Please, if possible, comment if you have a maximum amount and if there are any factors that influence your decision (such as delivery distance or COVID, for example).
Example: if your order its 200$, would your tip be 10% or would you stick to your regular %?

      Thanks SFLOEY, I completely agree with you plus, effectively, I am a woman.
      UghWhyTho, first, Instacart has a different pricing strategy | business model (nevertheless, I tip the shopper too), secondly, if it is so absurd, why don’t you do it yourself? It is work, and as such it should be rewarded/compensated. Otherwise you are promoting subemployment, a proxy to slavery. You are profiting from the most vulnerable.

      Instead of tip shaming y’all should maybe hold DoorDash Grubhub, and Uber accountable for paying their people a living wage 🤷🏻‍♂️. Food delivery is not new, it’s just more convenient and WAY more expensive than it was in the past.

    We've been wfh for months, while people are risking their lives to go out to work because they don't have a choice. I have been tipping more recently, not just for online orders, but wherever possible.

  • Tipping is not a thing in the country I live in. Employees are paid on their wage.
    Having said that, there’s already a delivery fee in each order.

      It is not a thing on my country of origin either, but we live here now. It is like a price unbundling. Product - labor. They are working for you for a very basic salary (truly basic) plus tips (main source of income). It is a way to be fair with people who are working hard and might not have had the same educational and working opportunities that you had.
