I did 81 in May and June. Took some that were out of my normal route. Shot myself in the foot on those. Won't be extending my radius again.
But I was double, triple dipping while at the Bigger stores, with other MSCs. So it worked out.

Were there competitors?
I noticed that some locations weren’t showing for me at all. Not sure if they were taken or if I’ve hit my limit.

I noted several locations in my area not showing at all. I think I may have come on too late- but it still seems strange as each location usually has a full serve, self check and pick up. I recently did one of the locations so I know it is shopped. I saw one $32 pick up about 15 miles from me in an unsafe area where I will not travel to- and one competitor an Aldi which I was going to assign but which got snapped up literally as I was trying to do so. This seemed to be a very early in the month time for assignments to be posted. I assigned myself 2 in stores. What concerns me is as I was unable to get any pick ups this month so if next month if I see pick ups I will have to also find in store shops one for ones. which may make me hit the 15 per store limit. Seems a bit unfair that I read here that this month's shops do not carry over in terms of getting credit for the harder and less pay in stores next month. I will try and write my scheduler to see if next month I can take pick ups without matching in stores as this month someone probably took the pick ups for the locations I am doing in stores. Annoyed with myself for being late in looking here- looked this morning and there was nothing posted- got busy with other things and missed out. oh well. .
They never last more than a couple of days on the job board. When the new list comes out I always record every Instore, Pickup and Fuel Shops ID number for each location in my radius.
Then I can send request for routes in one email with multiple dates to cut down on my schedulers onslaught of emails. I will try and schedule the entire week at a time.. I'm lucky to be in a rural location. So I can setup a 125 mile route per day and add other MSC shops along the route for maximum Bang!

After a couple months of being dry, I was able to get quite a few this month. Both fuel, in store, and pickups.
Glad you were able to get back in to get a slice of pie. I don't know how many stores are branded with Kroger and it's many subsidiaries but I'm sure it's well into the thousands. They go quickly when they hit the board. But it's strange some locations will sit there untouched for almost the entire month. I have seen locations that may have 4 stores in a 15 mile radius just sit on the job board and gather dust for almost start to finish dates. Rather odd?
They started early today. I stayed home because the Jeep is a POS and I didn't feel very good anyway. I woke up around 11:00 and it said there was one Kroger shop. And at 11:15 it said there were three. And at 11:45 it said there were 30. So I decided to get my ass in my chair at my desk and take it seriously. When it said 67 I got my first five, then I went out and signed back in again and it said 77 and the Fuel shops were loaded so I got all my fuel shops. And then I went out and signed back in and it still said 69 or something like that, the competitors and the pickup shops hadn't been loaded yet. So I went and I played Solitaire for a few minutes. When I went back there were 120 Kroger shops, all of the pick up shops and competitor shops had been loaded. I got 3 Target, and 3? Publix, and the pickup shops for all of my regular Krogers that i already had inside and fuel shops scheduled at. As of about 19:00 there were only 60 shops remaining, and all but a couple of Walmart competitor shops were gone, I'm sure they are all gone by now.
My best month in a while.. the July round is going to start early. This round will be complete, or mostly complete before July 10.

Yep. Mine showed up this morning as pending.
Missed out again. I call myself checking and somehow missed everything ????
Anyway, speaking of pick up orders... I can't seem to find an option for making my pick up order in advance at Target. I can do the order tonight, but it says I have to pick it up by end of day tomorrow. And that's not my scheduled day.. I'm afraid I'll forget, or I'll have to find other things for my grandson.

Are you able to reschedule the Target shop to a different day? The competitor shops are usually pretty flexible.

You have 5 days to pick up your order at Target. Their website is a bit misleading as to how soon you must do your Pickup. Call them just to verify. But it's 5 -7 days I believe.
David, last time we had competitor shops I did a bunch of Targets too. They called me and asked when I was going to pick up my order, and told me they would only hold it until end of day. I looked all oer for some way to schedule my pick up date, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to do it.

Melli, nope, they are too far from home to make separate trips to the big city. I have my routes set.

I leave it in the cart and on my scheduled day i place the order. I hate that they don't let you select a day like everyone else does.
Call the location talk with the pickup department. They will confirm they will hold your order 5-7;days. That's been my experience.

Peg, I'm going to do the first one overnight, and pick it up in the morning, then I will place the second order before we go and do my son's shops, and hopefully my second order, for the other Target, will be ready when my son's shops are done. Then I can take all the new toddler clothes to my daughter in law. We might even make it home in time to cook dinner.

Targets are the most convoluted Pickup shops. Having to Download the app. Their Pickup instructions are clear as mud. But I checked twice and although they tell you that you have to pickup your order in 48 hours. They are obligated to hold it at least 5 days. As explained to me by their Pickup supervisor.
Even the actual pickup process upon arrival is jumping through more frivolous hoops.

This is my first time doing these shops. For the pickup shops, do all items have to be food items? I didn't see anything in the instruction regarding this but I could have missed it.

No, you don't have to limit your purchases to just food, I've done many pickups, and it appears you can order just about anything. I've ordered plenty of light bulbs, batteries, kitchen gadgets, pyrex containers, etc. Same goes for the inside shops.
Thank you

There are no Kroger stores near me. However, I have seen a Kroger delivery truck the other day. Biy do I miss the Publix shops even with their stupid department questions.
For Target if you have fresh/refrigerated items in the order they won't hold them for as long.
I didn't get any competitor shops this month, the nearby ones were gone. I had hard time getting pickup and in store on the same day (only one location). But I still managed a nearly equal number.
Anyone else have trouble today ordering fresh produce for pickup at Kroger? There a notice on the website eariler today about difficulty with fresh produce items. They must not have updated the website because fresh items are now available to order.
