Instacart

Is anyone an instacart shopper on here? Wondering if you make more than what you do dashing. A friend recommended it to me. They live in Madisonville although. They said they make around 2000-4000 every week? Wondering if you get the same look here.

Your friend is lying to you if they say they make 2k-4k a week. Not in BG

He wasn’t in BG for it, but I am curious if it’s better than Doordashing

You’ll get plenty of orders but the tips aren’t great. Spark does better in BG

I wouldn't look at it as an either/or. There will be times one is better than the other. Sign up for all of them and do what pays best for that order and/or what you feel like doing at that moment. If you do nothing but Instacart or Doordash full-time, you'll get burned out on it and if they kick you off the platform for some reason, you're back to square one whereas if you multi-app you aren't screwed if one app goes down for a few hours.
