Anyone got a shopping trolley?

one of these I mean, I don't mean a supermarket trolley

Whilst wandering round the market this morning, it dawned on dp and I that this is exactly what we need to put the shopping in, therefore leaving two hands free for chasing after small children.

So am looking for one on-line and they all seem to be either really old-woman-ish, or really (I mean really) expensive.

Any recommendations?

Squonk - you are the only one who did. I'm just so *ing popular

I am truly ashamed to admit it, but I do actually have a supermarket trolley in the corridor outside my flat, waiting to be returned to our local Waitrose

LyraSilvertongue · 29/03/2008 18:15

That must be a classy look, Janni

Janni · 29/03/2008 18:26

You're right Lyra.
I'm taking it back NOW.

Janni · 29/03/2008 18:27

Just remembered - DD's asleep and I'm here on my own. It will have to stay there a little while longer

LyraSilvertongue · 29/03/2008 18:29

Excuses, excuses...

Janni · 29/03/2008 18:32

Does the fact that it's a Waitrose trolley make it any less awful?

LyraSilvertongue · 29/03/2008 18:34

Well, marginally better than Asda, I suppose

lol at the Rolser marketing blurb "This snazzy shopper will see you spiralling to the very top of the fashion tree. Dazzle your friends and random passers-by with your shimmering new shopping friend."

Can't wait

Don't think a Waitrose trolley would make the grade as a 'shimmering new shopping friend' though Janni, sorry

Janni · 29/03/2008 19:02

But it's really VERY GOOD for getting your groceries home when you don't have a car. Environmentally friendly too, as you don't need to bag up the produce.

It COULD catch on.

Ordinarily though I use a pushchair. I really am a hopeless case in the style department

I must have a snazzy shopper that will see me spiralling to the very top of the fashion tree. I want to dazzle my friends and random passers-by with my shimmering new shopping friend.

I've got one, it's brill for carrying home heavy shopping. I got it when I stopped putting dd in a buggy. It's a lovely tartan one and my friends laughed at me at toddler group and called it my Roy Cropper Shopper - but I didn't care.

NOOOOO - carrying home heavy bags of spuds and milk is very good for the arms, didn't you know Like going to the gym, but free!
