You're welcome! 😊 For real I highly recommended this to you a short while back. Totes, tubs, dishpans and wagon will save your vehicle, your time and your back. Plus nothing gets lost or damaged. Good for you! I'm off to start my day! 🎉 Spark safe everybody!!
Great video! I hope you received a tip on the apartment delivery. I’ve taken a 3rd floor, no elevator delivery, with over a 100 items and did not get tipped. My bad for taking it! Thank goodness for my bins. I use two of them however, I leave the lids at home. They just get in my way and haven’t had a need for them.
Bins & laundry baskets help immensely, as long as you don't overload them with too many heavy items. I also love using oversized bags (i.e., Ikea bags or reusable grocery tote bags & and insulated door dash bags). They are great for perishables & lots of grocery bags. I throw them over my shoulders, & then have free hands for other items, including my phone. Minimizing trips & and reducing weight makes the process go more smoothly.
I bought a huge catering bag off Amazon that is great for carrying a lot of bags at once. I can carry it on my shoulder and still have my hands free to carry the rest. And a bonus...it keeps stuff cold too. I also have a collapsible wagon that is great for big orders not going up stairs.
@@babsblan I may end up grabbing a collapsible wagon. That sounds like a great idea! I just used the tub for the first time in this video. Game changer. Made the bigger drop offs soo much quicker.
I got tired of that nonsense so now i dont ask for bags at all and they dont check my order when leaving because i have no bags i look like a regular customer. I use costco flat boxes and put the customers groceries in it they seem to love it and they dont get charged for any bags. Plus all items are clearly shown in the photo when i send the proof of delivery.
The truck has allowed me to grab bigger bulk orders! Right now, it’s the only vehicle we have to work with. So we do the best we can and are grateful for the opportunity.
My walmart i do spark at has the bags behind customer service. You have to wait in line then show your ID and ask for the bags. When leaving they scan 3 of your items to verify correct items and sometimes at checkout as well so you can get checked twice.
The 3 Walmart stores I shop the most have different paper bag distribution policies One has paper Spark bags on trees, so we just grab what we need One has paper bags guarded by Walmart associates we call Bag Police, or Bag Nazis, so we have to ask them for bags They never open enough cases of paper bags, and don't restock paper bags quickly enough, so we have to wait, or use the standard paper bags without handles These low level Walmart associates will often give us dirty looks, and attitude if they believe we're asking for too many paper Spark bags We never have extra paper Spark bags for long as many Walmart workers that pick, and pack curbside orders don't bag many items, bags are over-loaded, or ripped, so we have to use our extra bags One store makes us wait at customer service for paper Spark bags. which can be a long process as they're often busy with customers, under-staffed, missing in action, or they're doing nothing, yet ignoring customers and Spark drivers When we shop this store we often use our own paper Spark bags, and bag more conservatively as wait times for paper Spark bags are so long Cart checks at all stores are random, with the exception of orders with alcohol which always trigger a cart check We're not asked for ID for any reasons
@ashleylynn8489 My store asks for ID because they have had scammer issues and believe or not i have had a spark order that had alcohol in it and it didn't trigger a cart check which it's supposed to.
@@Missippidashing boo to that lol. If you were to sell one what would the price be. I know you have different pieces varying in time spent an color so I know that goes into pricing. Any way you can do a video on just your art pieces? Reason I ask is even thou I know very little of the art world and suck at even more 🤣Id like to possibly buy a piece. Of course I gotta confer with my wife thou lol
@@samuelwilkinson6487 for sure. My drawings are fairly large. 18’22 or so. Ranging in price from $1000 to $2200 depending on difficulty and detail. Thanks so much for showing interest!
@@samuelwilkinson6487 I typically charge 2 to 3 dollars per square inch. Then I add on the framing and matting. My pieces are priced around $1000 to $2000 depending on size and difficulty.
@@JayRock_-nx7sq not at all. I set a limit to what I’m willing to accept personally. Typically only orders $15 and above. With milage that gives me $1.50 or above per mile. Good example of lowest I’ll usually take is $15 order with 7 mile drive. Everything else I deny. Of coarse there are acceptions. Example $11 order 1 mile drive shop and deliver for 4 items. I might take that because of how easy it is to grab. Depending on your market, set your own limits. Figure out the best times to go out. Breakfast lunch or dinner shifts. Then schedule around those. You got this!

I wouldn't go back to that apartment,

Have not seen new recent content are you still doing spark?
Your videos are great! I used to live in Pascagoula Mississippi!
@@steveanderson1583 love
Love the coast!
I went last week and got $89 for 2 hours one shop and deliver was 3 gallons of paint package of rollers and paintbrushes for $34

Using grid Wise. Have you got a notification saying that your account is linked to another account?
Hows it profitable in a truck ?
The truck has allowed me to grab bigger bulk orders! Right now, it’s the only vehicle we have to work with. So we do the best we can and are grateful for the opportunity.
I keep bags with me & while im shopping, i place items in the bag as I’m shopping. Scan the QR code and I’m out!!
Do we have to pay quarterly taxes in Mississippi?
No. You choose. Quarterly or yearly.
My walmart i do spark at has the bags behind customer service. You have to wait in line then show your ID and ask for the bags. When leaving they scan 3 of your items to verify correct items and sometimes at checkout as well so you can get checked twice.
The 3 Walmart stores I shop the most have different paper bag distribution policies
One has paper Spark bags on trees, so we just grab what we need
One has paper bags guarded by Walmart associates we call Bag Police, or Bag Nazis, so we have to ask them for bags
They never open enough cases of paper bags, and don't restock paper bags quickly enough, so we have to wait, or use the standard paper bags without handles
These low level Walmart associates will often give us dirty looks, and attitude if they believe we're asking for too many paper Spark bags
We never have extra paper Spark bags for long as many Walmart workers that pick, and pack curbside orders don't bag many items, bags are over-loaded, or ripped, so we have to use our extra bags
One store makes us wait at customer service for paper Spark bags. which can be a long process as they're often busy with customers, under-staffed, missing in action, or they're doing nothing, yet ignoring customers and Spark drivers
When we shop this store we often use our own paper Spark bags, and bag more conservatively as wait times for paper Spark bags are so long

Do you look for at least $1 a mile?
So I got a question unrelated to Spark...Have you sold any of your artwork yet?
Not a single piece 😀😂😭.

Did you quit gig work?
Didn’t quit!!
Question is it OK to decline bad offer like 20 miles for 10 dollars?
Of coarse. Turn down as many as yu please.
@Missippidashing thanks it won't get you deactivate if you decline bad offers

I was surprised you took that $11 offer but it was it 2 items for less then a mile! I would’ve taken it as well 😃
😅 The tubs are great for a younger strong guy 😂 like you, but definitely not for this gal in her sixties. Believe me I tried 😔
The collapsible cart may be the next way to go for easier delivery! I’m thinking about investing in one of those next!
@@Missippidashing I have that and it's great. But still can't handle the heavy items. I have minor rotator cuff tears in both shoulders. 🤦
Where is a good place in Mississippi to work spark
Pass Christian on the coast. Jackson. Tupelo: Meridian: Any larger to mid size city will do fine.
I’m near Clarksdale am I used that Gridwise app you was talking about an it’s saying busiest place is midtown is that how it works
Bec it’s like super slow here I came from Georgia to here in Mississippi for a couple months an tryna find a area around me that’s alittle busy
@@Missippidashing Sounds good, man. Any update on new videos? How's the art going?
