No Room For Groceries

Ever since accidentally running into a not so friendly face while trying to maneuver one of those ridiculous car buggies, the regular grocery cart/buggy have served us just fine.  One in front; one in back.  Yet, somehow it's no longer the "it" place to toss my food and boxed wine before checking out.  It is now become a convenient place to place my kids and keep them out of trouble.  I know the little sign on the cart shows a big X through the picture of the child in the back of the basket, but what the heck is one supposed to do when you're outnumbered by your own children and refuse to push around a sticky cart posing as a race car the size of a bus, whose front wheels only touch the ground on corners?  Sometimes you just have to break the rules.  Well that and shop more frequently so you have less groceries per visit and more room for kids.
