You and wifey are exceptional. By definition most others can't be. Your link shows Sears carts not real carts.

WTF is wrong with Sears carts? Their ponchos are excellent!
Every store used to have them.Now I have to push that ugly cart through the whole long store from one corner to the other, diagonally, and then back, with something like two bars of butter, a Tamari sause and some ice cream.

Heck, bring back the good old days when you used to hand the guy your list and he'd fetch it all for you.I'm just thankful when I get one with four wheels that all go the direction you want them to.
Goddamn Piggly Wiggly. Curse them.

Some stores have small carts, but these are often all taken.
It's the kind of shopping cart commonly found at every grocery store. What on earth do the ones you use look like?
Have you never spent $140 at the grocery before?
I wouldn't be so sure about these carts.
- For 140$ you get 40lbs of fabricated steel with implied chrome plating ("chrome finish"). If truly chrome (or nickel) I'd expect just the plating alone to have an OEM cost > 140$ for something that large.
- 140$ doesn't include an optional/extra child seat.
- It ships preassembledl by common carrier. I can't imagine shipping costs for this being trivial. Certainly a substantial portion of the initial cost.
- The most recent product review gave the large cart one star of five.
- And there's this "note": Warning, this product can expose you to chemicals, including lead which are known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information go to . . . . You feel safe putting food and kids in contact with this thing?
No, this is clearly a Sears cart . . . Or maybe more appropriately these days, a Temu cart.
But then we cook and mostly eat at home. We have some neighbors that eat out almost nightly. They probably have low grocery bills. His scotch expenses are probably higher than my grocery bills.
Her fridge is empty... except maybe for a bottle of white.
Pissing the money down the toilet.
you go very frequently like urbanites.
We aren't urban. I try to shop once per week with an ice chest and ice packs. We do have a Piggly Wiggy Express about 8 miles away that I occasionally go to if I forgot something. I think it was once a Time Saver and is pretty compact. We have another store about 8 miles in the other direction. Neither of those are really full size stores.
When we lived in the burbs, We were about 5 minutes from everything. We are enjoying the lack of traffic and hustle and bustle. We have a country club restaurant that is golf cart close, but pricy. We occasionally eat there if we like the lunch or dinner special.
small, college town where there are two decent grocery choices. We don't miss leaving Atlanta traffic behind and live in a small golf community where the cart is frequently used for nearby transportation.
Our EV! ;)
I use the golf cart once or twice a week. My wife uses it pretty much daily and our dog rides shotgun.
