today i ordered walmart delivery for groceries, it was actually my first time using it. i ordered $54.12 worth of stuff and left a $20 tip for the driver. however, i realized after bringing the groceries inside that it looked like they had also given me someone else’s order, which was about $40 worth of stuff. either that or the person who put my order together gave me extras on accident (for example i ordered only one pack of chicken and beef each, but got four different things each and two different things of beef, all from different brands. but i did also get things that i didn’t order at all, like berries and microwaveable breakfast sandwiches, which makes me think it was someone else’s order).

i felt kind of guilty taking this person’s food, but i don’t think i could return it esp not with the risk of covid. i was a little anxious about this at first but then realized that there wasn’t anything i could do about it, and hopefully the person who ordered it got a refund/their food delivered to them somehow.

what i’m worried about now is that, since the delivery driver had to carry some extra bags that i didn’t order, is if my tip is a little low now? the combined total of the stuff i didn’t order for combined with the stuff i did order is around $90, so my around 35% tip drops to a little over 20% (even tho i didn’t pay for the stuff i didn’t order—i hope this makes sense, i’m just trying to account for the total worth of what the driver had to carry). i would be ok with that if we weren’t in a pandemic, but i tip at least 30% now.

does this matter? should i increase the tip to include the other items (even tho i didn’t order them, the delivery driver still had to carry a few more bags so i feel like i need to cover for that)? walmart’s website says you can edit the tip in your purchase history, but i can’t find the option to do so.

i try to make sure that i tip well because i used to think that i was tipping fine, but i looked back at past grubhub/uber eats orders and i realized i wasn’t tipping as well as i thought i was, so i am trying to do better now. i don’t want to be that one person that leaves a bad tip. this is also why i don’t order grubhub/do grocery delivery like this often bc now i get so obsessive over tipping lol (that and that it’s expensive), I got anxious over the tip last time I ordered grubhub as well

i could be just overthinking this but i appreciate any input
