Random clicky poll, shopping carts

I went to Costco today, parking was non existent.  Oh, but there were several spaces that had turned into cart storage, which annoys the crap out of me.  After use, I always put my cart in the designated spot or take it back to the entrance.  What about you?

Re: Random clicky poll, shopping carts

  • Always in the cart stall, because I HAAAAATE thinking there's an empty space and it turns out some asshat has put their cart there.

    Ben, on the other hand, was a "put it wherever" kinda guy for ages (although I will say in his defense that - at least in the areas I've lived in - Australia seems to have way fewer cart stalls than is standard in the USA, which is kind of annoying because you have to look and look and look for one and then walk for ages to get to it). It's taken me a few years to break him of that habit and to get him to put the cart where it's supposed to go.

  • I'm a follow-the-rules kind of girl, but MH, sadly, would put it anywhere.  I'm fairly certain that most of the carts left everywhere are from men....... :)

  • This drives me nuts. Costco always seems to be the worst too.
  • ALWAYS the stall.  I can't stand it when people just leave them wherever.

  • I always try to put it back, but if I'm SUPER far and it's a major PITA to return it properly, I'll park it up on a grassy curb or something. 

    My biggest peeve at Costco is when people fill up the return cart aisles in a messy fashion.  Here, we also use those aisles as passageways through the rows of parking, so when people just jam them up with carts parked this-way and that-way, you have to go all the way around the rows to make it to your car.  Is it really that hard to put them together in a line?  Super annoying.

  • Oh I can't fathom not putting my cart in the cart slot or walking it to the front door.  Infact, I am THAT person that will walk over to someone that just left their cart in a parking spot, or leaves it in front of their car, etc..........and I will remind them where the location of the cart slot is.  Sometimes we all need a little coaching, if you will.

  • I usually return the cart to the designated spot, but I'll admit that if it is far away and there is a car waiting for my spot, I'll just park it in the nearest out of the way spot I find.  Sorry!  Embarrassed

  • i used to put it wherever, but always between two spaces or up on a curb so it never prevented someone from using a space....then i met MH who always put it back....so now i do that too :) though most of the time we are together so he puts it back for me :)
