A shopping cart is a push trolley used by customers in supermarkets to transport groceries. There are different types, including portable baskets and customer-owned carts. Some have seats for children and motorized versions are available for those with disabilities. Stores often provide designated areas for cart storage and some require a coin deposit to prevent theft and damage.
A shopping trolley, also referred to as a shopping cart, shopping trolley or carriage, is a push trolley used by customers in a supermarket to transport their groceries to the checkout or their vehicle. The shopping cart is almost always provided by the shop itself. A small portable shopping basket is an alternative to using a shopping cart, particularly in smaller stores or when you only need to gather a few things.
Another type of shopping cart is one that belongs to the customer. These are designed a little differently than a store shopping cart and may have a small basket and a telescoping handle. These are often used by people who need to walk to the supermarket or who find it difficult to carry heavy bags. These carts are often foldable for easy storage when not in use.
A supermarket-supplied shopping trolley typically has a large basket attached to four caster wheels, with a small basket in front for a child to sit on. Some shopping baskets are designed with room for two children or have a chair for an older child. Some may even have a small toy car attached for the kids to ride while the parents go shopping, which keeps the kids safe and entertained. Shopping carts are usually equipped with belts to tie down children; It is important that children drive the trolley correctly, as falling could easily cause injury.
A shopping cart can also be a motorized version, with a type of mobility scooter-like chair attached to it. These are also usually supplied by a shop, albeit in limited quantities. These are useful for customers with injuries or disabilities or who have difficulty walking in a large supermarket.
Customers are generally allowed to leave their shopping cart in the store’s parking lot. Some stores provide designated areas where customers can place carts to prevent damage to vehicles, and store employees will come out during the day and collect the carts. In many European countries it is common practice that a customer has to insert a coin into the handle of the trolley to unlock it from the other trolleys. When the customer returns the cart, he can withdraw his coin. This helps prevent damage to vehicles from carts left in the parking lot, and also serves to deter theft and saves store employees from having to walk around the parking lot and round them up.
