Instacart Driver Left Groceries in the Sun, Then Rang the Doorbell Asking for a Bigger Tip
Yahoo • • business
Key Points:
- Security footage shared on X shows an Instacart driver ringing a customer's doorbell after delivery to request an additional tip, despite the customer having already tipped $12 before the order.
- The driver left the groceries in direct sunlight on the porch and repeatedly asked for extra money, though it is unclear if the customer gave more; the driver left after making the requests.
- Comments on the video were mixed, with some viewers willing to tip conditionally if groceries were handled properly, while others condemned the driver’s behavior and suggested reporting her.
- Instacart does not endorse in-person tip solicitation after delivery, and shoppers typically earn $7 to $10 per batch before tips; the company had not responded publicly to the incident at the time of reporting.
- The Daily Dot could not independently verify the video's details, including the identities involved, location, or total order value.
