Just posted this on FB and I feel compelled to spread the word. After years of using Instacart and recommending them, they have failed miserably on our last 3 or 4 attempts—cancelled our orders with no explanation, no notice. We sat waiting and only found out they were cancelled when we checked to see the status on the app. Instacart is dead to me. Last week I ended up taking Lyft to Publix and shopping myself, and came out ahead. Even with “free” delivery, Instacart’s additional fees + higher-than-in-store prices + tip added up to more than Lyft. The whole mission from SSR and back took 1 hour. Bonus: Publix has a decent selection of cheap Disney souvenirs!
Lyft is not going to wait while you shop. They would drop you off at Publix, then you would request another Lyft when you are done shopping and ready to return to your hotel.Do you Lyft to Publix, then take another Lyft back to your resort?
Yes. There are many drivers in the WDW area, both of mine arrived within 5 minutes.Do you Lyft to Publix, then take another Lyft back to your resort?
It was less than $10 each way, plus tip. Even with “free“ delivery from Instacart, Lyft was less because Instacart charges more than the in-store prices for the groceries and they tack on several additional charges—service fee, heavy items fee, etc.What does Lyft cost?
I was staying at Saratoga Springs so I Googled the Publix closest to my resort and came up with the one at Regency Village Shopping Center, 8145 Vineland Ave. There may be others closer to other resorts.Which Publix did you go to ?
