There is a group at my store, a mother and son.

The son was bulldozing around the store, like he was shot out of a cannon.

Store manager was talking to a guy in dairy, sees the son going like a sprinter, asks him to slow down.

The kid says no, and keeps on going.

That's all Ive got.

What's everyone's opinion of Instacart shoppers? Got any stories?

 I think people should read the sign's on the cart if they say charging then they are charging. My store has tried and tried to keep the carts plugged up. They are constantly being used and when one breaks down sometimes customers complain.

 Then get off your ass and do something about it? Like idk plug it in? Talk about a lazy piss poor employee. 

Some are cool, some piss me off.

They tend to be under a time crunch, which can result in jerky behavior.  A lot of them like to start their order as soon as possible and scan their phone on my scanner, or grab my scan gun to scan their phone.  They prefer to do this while we are still bagging the previous order.  They also really love to grab my scan gun and try to scan things while I am keying in produce.

Generally speaking, they are jerks about bagging.  Everything has to be bagged perfectly, so they often refuse help and insist on doing it themself.  Normally, that wouldn't be so bad and that's how it would go anyways since we don't have any package help.  The problem is that many of them love to bag their entire order first (after refusing my help), and then pay for it after.  CCG's aren't as big a deal these days, but it still pisses me off.

One Instacarter gets really pissy when you ask for his shopper's card.  "Do you have your Kroger card?"  "No, I'm ****ing Instacart".

I really love to watch the jerky Instacarters go through Senile Grandma Cashier's lane.  She's slipping, so every day is basically her first day cashiering.

Obnoxious as hell!
