I am definitely the mom who circles the parking lot in search of a cart return that has a family cart waiting for me and my three children. And spare pants are always a must! May I also add the importance of reporting to a store manager for any broken child restraints/ seat belts on the carts. I typically shop with my children who are usually well behaved. Last week, I was unable to find a single family cart that did not have broken restraints. This became a very serious problem several times throughout the store as my 2 year old son either fell out of the cart as it was moving or used my being stopped as an opportunity for a prison break. Needless to say, the shopping trip was a disaster. I spoke with two managers after I checked out. and reminded them of the store's liability if something bad were to have happened to my child as a result of the store's failure to have safe carts for children. I received a phone call from the local store manager the next evening apologizing for the incident. He reported that new restraints had been ordered for all carts in need of repair and that I could rest in the fact that they would be repaired within 10 days. It may seem like nothing, but I may have prevented an accident from happening in the future... not just for my children, but for yours as well. Great article!
