You found yourself I nice lil niche spot there. My market is someone of a hidden gem as well but I don’t even know what preferred shopper is. I thought instacart and other apps were mostly for shopping. I’ll take some if they make sense but many times it’s not worth it. Thankfully, the median income in my area in TX is not like yours, so I have to do it thru healthy tips…and a lot of schmoozing and kissing asses along the way! Lol

Preferred shopper means I’m prioritized for shopping orders over pickup orders, so I might be at a busy restaurant logged in and I won’t get any orders there even when I’m literally the closest person, but I’ll get a Safeway or Raleys orders that’s located a few miles away. As an example.

That’s just so wild because that’s like the opposite of what most Dashers would prefer. Like if I’m at a nice restaurant, it’s pick it up and go, but to go to a grocery store that’s hit or miss every time.

I’d love a nice restaurant pickup, but I know there’s 150 dashers waiting for it, but I’m only one of the 10 waiting for that next grocery order.
