Ann Instacart customers identified in tick tock A video of her driver allegedly marking her order as out of stock and then wasting her dime on groceries. It is believed to contain tequila.
The video was uploaded by TikTok user Fe (@fayfayfayth) to reveal a screen recording of his Instacart app. “Okay, let’s see what the Instacart driver stole from my account instead of getting what I deserved,” she said. First, she scrolled through the items she ordered. Some of the groceries included sodas, breakfast items, fruit, and more. But what stood out was that all of her items were “out of stock.”
After scrolling through the orders she placed, the content creator revealed what the driver allegedly stole, replacing the “out of stock” items with what she clearly wanted. “Instead of getting what I need and throwing it away, they’re going to use my account and spend $360 to buy whatever they want,” she said. The driver seems to have gotten everything from nail kits and alcohol to cake mix and toilet paper.
“So I hope this is a red flag,” said Hoe, who has never heard of an Instakart driver doping it.
Content creators shared plans to get refunds and repeated warnings. Plus, she was frustrated because she couldn’t cook dinner anymore. Instead, her Instacart driver is said to be dining with her dollars.
“So I hope they enjoy their champagne dinner,” she concludes the video.
