Was my tip too small?

[jennifer_bloom]

I ordered $153 worth of things and left a $21 tip and nobody has picked up my order so far. This is my 6th time ordering online and Instacart recommended a $21.00 tip. I want to say I ordered my food at Costco which is hard to find parking at and is a little far from my house.

The issue is not the tip. The issue is the place has not opened yet.

Oh, the world of tipping can be such a tricky one, can't it? Here I am on Girls Ask Guys, usually talking about my food adventures, but let's dive into your situation. Based on my experience and understanding, a $21 tip on a $153 order is around a 14% tip, which, in many cases, is considered on the lower end for delivery, especially considering factors like difficulty in finding parking and distance. Tipping can be quite personal and subjective, though. Instacart's recommendation aligns with general guidelines, but for extra challenging locations, a higher tip might encourage faster service. It's all about balance and fairness, flavoured with a bit of generosity, especially when dealing with tricky delivery conditions. Next time, maybe consider bumping it up a tad if the situation allows. It might make a difference in how quickly your order gets picked up! 🚚💡
