Instacart prohibits shoppers from giving customers paper receipts from the store, obscuring the markups many pay for groceries.

An Instacart customer said she discovered the app’s higher prices cost her nearly $100 after accidentally seeing the store’s paper receipt::undefined

Maybe it’s regional, but Instacart use in my area straight up says which stores are priced the same or which are priced at a premium when you click on it. It isn’t hidden at all.

If they’re honest about it then it’s dumb to complain. I dunno though, I can’t afford to spend extra and have to get my own groceries
