26 years ago tomorrow Kurt Cobain killed himself. Also 26 years ago tomorrow I saw Pink Floyd live, but I guess that’s a different thread.

Good morning fellow cats turkers...

y'all must be like cats as the tuna and a lot of other canned and packet seafood was almost completely cleaned out of the grocery store Friday afternoon, along with a lot of easy prep meal things like mac and cheese, rice box stuff like jumbolaya and mexican, ramen, and soups.

does anyone know about tipping with instacart? I ordered some groceries (car in shop). I tipped 20% (which is a lot for cheap-o me). Is tipping through the app the best way? It's what I did. I did have some cash here at the house (which is unusual). Should I have given them cash at the door?

I always give cash, I think of it a lot like wait staff... I always give cash so they don't HAVE to claim it ( I know legally they should claim everything)

Ah ha! That consumer827 20.00 HIT from the other day that I was worried about just sent me a 5.00 bonus!. I really didn't expect a bonus, since there were so many strange things to muddle through. This is good to know(in case you're wondering why I'm telling you this). It can mean that the requester is tolerant rather than picky-ass as some are.....and Good Morning. Maybe eventually it'll be light out there. Not that there's anything out there that I want to see.
