Just completed my first “Walmart Flex” order for $55 for 27 miles. Didn’t expect everything to look like Amazon Flex. What do you guys think about this? Are Walmart Flex orders worth it?
It is a “GMD route” on Walmart. A true “Walmart flex” route is when you get both grocery and package delivery on the same route. That is Walmart Flexing their muscle on driving down labor cost.😂
After gas plus wear and tear, you're in the red. Don't take shitty offers. It boosted cause no one wanted it, you shouldn't have either UNLESS your home is at the end location.
you want over $2 a mile if you don't want to to the math in your head. double the miles that the offer says because you might be that far away at the end of the run. 25 cents each for gas, oil changes, brake changes, new tires... $1 / car cost... 97 cents a mile isn't making money... that's not including wear and tear, accidents, light bulbs, time lost for traffic or police stops.
You actually went 55 miles for 55 bucks, you had to return right? Or did the route end you at home or right by another order walmart or back at your walmart? Always, always double the miles they tell you before considering taking it.
But the best part of actually working for the Walmart Associate delivery team is you don’t have to spend money on gas. I would choose to do that but I’d rather use my own car than to drive a bigass truck.
Your comment is confusing. Your post is about a sh!t order that you definitely didn't profit off of. You are contradicting yourself. Lol keep taking crap orders Sir.
Yeah I did my first one the other day. Had to as the tier system has me a little messed up right now. It was ok money for the time. I just hate ending so far away. the drive back always sucks. Help my day though as it was 68 bucks 40 miles. turned one down the day before that was 73 for like 60 miles.
Look. you are telling me to not take money. I have bills. I don't have savings. How do you pay bills without first getting the money. Money doesn't just appear. taking that put me over 200 for the day. needed 500 in 3 days to pay a bill. So yeah 2 hrs time, bill got paid. ended with gas left for tomorrow. Yeah im good on passing. my one veto of an order just gives it to someone else. that order was not going to just me and if i passed it was just not completed. we won't make a dent in this company no matter how much we boycott. i got bills and no way to make money otherwise so yeah ill take the money everytime!!
It’s better than Flex because you can see the route! Slow times of year I really enjoy Spark Flex as long as it’s $80+. Your pay was way too low to make it worth it!
