Child’s trolley help please

Hello. Our youngest son is turning 7 in a few weeks. He is autistic and loves logos. He creates his own logos and then places them next to food, baskets, trolleys in local shops so he can see what it would look like.

For his birthday, he has asked for his own child’s shopping trolley. We thought this would be simple but he’s adamant that he wants one with a flagpole and adult handle such as the ones in Morrisons and Lidl. We have found one online but delivery charge is over £50!!

Any bright ideas would be very welcome. He’s already planned his first ‘big shop’ the day after his birthday! He’s very rigid in his thought processes so moving away from his idea would be very tricky!

have you had a look on eBay?

We have gone through eBay so many times but not seen this one oddly. Thank you. We are about 1hr 15mins away so this might work 😊

I don’t know if you’re aware but Morrisons especially (and other stores probably) have a designated community champion - it may be worth contacting them to explain the situation as they might be able to help? They may not but there’s nothing to lose!

Interested in this thread?

Thanks. I’ve already tried contacting Morrisons but they can’t help me.

The EBay one is also furthest away than I thought so back to square one 😒
