With Shipt you can set substitutions to three options: (1) you tell them to never substitute; (2) you tell them to use their best judgment; or (3) contact you when an item is unavailable. I have it set to the third option. As part of last night's order, the shopper texted me that something was unavailable, proposed an alternative, and with it texted me a pic of the similar item. I gave it the thumbs up.
My first experience on fruits was that the shopper chose well. Deli and meat sections are fully available, but I haven't used them yet; will need to use deli on the next order.
