This is an odd one. I was talking to a friend who works in retail, and he said it's very common for women to pick up several items, carry them around the store, and then go looking for a shopping cart.

It's because we go in for "just a couple items" and then realize we need something to carry them in!

I once did that - had several items plus a watermelon in my arms - a store employee asked if I wanted a cart and I told her I didn't need one - within minutes the watermelon flew out of my grasp, did a slow motion somersault in the air and crashed onto the floor! So much for not needing a cart!

Have you noticed...that when a man copies what a woman does, he still manages to be wrong.

I have done that many times...at both the grocery store and Home Depot!

I pop in, pick up a cart and a bit of speed and still jump on the back. Mrs. N. says "won't you ever grow up". I sincerely hope not.

Ha ha.......
I go into the grocery store for a dozen eggs..
Ten minutes later I’m struggling to get to the checkout counter with those dozen eggs, an Entenmanns cake, a quart of milk, bananas and a pound of coffee !

There are two kinds of people in the world, those who are always right...and their husbands.

Jerry,

Won't be a problem at B&H as we don't have a single shopping cart and probably never will as illustrated in the video below

All the best.

WHICH REMINDS OF THE SAYING: " IF THE MAN IS ALWAYS WRONG... AND HE TELLS HIS WIFE SHE IS RIGHT...IS HE WRONG? "

You first gotta know the there is a big difference between women and men about buying things. Men go to a store to BUY whatever they went for. Women go shopping. Thake screwdrivers for example. Men go to the store look at the selection, decide what kind or size and buy it. Women go to the same store and get distracted by something, stare at it, think about it, and either choose it or not. Then on the way to the screwdriver aisle have to ask some one what kind of screwdriver, and what is the difference between them. Stare at each kind, check prices, sizes-what's on sale and if she needs 1 or 2 of each kind. She makes her choice, and on the way to the register remembers that she needs another pair of shoes (women ALLWAYS need another pair of shoes) same shopping process-stare, what kind, size, color, on sale, coupon. On the line at the register, remembers that she forgot something else, holds up the line while she runs to get it and runs back to the register. OK it's a joke. But it is also partially true. Trust me, I go shopping with my wife often, She has shoes she has yet to wear.

I walk into a store and five minutes later I have completed my shopping. I go with my wife and two plus hours later we leave the store.

I guess I'm bi-sexual! I do that.
