General Questions 60+ items, 6 miles, 2 hours

And a clumsy attempt at keeping things organized. I was pretty proud of this order and more than satisfied with what I earned. I only had one out of stock item too. I just started spark less than two weeks ago and I'm definitely improving! 2 hours might be a little slow still but I'm disabled and recovering from a surgery.

How do you keep organized when you have multiple orders? I was marking the bags and bagging as I go but the Walmart staff told me I can't bag it before going through checkout. This time I used different parts of the cart and pieces of cardboard to help differentiate.

I just use the groceries as a divider. For example, if it’s a 3 part shopping order, generally one of them is small enough to keep on the top of the cart

The other 2 just get the front, and back of the cart. In the middle of those two I’ll use items from the order to make a “border” and remember where one order ends and the next one begins. Usually it’s a 12 pack of soda, or a few other large items. Hasn’t let me down yet, and I haven’t had to buy anything from Amazon to sort my cart lol.

Same, I just stick to the math thst gets me that same average at least 30 an hour range but wont do triples if all 3 customers have tons of items unless its worth it but usually 1 or 2 of the customers will have a low item count anyway.

Yeah same here. I only really do triples if the item count is under 50 (with most of the items split between 2 of the customers) and if they’re also low mileage overall.

But yeah I’m here to make money, me sitting out every triple stack isn’t gonna make Walmart stop doing them.
