Re: Do you return shopping carts?

I do but if I have one of the kids, I won't - I'll put it up on the meridian.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

If DS is in the car and the corral if too far then I usually don't.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

Not always

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

Yes, most of the time, unless I'm in a major rush and I'm far away from the cart thingy. It kind of irritates me when I see people that are literally right next to it and they don't put their carts in.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Lately, I usually don't, especially with the baby.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

Yes I always do.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

I USUALLY do but lately I've been parking in Guam to avoid other cars and if it is rainy or windy, I won't return it. I want to make other peoples' lives easier but sometimes I need to make my life easier, too.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

depends where i am ... if the thing is right there then yeah - if i got to go back to the store to bring it back them pfft i dont do it

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

I like this question...because

I went through Chemo & Radiation at 27....I promised God that if I became well and healthy that I would always return my carts to the store door area, unless it was raining I'd put in in the corral. And I have kept my promise alllll these years. If I even think about not doing it--I get these thoughts of guilt-so I return them. I try not to use them if it is raining or go shopping when it rains. I have carried bags to the car to avoid my cart returning issue.

When my dad met my DH (when he was FH)...my dad asked him --so do you know about this cart return 'thing'..and DH was like "Yeah!"...and now DH returns them too, or he'll return the cart for me....I'll even offer my empty cart to people--tell them my story-- and then they are happy to take the cart.

DH will even let me stand at the curb and he'll go get the car to avoid the returning of the cart. Poor guy, he is now entwined into my promise!

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

I don't ALWAYS but try too...

I do get mad though when I come out and there are 3 carts on my car!

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

Sandra ,
I totally understand why you return them....I have a similar issue with something too like this

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

I would have to say 95% of the time I do but every once in while I don't.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

No Unless I am parked in the front row.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

At risk of sounding like a loon, this is one of my biggest pet peeves - especially when the person is RIGHT NEXT TO the cart corral. I wouldn't make a scene and yell at anyone, and I would understand if a mom with kids is a bit overwhelmed, but it annoys the crap out of me when I see someone let the cart go and it goes flying into someone else's car. I have even run to catch a few so they don't hit a car. I am also one of those people that will offer to take the cart from someone in the parking lot on my way into the store, so they don't have to return it.

Re: Do you return shopping carts?

I always return them. I can't stand when they are in the way blocking spots and more then once my car got a scratch or something from a stray cart someone couldn't bother to put in the corrals.
