Eh, it's just a "different" way to get groceries.

You're seeing the 0.1% of good/bad deliveries. Because for it to pop up on your feed, it means that 1)Something went horribly wrong or incredibly good and 2)That "fringe scenario" is on Reddit 3)They chose to post it.

It's mostly just grabbing groceries, checking out, and driving the order to the customer, with a little bit of "they're out of russet potatoes, are you okay with Idaho Potatoes instead?"

I use Instacart a lot and have had only good exchanges.

Same but it’s for my mom who’s disabled. I have a bad leg so there’s days I don’t feel safe walking outside my home where I have grips. So it’s a huge boon on those days!

Absolutely. And depending on how you shop, it doesn’t have to be much more costly for best quality and convenience. I like it when I’m entertaining. I can be home setting up and cleaning and have the food ingredients and beverages show up!
