The also on HN Instacart post by a user says:
"Did not receive an email about this change of policy. Not only did I not receive this email, neither did my wife nor a colleague, who also is a Instacart Express user."
+ in this thread "A few days ago, my gf started complaining about some sort of $3 extra charges she noticed."
This makes the 71 user remark looking suspicious, except the 71 were based on some geographical selection error.
- benatkin 14y agoThat does sound suspicious. I thought there were 71 total who bought the deal, but it does say "71 of these emails" which seems to indicate that it's a proper subset of the total emails that were to go out. It seems like an unusual coincidence. Another possibility would be that the selection was based on when the orders were placed, and that the three of them all bought it at the same time because they decided together to buy it.
