Hi.

I will be getting two different orders from Instacart, alcohol and food.
Instacart only asks me once for the tip amount, however, the alcohol one is not only less cost wise but just two items, while my food is more and want to tip more. Are the people that deliver the shoppers?

Will both get the same tip, will I be charged two tips and how can I make two seperate tips.

Thank you.

I was a driver..
The tip is split and not always even. I cant say for sure how they do it, I would like to say it's off the total spent. I have had people ask what the tip shows. Maybe they want to know if I am getting the amount they wrote in??? Many people cash tip as well.
If you take the tip away the order may not get picked up. On the instacart batch screen it shows the store and the amount they are offering to complete it.. like 40 items $9.00 for 4 miles. That would include the tip so with out it it would say something like $4. Depending on the mileage
Sometimes they have instore shoppers and we just pick the order up and sometimes we shop it.
Depends on the store...
Tip: You can shop costco with out a membership

I use instacart and tip either 10% or 15% on the total order, I think the app defaults to percentage but you can change it. My orders are always over $200.
 
Do you have to be at the resort to pick up your order as soon as it's delivered?
If it contains alcohol, then yes you need to meet the driver and provide proof of age.
 
Can they deliver to the room of does the stuff need to go to the front desk? Biggest item in demand would probably be water bottles, can they be delivered or are drinks listed as "pick-up only" with Instacart?

Instacart can deliver to bell services but not to your room. Bell services can bring your order to your room if you are there. If you are not in when the order arrives, bell services will hold it for you.
