How do grocery substitutions affect the offer shown in an ad?

Instacart's storefront documentation lets customers specify replacements or request refunds for unavailable items. The advertised basket can therefore differ from the fulfilled one. Product creative and landing pages can explain substitution choices, while analysis separates the original selection from what was actually purchased.

Why separate local grocery delivery from shipped pantry products?

Whole Foods Market describes grocery delivery or pickup separately from shipped pantry essentials and catering. These fulfillment routes have different purchase contexts. Organizing the offer around the relevant route can make basket comparisons more meaningful, without assuming that one photographed assortment is available through every route or location.

What location check matters before promoting grocery delivery?

Walmart's pickup and delivery help page asks customers to check whether their address qualifies and choose a delivery timeslot. For a local delivery campaign, the corresponding business question is whether the landing journey checks serviceability. An advertised retailer's presence does not establish delivery coverage for every person who sees an ad.

Why inspect the completed grocery basket rather than only the cart?

Instacart's help page describes item changes, replacements and refunds during shopping, with completed changes shown in the Item Summary. Comparing that final purchase record with the initial selection can explain basket differences. It does not turn delivery fees, refunds or an abandoned cart into additional product revenue.

Put it in context

Is this the mean AOV across all orders?

No. It is the median of account-level average order values. Each account receives equal weight; it is not a pooled average of every order.

Benchmark scope

Benchmark snapshot read 11 October 2026.

Equal-weight account aggregate · Reporting period not supplied

Median and middle 50% of account-level average order values. Each account value is purchase ROAS multiplied by cost per purchase in USD. Successful classifications, including manual corrections, with positive finite spend, purchases, ROAS and cost per purchase. Accounts are counted once with equal weight. Quartiles use linear interpolation. Root cohorts include direct root classifications and their child categories; exact-child cohorts exclude parent and sibling categories. The source selects the highest-spend coverage row per account among snapshots dated within the preceding 30 days; the underlying reporting period is not supplied. This is a dated aggregate advertising-data snapshot, not business-wide AOV or a census. Comparison colors describe position in the account AOV distribution, not profitability. Your entered amount stays on this page.
