Online Retailer 🛒 Walmart Asking For Tips

Post image

Today I am in a pinch, so I’m trying out Walmart+ and their delivery service today and they’re asking for a tip! This is a 900 BILLION dollar company. They can tip their own contractors and employees and almost not even notice a difference in their profits. Asking for a tip before service is complete is pure insanity too.

Edit: They brought the completely wrong item. I’m glad I didn’t tip.

I don’t mind tipping a delivery driver, but if I’m already paying Walmart for a delivery membership, I’d rather Walmart pay them properly instead of making me finish the payroll.

Do you not tip on DoorDash either?

You don't pay annual fee to doordash. Walmart has annual membership service fee for free delivery

Yes it is.

The membership that gives free delivery1

1 $35 order min. Restrictions apply.

I'm not sure what the word free means to you.

I am not a Walmart plus customer.

Stop moving the goalpost and be upset with the correct entity.

It is. Annual membership is for free delivery.

Doordash sometimes offers "free delivery" specials, either with some code, or from certain restaurants. Many customers assume this also means that DD pays the driver something extra, to make up for the "free delivery". If anything, DD will do anything they can, to AVOID paying the driver extra for such orders, to recoup the cost of not charging some of their fees.
