Kroger November shops... no pickups?

I see the new postings are up, but I dont show any pickups. Is it the same for everyone else?

Yeah, there's no pickups on my board either. There have been times this past year when the pickups did not come out at exactly the same time as the rest. However, I'm curious if maybe they aren't gonna do pickups because of the holidays. I guess we'll see soon enough.
No pickups at my location either. Thanks for posting...I was hoping to find this topic.
No pick ups here either. I just got off the pick up naughty list so can’t imagine I’m back on it already!
Pickups were posted about 30 minutes after the in-store shops
That's the only thing showing on my page is pickups.
I’m doing several pick-ups in November
There were a few pickups on mine. Looks like rotation for the most part is off.
I really wish there was an option to schedule pickup and self or full checkout for the same location in one go. Would make it so much easier.

A question - with the request to have at least a ratio of 1:1 pickup and instore does that also hold for competitor shops? Should I be trying to do a kroger store for each Target or Walmart? Thanks for any insight!

Edited to add - just for anyone wondering the same, the scheduler's email does reinforce that it should be a 1:1 ratio. So, I just scheduled a few extra random shops.

Any one have insight on why I could be seeing less shops? Am I slower than other shoppers in my area at claiming shops? Or do out of rotation shops not show up by default?

Thanks all grinning smiley

It's hard to know. When I logged in today there were about 300 fewer shops than when I logged in last month. Right now there are about 200 fewer than when I logged in this afternoon. So, I think they go kind of fast.

Last month I didn't see any competitor shops and this month there were several kinds. I think there are probably several factors that affect how many jobs you might see.
All kinds of shops posted here. I picked up Kroger and competitor pick ups. Doing a Kroger pick up and in store same day. Gonna do Walmart and Target also. Helping family with groceries as I do not need that many.
nola--the last few months only shops 11 miles or further from my house were posted, No way every single close shop was snapped up so quick. Methinks the filter is broken and I'm SOL

Is there a chance you've gone over the limit for your local shops? Something like 12 or 15 times in a year. Hopefully someone can chime in with the specifics.
There were 775 shops when I first logged in. They included lots of pickup and competitor shops.
In Dallas there were about 350 listed yesterday afternoon. This morning there was 57
Mine were a little further as well. My friend shops and saw a lot close by that I didn't have. She is new. I have five stars.

That is a bumer! Did you happen to hit the limit on the closer shops?
I could have hit the limit on the nearby stuff.

Shops near me went way down last month. Usually I could reliably wait until they were bonused and pick some up. But October they seemed to have posted fewer to begin with and then also a lot disappeared super quickly. I figured maybe some new shoppers moved into the area and possibly the client changed the number of shops they need done per month.
I don't think its rotation because I can still see ones that I am out of rotation for.
There are pickups on my area as well. I got one.
I picked up two but my whole selection is about finished for this year. I do not remember the exact total, but I am having to email scheduler for most of them if wanted so figure I must be near my limit.
I just checked, the limit is 15 times per location per year. Does anyone happen to know if that includes pickups too?
Olympia,

way I understood it, the pick up shops are separate.

Thank you! I apparently think this is the only way to get food now, lol.
All of the shops show up until they are taken. There were 775 shops when I first logged in. I was not able to self-assign many because I had already reached the limit, which I already knew about from last month. Anyway, the only reason you don't see a shop is because someone else grabbed it. They do go fast. The 775 total I first saw was cut in half about 3 hours later.
Something is happening. I did two shops yesterday. A pick up and an in store shop at the same location, like I've done many times before. I picked up my groceries, then moved my car to another parking spot. And I went in to do the inside shop.

My son was with me, in the car, not in the store. And I did the reports while he dashed. Just like almost every other time. I did the reports in the order they happened, and submitted the pick up shop first. Then about 40 minutes later, I finished the in-store shop report and submitted it. The pick up shop had already been accepted and was included in the list of shops approved for payment. Then bright and early this morning, I got an email saying that my shop has been withdrawn. I won't be reimbursed. And The scheduler, who usually answers right away, or within the hour, has not responded at all.

Does anyone have a clue what's going on? I know I did the shop correctly.
