Is there some dark art to shopping a big grocery order that is beyond most folks?

It's a low-pay low-iq job. This is by design so instacart or whoever can jew the shit out of them, and to act as a retarded buffer as they jew you.

I can afford having all my groceries shopped for me but I completely stopped for this reason. These people are drooling idiots.

I stopped when they brought me an $85 brisket instead of the 1 lb of hamburger meat I ordered.

It is built to direct cattle. Produce in the front, necessities like dairy and eggs are in the back. It is all by design and sheep are just following the flow.

Ok you get a layer of frozen stuff to line the bottom then put your meat on top then throw in a few bags of chips( the foil will keep it insulated). Lastly go to produce get your stuff and since you are near the bread now get that and put it right by the milk and creamer you had there sitting on the top basket sweating down to keep the produce "crisp"

Do you even grocery? .

That sounds good... but naw, you grab the frozen right before you hit the checkout.

I was joking.

Software? Just buy your groceries like a normal human with legs. Healthy food is along the walls of the store.

Only problem I had with instacart is one didn't bag the meat and it dripped on my front steps. Otherwise it worked pretty well. Oh, and they were mexicans two times.

Give them instructions on what you want and it should be fine. I've just been eating a lot less, so it's not worth the expense.

That doesn’t make any sense. Why would they have the same employees picking an entire order and traversing the whole grocery store? There should be people pulling frozen and refrigerated items and others in getting items from the other sections, then put the two together when it’s complete.

Edit: oh you’re referring to instacart, not a grocery pickup service like Walmart and some grocery stores have.

Sometimes they do more than 1 order at once. So makes for an even better outcome.
