Just an fyi for Meijer shoppers.
I always tip my shoppers. But I want to make sure that shoppers who shop for Meijer know that they might see no tips or less tips than normal. Meijer charges a preauth hold of 4.95 (plus a percentage of your order total as pre auth) and now are doing preauth for tips. Two shops on two days (I forgot to get some items) led to just over $50 in hold fees that took 5 days to clear in my bank account.
I’m unable to drive due to disability so I relay on delivery but I just started to get hit the by holds. My last delivery driver said that she is getting less tips and more deliveries together now. I can’t imagine how this affects the disabled and elderly on a fixed income.
This is maddening for both the shopper and the customers.
