Having used instacart (through Costco) and walmart grocery delivery almost exclusively for the past 10 months.. I'm more amazed at how cheap it is, and I'm a bit worried that employees are not getting paid enough.

Costco is probably the more 'reasonable' one. They mark up the products probably 5-10%. So this one I feel that the delivery people are probably being paid ok.. although my nearest costco is 16 miles away (about 25min).. so it kind of feels like a steal to be able to get delivery from them for what feels like not a whole lot more.

Walmart is closer, but there are no markups.. and I pay whatever $10/mo for free delivery from them. Order multiple times a month.

I'm honestly not sure I'm going to go back to the stores as often even when things are normal.
