I take the $3 orders sometimes if it is slow and it is less than a mile, but I am not doing all these BS 12mi $9, 7mi $5 etc ones. Also I've worked at Walmart and often those milk half gallon jugs are in overstock in the backroom cooler. Frozen and Dairy departments are often understaffed and they do not work the steel in the back like they should or it is just sitting on a pallet or cart waiting to be worked.

Hey Chuck, I recently retired and am going to start Dashing to occupy my extra time. I've done it a few days and I did pretty well. I Dashed at night that was somewhat difficult finding address/apartments in the dark! I'm 63 years old so I think I'm going to leave the night time Dashing to the younger Dashers. I think the morning, afternoon and early evening would be better for me. Do you think Dashing during day light hours is as profitable as night time Dashing? I also noticed that you always include in your pics of the items you dropped off always include your delivery bag. Is this something you do for a reason? Just curious! Hey, I also noticed that when you pick up orders at places like McDonalds and Taco Bell you go inside of the restaurant as opposed to the Drive-Thru. Do you have a reason for this? I was just curious about that too. Do you have any advice for older people just starting out Dashing? I really enjoy your videos and will be watching them as you post them. Thanks again for sharing your experience Dashing, as I have already learned a lot of good ideas and knowledge from watching you on your daily Dashes. I appreciate any advice you have and greatly appreciate your time!😂 Regards, Brad Bowie Tacoma, Washington

Don’t deliver $2 orders. They want you to feel like “since I’m not getting anything i miles well take these bad offers” that’s what they are counting on. When you take $2 orders you let them know that such price is ok. No order and I mean no order should be $2 to deliver especially in the economy we live in. It also doesn’t balance out if you take bad offers as they will keep sending them to you. And maybe just before your 12 hours are up they hit you with good orders. But you have to work beyond 9 hours to get those good offers once you start taking bad offers or even decent offers.

Dear D.A.A , some helpful tips. I see you get a lot of low offers and I know how you can drastically improve your offers. 1. The biggest tip of all! Do not leave your DoorDash app set to accepting orders while driving on the highway or anyplace far from restaurants. Set to pause or end your dash if your last delivery leaves you in a ¹dead zone. ¹dead zones is where DoorDash and other delivery apps send you trash orders. This is because they prioritize offers to drivers in close proximity to the store with the offer. This being the case, when trash orders come from one of these stores and all the drivers in close proximity to this store decline it, it gets sent to ¹dead zones. 2. If you like taking out the trash, or tanking your AR, keep your app on in dead zones. If you don't like trash stay close as you can to your preferred restaurants and park it. If that restaurant happens to be dead you'll get offers from other places. Again that rule of proximity still applies here if the restaurant you parked near is dead, you'll get trash from a restaurant further away where the drivers near that one declined it.
