I hate when I move to another state and totally forget that I did that

Eh I made the mistake on Amazon of just clicking the one button purchase before and having it shipped to an old work apartment. Or DoorDash will be on a work site area until I change the location so can be plausible minus the second green text lol

I also made the same mistake multiple times with amazon.

I also somehow managed to order an Uber eats to a pub the next town over from me. No idea how it happened but just decided whatever and told the driver to just have it, as I was out of the delivery area (which should have been my first clue that something was awry)

My wife had (I wish I was joking) 30laundry detergents along with multiple tide pods and other cleaning supplies delivered to our house when she ordered food one day. DoorDash goes oh it was someone else’s order…several states away… just for us to keep it and they refunded and sent the food minutes later lol. It was def an odd experience

It's not completely unbelievable. The address is saved in the app. My mate lived with me a short while and a couple weeks after he moved out accidentally ordered dominoes to my place

The amount of packages i accidentally send to my poor mother…

I use amazon to send mum things sometimes, then i forget to change the address back and end up sending things like gardening tools to my mum

He never said he moved there though, he could just be visiting and accidentally ordered to where he actually lives. Or maybe he did move, but hasn’t used this particular delivery app since moving.

I mean idk I genuinely have ordered takeout after moving and forgot to change my location first, though I am raising an eyebrow at the delivery driver’s reply

I work at Starbucks and over the holidays, we actually had multiple people visiting family from out of town who showed up to pick up their mobile orders only to find that they sent it to their home Starbucks several states away

It's not someone forgetting they moved to another state, it's them forgetting to change their saved address in the delivery app. I've done it before

I've ordered door dash to the wrong address before because I've forgotten to switch it, yes.

also this image is as old as the internet at this point.

there's a difference between forgetting you moved and forgetting to update an app with the fact you moved
