How bizarre. I’ve never considered that people may steal trolleys before people have paid for the items. The world is getting weirder.

Something similar happened to me a few years ago — only the guy left his cart/trolley and walked off with mine. I grabbed his and manically chased him up and down several aisles before I finally had him cornered. “Sir,” I gasped, “I believe that cart is mine!”
“No, it’s mine. Let’s see, I picked up tomatoes, eggs, strawberries, corn tortillas, salsa . . .”
“And tampons?!” I blurted — “You have tampons?”
“Oops,” he said as he hung his head and surrendered the cart. I handed over the cart he’d left behind with tomatoes, eggs, strawberries, corn tortillas, salsa, sans tampons.

On second thought, I should have invited him over for breakfast.

I’m laughing so hard. I love your blog.
I was in the grocery store earlier this week and thought I was only grabbing a carton of milk. One armful of heavy items later, I came across an empty abandoned trolley in the Diet Coke vicinity. I lurked in the aisle for five minutes before claiming it as my own, and I still felt guilty.
Who takes a grocery cart in use? I agree with the person above who said the guy didn’t want to been seen in the tampon aisle.

This just proves the fact that people are weird. Steal your unpaid groceries? Stupid.

Maybe he was trolleyed. Who knows how close you could have been to a full-on Trolley-jacking. Scary.

I am lazy, ok? I KNOW lazy. But stealing someone else’s trolley so that you don’t have to go round the aisles yourself? That is just Extreme Lazy.

By the way, a Kath and Kim magnet set sounds DIVINE.

Perhaps this is just the beginning of a growing movement of extremist shoppers… maybe an off shoot of the rightwing shopping cart liberation cartel? Or maybe he was just a part of a smaller faction of anarchist shoppers? Congratulations on stifling the rebel uprising before they spread!
