I had never seen it anywhere else I've lived, anyway, ALL the carts are 2-seaters! This thrills me, as I have 2 toddlers. I'm due in December with baby number three, and every time I go to the store I worry and wonder a little what we will do when we really NEED an extra seat. I didn't know there were 4-seaters to be found!

Yet, nearly every time I went to the store, I would see them used by one child and half the time the child wanted to walk, so the mom was pushing an empty cartAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006405629844665542.post-72462604599908128192008-11-19T07:01:00.000-05:002008-11-19T07:01:00.000-05:00I guess I'm going to be contrary...I figure she go...I guess I'm going to be contrary...I figure she got there first she gets to use it. Or maybe she got to the store and at that time that was the only cart INSIDE the store. Or little Johnny wanted it and she decided, for just this one time, to let him use it.<BR/><BR/>Hmmm can you tell I only have two children...Edihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01881967873653190545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006405629844665542.post-2928113419197940852008-11-19T02:04:00.000-05:002008-11-19T02:04:00.000-05:00It wasn't me!

I obtained one of the megacarts but I couldn't get the baby carrier to click in it's "spot". My 2 year old is scared of the floor at that particular store (she points to it and says something that we haven't figured out yet). I put the baby inside the buggy (leaving room for Lenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07940095168549241121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006405629844665542.post-46299405137182856332008-11-18T15:24:00.000-05:002008-11-18T15:24:00.000-05:00Connie,Thank you for the prayers!

I "only" have 4 kids, but the oldest just turned 6.I really really need to have both the 13 month old and the 2 YO confined to a cart.

Those stories all collected together would make a great book--"Smokity Rants" I can see it in print now with a picture on the front of a frazzled mother of seven in Wal-Mart glaring at the women with one child in a three-child cart. The picture makes me giggle! And so do your stories! With the proper illustrator, it would be a best-seller!Pat's Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15569560070613448167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006405629844665542.post-31476862911139095332008-11-17T19:46:00.000-05:002008-11-17T19:46:00.000-05:00Ummm... our walmart doesn't have anything BUT one-...Ummm... our walmart doesn't have anything BUT one-seaters.

And I am not above pointing it out to management. I've sat in my van with my kids while somebody on staff went and hunted me up a cart. I told them if they wanted my business, they needed to have enough carts on hand to properly serve the Lora Lynn @ Vitafamiliaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03230682066708030621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006405629844665542.post-61969388116695974572008-11-17T16:46:00.000-05:002008-11-17T16:46:00.000-05:00AMENAMENAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
