Fun with Shopping Carts

   HA HA HA!! I think in our past lives, we must’ve been siblings, Dave. I’ve always been The Girl That Gets the Cart With the Funky Wheel. Every single time. Never fails. I’ll even break up the long stack of carts and pull a cart out of a middle, and it will be the Funky Wheel Cart.

   Btw, chevy.com looks nice! (But should we worry that the first car we see when we click that link is a Corvette? Is that some kind of subliminal message? :wtf:)

   I usually manage to pick the one with both the squeakiness, and the lovely wobbly wheel. This, surprisingly enough, never prevents me from walking out w/at least $30 worth of crap.

   Chevy.com looks very nice, Dave. I’d be even more excited for you if I knew what layout tables were. 😆

   I usually get the super hot rod type of cart, no problemo.

   On the Chevy site ➡ cool, looks just like the real thing …

   But use tables okay, let’s not give in to those heathen css bastards. 😕

   It seems as though shopping carts or trolleys (as we call them in the U.K) are indeed hated by all.
   There’s nothing worse than finding out that the trolley you spent the time and effort to select and unlock, is in fact a heap of shit.
   As you approach the entrance to the supermarket, the fun begins.
   Maybe the trolley has a slight tendancy to steer to the left, maybe to the right but don’t think that the problem will get better, in fact, as you progress towards the magnetic “travelator” and the point of no return, seriously consider abandoning your shopping project.

   It is my belief that as the trolley is pulled along, the so-called “travelator” is scanning you and finding your weakness just the same as that freshly bought lettuce being packed at the check out ahead.

   Then once they have your profile, the messages are sent directly to the wheels on the trolley in order to create the optimum pattern for critical annoyance.

   Why do this, to paying customers?

   The answer is simple.

   The longer you take to push the trolley around the supermarket. The longer THEY have to convince you that the “Mega Deal” of the day consisting of 40 tins of tuna and a garden hose IS a necessity for any household.

   Especially yours.

   Resistance is futile and very soon you will find the trolley IS in control as you hurtle towards the deli-counter, the trolley straining against your frantic attempts to repel this sudden change of direction.

   My advice.

   Shop three or four times a week and use a basket.

   :dead:

   P.S good work on the chevy.com thing by the way.

   I’d be stoked too if I understood all this I.T stuff. But alas, like Esther I know not of the things of which you speak.

   I thought layout tables were where dead people went for autopsy, so that just about shows my level of comprehension.

    Great Job Dave on the GM site…very super groovy.

    How come no one mentioned a cart cut up into a BBQ grill or functioning a a laundry hamper from the laundry chute in the basement or functioning as an apartment for an individual

    I too hate carts, and find I use a hand basket most often……..ask my boys…they hate me for it….tee hee
