I shop on my mobility scooter and can't use a trolley or the store's baskets and I tend to have things all over so it's very easy.

We were standing in the same isle but when I turned to go the cart was gone. I finally located a clerk, who had seen the cart sitting alone and had put all the groceries back on the shelves!
