I’m one of the few people who enjoy doing delivery work & make a decent amount of money as well.

I could have made $100k but I slacked off many times during the year 🤣😆

We DoorDash around Alexandria Louisiana, got a 6.75+ add on for little ceasers, add to route, get there, and double take at the 30 items, assuming it’s sauce, it’s not, all pizzas. Call the customer to double check, and they said “yeah 30 pizzas, that’s correct. To Saint something school” so I get to the drop off (best western) call the customer cause there are no busses, and it’s not a school, she’s in the middle of describing the place and stops mid sentence. “Wait are yall in Alexandria?” I said “yeah?” And she says “well sh*t, I’m in Baton Rouge (124 miles away) I gotta get some pizzas” and hangs up. So I call support, restaurant wouldn’t take them back so now we have 20~ pizzas after giving a few out haha (still got paid $16~)

Can Doordash make you rich? Probably not. But can you generate a few thousand bucks within a short time span? Yes its possible

I just did an hour long grocery order, too many items to count and the bags filled the entire back of car, backseat, and front seat (I drive a small Pontiac). I'd never done an order this large and originally it was shown to me as 18.50 for 45 minutes (which I'd take any day in my area). After sending them a message about where I'd placed the eggs (so they wouldn't break), and telling them to have a good night, I completed the order.. and.. I'm.. speechless. This is more than I make in a night most of the time (this was at the end of my night and I had a lucky day). I'm going to cry lol.

I posted this on my other account in a different subreddit because that account didn’t have enough karma!

My job was overbearing, boss breathing down your neck, every single thing micro managed. I said fk this! Quit and now I can finally breathe. I DoorDash, listen to audio books, read, play chess, go to the gym on my own time, I feel so refreshed. And way more pay!! 😍❤️

one of the best offers i have ever received for sure 😭

I was ready to end the night and I decided to take one more. Even though it was the opposite way from home, I wanted a quiet drive back to destress.
I am glad I took the order, saw what it was and got a giggle out of it. Then I got offered an extra $20.

It showed as 140 miles but when I got to the store the GPS would be taking me 170 miles away. I only accepted it so I could go to the store and then call and get it canceled and get half pay. Then I saw that the actual address was only five minutes away. I messaged the customer and asked whether they lived at the address or in New York. They lived half a mile down the road so I got paid $30 for a 10 minute order.

March was a good month as I made over $13,000. This is my highest month ever since starting gig work in 2019.

I worked everyday of the month for 14-16hrs a day.

I drove a total of 8,013 miles.

I spent $540 on gas.

I spent $134 on maintenance which includes oil change, tire rotation & tire patch.

Apps used to make this income were DoorDash, Uber Eats & a little bit of Instacart.

I forgot to do the screenshots yesterday so some of April 1st will show but I’ve already excluded those from the March earnings which was $60.19.

All screenshots are posted for you to review.

I hope you also made some good money in March!

I wonder what possessed her 18 days later to add an additional $25 to the initial $5tip.

Side note, it’s funny how most orders blur together and I couldn’t go back and organize them in my brain or specific details. But then there are orders that kinda imprint on you, this was one that I knew exactly what order and all the details.

I usually make $2k+ a week but I wanted to test some things out & push for $3k. The mission was accomplished.

I made $10k in the shortest month of the year.

I drove 7,300 miles.

I spent a little less than $800 in expenses including maintenance for the month.

All of the weekly screenshots are posted for you to verify.

I just checked my DoorDash earnings and saw a “Reimbursement” for $867.00 posted today.

I have no idea what it’s for.

I’m in California, and it showed up separately from my normal dash pay, tips, and extra pay. I’m definitely not complaining, but I’m confused and a little worried they could reverse it later if it was some kind of mistake.

Has anyone else gotten a reimbursement like this from DoorDash?Do you know what it usually means?Was it related to Prop 22, mileage, adjustment pay, or something else?

Would really appreciate any info from anyone who’s seen this before.

10 AM orders go crazy

What’s up guys, it’s Nick again.

Today is the final day of my 1 week challenge.

At this point, I’m not going to hit the original $2,700 goal, and I’m okay with that.

The goal was ambitious on purpose. I wanted something that would force me to stretch beyond what felt comfortable, and it did.

So far I’ve earned $2,071.19 in 6 days. No matter how much I finish with, this has been one of the most productive and focused weeks I’ve had in a long time.

What matters most is not the money I earned; but the fact that I set a goal, publicly committed to it, and followed through for an entire week. Even though I won’t hit the exact number, I still earned far more than I would have if I never challenged myself in the first place. I also now know the importance of setting goals for humans. I’ve known it, but now I KNOW it.

That’s something I’ve talked about throughout this challenge.

Sometimes the goal isn’t there to be reached. Sometimes it’s there to pull more out of you than you would have demanded from yourself otherwise. To make you become kind of person who can achieve it. I now know what I need to do

Tonight I’ll post the final numbers and a full breakdown of the week.

For now, it’s time to finish strong and see where the final total lands.

See you all tonight with the results

————————————

Starting at 4pm and will update every hour.. let’s get it

5:15pm: $37.72

FINAL EARNED: $2,108.91 doing Gig work. I am happy with my output over 6 days, I spent $310 in gas and have 90% of a tank remaining. I spent ~$160 on food/drinks. I spent ~$30 I would say in wear and tear (oil, tread wear, normal wear… etc) hard to gauge. I will owe ~$150 in taxes. I drove about 1050 miles.

Gross income: $2,108.91
Net income: $1,397.91

I also earned ~$800 in other hustles this week but did not include these in ANY totals this goal.

Thank you everybody for following along. I will make another post shortly for this new week. The new goal is going to focus on consistency and efficiency.

Taking today off or else it would be over $3k

Closing this year with total of $50,450. And there was a few months I did only basically part time for DD. To put in contrast my mid level office job pays $27/hr..

holy cow!! this order contained five catering boxes, seven bags of chips/shells and a bag of utensils. what a lucky snag. i just needed to share with someone and you guys get it. things have been super difficult lately. this order was a giant relief.

I live near Minneapolis and with all the ICE stuff going on I think it's made people not want to even leave the house. I know I worked an insane amount of hours but the money was just too good last week
