I know that the person who invented mini grocery carts for children meant well. Obviously that person didn’t have to ever, you know, actually grocery shop with two children.
(The same goes for the inventor of the race-car cart. Great inventions guys. Really great ideas. Me? Sarcastic? No way.)

The race car cart SUCKS because it’s inevitable that the family walking in front of us gets it. Or it’s too heavy to maneuver. Or our store has decided that you can’t take it to the parking lot and you have to transfer your two year old to a regular cart at the checkout lane, making him cry.
The best solution? Shop alone.

I hate those stupid little carts. Getting the backs of your ankles rammed with one of them will scar you for life. Seriously. I am cringing thinking about it. My kids don’t even ask anymore.

I guess it’s hard not to be sarcastic. I get your point. The “aerodynamics” of the grocery carts and the relatively wide grocery lanes are invitations for kids to start racing the carts around. That is why the inventor of the grocery cart that has a seat for kids is one of the wisest men of our time.
