The substitutions offered are also frequently terrible, and always without fail for more expensive items. Sometimes ridiculously so. And I'm pretty sure the shopper sometimes just doesn't want to buy some of the stuff I've ordered, like watermelons or water, that I know is available in the store.
Overall, I've found FreshDirect to offer a much more reliable service with good pricing and selection as well. They seem more professional in all regards. I also look forward to seeing what Amazon / Whole Foods come up with together, but I don't think the Instacart shopper model is something I'm interested in using again, it just seems like a fundamentally inefficient model.
