I’ve been a loyal Blinkit customer for quite some time now, often placing orders multiple times a day. In fact, I can’t remember the last time I ran out of groceries without placing an order on Blinkit. The convenience of doorstep delivery has been a game-changer, and I truly appreciate the speed and reliability of their service.
But recently, I’ve noticed something that’s been building up at home – paper bags. Every single order, no matter how small, arrives neatly packed in a paper bag. While I completely understand the reasoning behind this – it’s a great way to keep things organized and safe during transit – I’ve found that, with doorstep delivery, I often don’t really need an additional bag.
Now, don’t get me wrong, I really value your attention to detail and the care taken in packaging. But after months of frequent orders, I’m starting to feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of paper bags accumulating at home. In fact, I’ve got so many now that I’m running out of space to store them and not sure what to do with them all.
So, I began to wonder: What if Blinkit made paper bags optional? 🤔
Think about it – if customers could choose whether or not they want a bag with their order, it could help cut down on unnecessary waste, save costs for Blinkit and reduce the number of bags piling up in our homes. For those of us who have reusable bags or don’t need additional packing, we could opt out.
It could also open up an opportunity to remove delivery or handling charges, making things even more cost-effective for customers who don’t mind carrying their groceries inside. And best of all, it’s a win for the environment. 🌍
It’s just a thought, but I believe that by offering the option, Blinkit could reduce waste, save on costs, and create a more eco-friendly shopping experience for customers like me.
In any case, I’m grateful for the amazing service you provide, Blinkit – keep up the great work! 🙏
Why this post? - here’s an image of the stack of bags that I have right now in one place, and I have some more in my car and some I had to discard.
