for 7 years back in the days I used to make 1200 a month as my second job it was a good side gig. Now I get lucky if I make $400 a month.

[@Bellpeppa]

They definitely make you work harder now a days! But any money on the side is good!!!

[@loftin01]

On wow. I make between 500 to 850 a week as a side gig.

[@Vanzywanzy5151]

I swear they did a bate and switch on me yesterday

[@selfcarebeautyandbodyllc]

Are you shopping for those items or are you just doing pick up?

[@Bellpeppa]

Shop & deliver

[@FarmerSam-h1c]

hm

[@davinpatton2715]

I made 25k in a day doing IC. Got a batch 1 shop and deliver 10 items, 12 units , 2 miles and pay was $2500. 😂

[@Bellpeppa]

🤯🤯🤯

[@tonystarks4395]

So after u got paid 2,500 u bet it on fanduel and made 25 k?

[@solo_jay]

I hate double and triple only orders

[@zookini]

Turning your phone off doesn’t do diddly. Gig apps want their shoppers to be part time. 15 hours a week for all

[@Steviewonderwhy]

Is DoorDash and Uber eats better than instacart? For now

[@Bellpeppa]

I have a 7 day series where I did dd and did pretty well, I feel like if you mix instacart w dd you can pull good $!
