- Join me for another Walmart Spark ride along on this Monday July 1 2024. We talk scammers as usual and how to approach store staff and managers so they'll act on your behalf. #ridealongs #walmartsparkdriver #vlog #sparkdeliverydriver #walmartspark
Man of many hats . So refreshing to hear someone talk good about Spark. I'm VERY new at this and most creator's on RUclips hate Walmart, so they don't like Sparking ❤
I just started spark as well; I am learning.
Thanks! There's a lot of bias toward Walmart and as a corporation I don't care for them. But I can't let my own feelings get in the way of my goals. They are the best option for me to clear this debt and I can't deny how many people shop there.
@@irisd5029 We can learn together
When they started doing ID checks I surprisingly started getting more orders
Funny how that works!
Wow, I will be happy when they start check ID’s in Phila. In Philly they take two orders on would be in the trunk and he go and do shop
Yeah, my store stopped checking. Lol.. they gave it a solid 4 days.
It all comes down to numbers the wear and tear on vehicle is often overlooked I appreciate your candid real world thoughts
100%. That's why I share every time I make a repair to a vehicle. Those costs can break a driver.
I tried to sell on eBay, but it did work good for me. I sell in Poshmark- part time.
I tried Poshmark way back when it was clothes only. Wasn't my cup of tea. Glad you're successful there!
Pick Van Dyke wants you to bring back the ebay videos.
I can do some.
Wish the Walmarts by me checked ID'S. They haven't started yet. Hopefully soon.
Have a chat with your store's OGP coach (manager)
@@firststatedelivery I will do that
You need to go work for Walmart. You're so worried about issues that isn't any of your business. You need to work directly for the company as a manager.
It is my business and Walmart would never hire me at a management position. I think too much.
Yes, what products sell well on Ebay? I am interested in starting a store. I do need to know all about the shipping also, and how do you handle returns?
Returns: 30 days, no questions asked. I get maybe 2 a month because I fully disclose everything.
Shipping: focus on smaller, easy to ship items to start. Buy yourself a stock of shipping bags, boxes and bubble wrap. A good rule of thumb is less than 1 lb. = $5, 1+ - 3 lbs. = $10, 3+ lbs = $15 ship cost.
What products sell on ebay? Way to broad of a question. There's a market for everything. The most successful new sellers have a curious mind and research everything that catches their eye and outside their box. Once you develop a niche for yourself things will snowball.
@@firststatedelivery Thank you
Monday was very busy July 1. Still steady today.
I only went out for 2 hours late today. Wasn't bad.
Yes uber eats and door dash are getting to be a pain in the butt. I do have spark open.
With Spark you really have to be at the store to get decent orders. Otherwise you're getting the scraps.
@@firststatedelivery thanks.
I stated letting employees know about the scam & if I get to talk to a resident when I drop off the delivery
If I was a customer of Walmart and my Spark driver told me that Walmart was allowing dangerous people to deliver groceries and break into my house the first thing I would do was call Walmart and let them know my Spark driver says that you Walmart are allowing dangerous people on the Spark app. Walmart will notify Spark about this and you will be deactivated for something you have no proof that there are scammers.
If I was a Walmart customer and a spark driver told me that Walmart was allowing dangerous people to make deliveries in the spark app, the first thing I would do was to call Walmart and Spark to let them know a spark driver had told me about dangerous people being allowed on the Spark app. Do you think you will be deactivated or not, you would have to show proof of your claims.
I don't bother customers with scammer talk. I don't think they're in danger with these guys aside from receiving warm perishables.
Everyone can complain about the scammers, but this issue is not going away. Our country has had an illegal immigration issue longer than any of us has been alive. Will probably still be an issue one hundred years from now.
It is not going away but viewers seem to love the content
So am I guessing you would rather deliever groceries instead of fast food.
100%. I drive half the miles for the same money or better. It's all market dependent, of course.
@@firststatedelivery Don't forget you can deduct the miles.
I think we have scammers at the Walmart near me. So I end up going to another Walmart . Not the 5 or 6 illegal that are at the other store near me. I live in a small state. 7 Walmarts in my state
Yeah we don't have many here either. 7-8.
You said there were no alleged scammers at your store today, why didn't you get better orders then if there were no bots there today? I know you are going to say it was a slow day so how do you know the difference between a slow day or when the bots are used? Is it because when you see other drivers getting orders it must be bots.
There were none that I could see. I'll admit that I'm making huge assumptions. I don't know for sure that these scammers are using bots but when they're there it's terribly slow for the rest of us.
Hey Jim good to see you Bro! Found you looking for current Spark content. Do you still sell on EBay?
Wes
Yes I do! Ebay, Walmart and Amazon.
@@firststatedelivery That’s good me too accept Amazon.
Is there a point where your debt is not paid off but you stop the gig work because you could make more with your time working more on your business? Like at what point can u make more than $120 giving spark 8 hours and car wear by putting more time into business?
There is a capacity to the output of resale. With our facilities now, we are nearly maxed out. I will eventually scale back delivery and turn my focus back to Amazon. When I say Amazon, I mean the big 3 (Amazon, ebay, and Walmart). Today was the first day, basically this year, that I got to travel and source retail liquidation a bit. All of my sourcing this year has been online. I could stop driving today, go back to paying myself $1200 a week, and pay down my debt much slower. I am at least at the point now where I can chip away at debt if I were to pay myself. I'm shooting for October/November to make that focus switch and end my debt journey with a big 4Q. If all goes according to plan I won't be delivering groceries in December. In January, I'll continue delivering as extra cash flow when needed for Amazon and/or paying for extra stuff like home repair or vacations, etc. By next June I'd like to be in a warehouse. But this debt needs to go first.
I like this app & make money faster.
It's the best app for small town sellers especially.
I work the Spark app too, but I don't mingle with other drivers in the parking lot. I'm not looking to make friends. Don't care what drivers, including the so-called scammers, are doing. I mind my business and focus on my earnings. That is what every single driver should be doing instead of minding someone else's business.
Really don't mind anyone working that are following the rules like we do and getting vetted. You have no idea who these people are and is a definite safety issue for the customers and I have seen them keeping groceries in a hot van for over 20 minutes before they decide to leave and deliver so they don't care about the customers groceries as well.
@richardconard9618 It's not yours, mine or any other drivers business what other drivers are doing. The same can be said about safety or holding groceries. We don't work for Walmart. It's not our issue to worry about. Make your money and let Walmart/Spark worry about all their problems.
I understand where you're coming from. I like being friendly with the other drivers. The way my scammers operate takes money from my pocket and my wife's pocket. That makes it my business.
@firststatedelivery Not really. It's not your company. Like it's not Aaron's (Another tuber that complains a lot about the illegal workers.
Unfortunately, scammers, illegals, or whatever you want to call them isn't a new problem. Our country has had an illegal immigration problem longer than any of us has been alive. It's not going away and will still be an issue when we are all gone.
