What did your delivery shopper steal from you?

[Anonymous]

Never had that type of issue with grocery delivery. But I did have a door dash delivery person take my food order. They picked it up and just started driving away from my house. No clue where they were going. They wouldn't communicate with me or with door dash.

2. The box of kitchen trash bags was opened and the delivery shopper took a few trash bags.

For all the deliveries I have had during COVID and when my car was in the shop, two times isn't that bad.

How about you? I didn't report it.

That's smart and a win-win. It would be courteous to leave a note that you should deduct a bit from tip for the sharing, but you did get the extra potatoes.

I think that happens when someone stealborrows someone's phone.

Or a dasher is quitting and this is their "retirement party"

Almond mom checked in. Now, who’s going to post that potatoes are low class and it’s trashy to eat them?

And don’t forget, almond mom will say a potato should feed a family of 6 and have leftovers.

Never had anything taken, but I've definitely received lots of extras.

I don't order a lot because I don't like paying the fees. I reserve it for when I absolutely have to, like when I'm sick and don't want to be in public.

I got meds delivered from Walgreens once and also ordered some OJ, Gatorade, and Combos (my comfort snack). I received my meds, and the other bag was full of tampons, pads, chocolate, Midol, and a heating pad. I think about that a lot. Some poor woman was super excited to get her period relief only to open the bag to find sick food and no chocolate.

Each time it's happened, and I contacted support, I'm always told to keep the items.

The best extra I ever received was when I picked up a grocery order at Wegmans. They loaded an extra bag and it had caviar, some fancy cheese, and fruits. I called and they also told me to keep it. Blessssss.

Are you talking about where you buy one shrink-wrapped russet potato? First time I ever saw that in a store my jaw dropped to the floor. Right about the time I saw a "Gluten Free!" sign on the cabbage bin (yes, really).

You know, all you do is take a russet potato, stab it with a fork a few times, and nuke it. 5-7 minutes usually does it. And he was probably right about the price. And most stores have bins where you can buy just one potato if you want.

Ok I just opened my grocery app, and the only two options for whole organic sweet potatoes is a 3 lb bag for $4.69 or a single one with a sticker labeled “microwaveable” on it for $1.79, tho I don’t think it’s shrink wrapped. This didn’t used to be the case. I don’t like the bags because the sweet potatoes that come in the bags are always very skinny and stringy, which my toddler will not eat. NP

Nah.
Here is the worst case, fully loaded large baked potato:

One large russet potato: 290 calories
1 T. Butter: 100 calories
2 T. Sour cream: 57 calories
1/2 oz. Cheese: 58 calories
Bacon crumbles equiv. To 1 piece: 43 calories
Chives: 1 calorie
Total: 549 calories
Add a side of streamed broccoli and you are up to 600 calories. 600 calories is not too much for one meal by any stretch.
Whole potatoes are not the problem. Americans are fat because they drink empty calories and eat tons of processed and fried foods. A whole baked potato is actually pretty harmless.

OP here. I use non fat Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and "I Can't Believe It's not Butter Spray" zero calories. Most of my meals are around 400 calories.

It's just once a week. It satisfies my craving for a potato 🥔 better than 🍟🍟🍟 French fries.

Not instacart, but had a doordasher open up a container of 2 samosas and eat one of them. I kind of don't blame the person, because they are delicious.

Same. I felt especially bad in the middle of Covid when we got someone's baby wipes, diapers, and toddler toothpaste. We had a baby that fit into them, so we were really confused about it before we realized we got someone else's bag. I felt terrible that someone probably really needed those diapers and wipes!!

Fix your toddler.

What’s a microwaveable potato as opposed to any other potato? All potatoes are microwaveable. You just poke them with a fork and nuke. Buying an individual shrink wrapped potato seems very odd. Are they expensive? We buy a 10lb bag for 4.99. Not everyone can use 10lbs of course, so buy 3lbs. They keep for some time.

128 fl oz milk. It was during Covid, the 1st delivery we ordered 3 but missed 1. Same to 2nd also 3rd order, and since there would be substitute we ordered 3 different brand, and it was always the highest priced one missing. We just stopped ordering from that supermarket ( they had their own delivery team).
