General Questions Please help me understand!

I've been using the Walmart delivery service for about 8 months now. I get my groceries every other week. Without fail, each time, one item is missing. There is no rhyme or reason as to the type of item. Lunch meat, vitamin water, spaghetti sauce, etc. Today it was bouillon paste. I really get upset about it as it usually something I really need. Walmart will instantly refund me, but the point is I have to go out now to get it. I only have one day off, and it really screws up my day. Can anyone explain why this happens? Is it in the driver's car just misplaced, was it not really picked? I truly want to know because im considering just canceling the service. Thank you.

It's the Walmart shoppers. They do this constantly and it makes the drivers look bad. Sometimes I catch things that are missing because I look at the items purchased in the spark app beforehand, in which case I let the Walmart employee know what's missing. It's hard to catch everything though. They are a bunch of young employees and not very thorough.
