In this video, I dive into how Instacart has been seriously slowing down their order boosts — sometimes increasing by just 2 cents at a time! 😤 I’ll walk through a few real examples of what I’ve seen lately, including:
Orders sitting for 2+ hours with barely any increase
What happens when customers pay for Express vs not
Why tips matter more than ever
The strange psychology behind tiny boost increases
What I really think about Instacart alcohol deliveries 🍺
This video is for Instacart shoppers, gig workers, and anyone wondering how the Instacart boost system works in 2025.
