What do pigs, Walmart Spark deliveries, and a home security alert have in common? 🤯

In this episode, The Silver Dasher takes you along on one of the most unexpected Walmart Spark days yet — featuring loose pigs in a neighborhood, nonstop shopping orders, and a real-life interruption when a home security alarm goes off at my parents’ house.

This video shows what gig work is really like for retirees doing Walmart Spark and DoorDash — unpredictable, sometimes challenging, but often profitable and full of surprising moments. From shopping order decisions, mile-to-dollar calculations, pharmacy pickups, and Spark incentives, to balancing family responsibilities while self-employed, this is real life behind the wheel.

If you’re:

• A retiree looking for extra income
• A Walmart Spark or DoorDash driver
• Curious about gig work after retirement
• Interested in shopping orders vs. pickups
• Or just enjoy real delivery stories

👉 This one’s for you.
