Don't you hate it when ...

Don't you hate it when people leave shopping carts in the parking lot space in a corner or even in an empty space itself instead of returning them to the designated area in the lot?? How lazy can they be! Usually there's a designated area a row or two away.

Just returned from a Target tonight and saw a guy do this as I was backing out... He pushed his cart to the end of an empty parking spot 2 spaces down and left the cart there... and there was a designated cart return spot just 4-5 spaces down! Gesh! :|

<rant over>

 
I carry a lift charge that gets affixed to the cart, point the cart in a direction opposing where I am, light the fuse and watch cart go 0 to 120 in 1/3 second.

Cheers!
 
Yeah, definately gets to me... No one should be in such a hurry that they have the time to come shopping for enough grocerys to use a cart but can't utilize 10 seconds to return a cart...
 
thats what cart pushers are for. if everyone put their carts back in the store, then we'd lose so many jobs!
 
I hate them when they threaten my car. So any carts within 20 feet of my car get either kicked over on their side, or put up on a curb so they can't roll away.

its true. you're allowing some minimum wage kid to get some fresh air and get out of the damned workplace. you're doing him/her a favor.
 
no need to return to the store, just keep them out of a legit parking spot and prevent others from parking or hitting their car into carts left there...
 
Walmart is the worst. Just looking at all those shopping carts scattered all over the parking lot makes you think that a lot of Walmart shoppers must be fat and lazy....

I understand a cart rolling into a parked car; but who drives into them? Even if they are in an open space? A kid could be laying down in the space instead of a cart, you can still look to see if its clear..
 
There have been many occasions where cart is at end of parking spot, hidden by cars on both end, you head in thinking it's a clear space, and crap, there's a cart at the end and you can't get your car's behind in enough... and arghh! have to back out and find another spot or jump out and move the *^*&%% cart to a corner...

Carts not put away is a huge annoyance to me.

One woman pushed a cart right at my car while I was pulling into a spot. It hit my bumper so I just pushed the cart with my bumper until it rammed into her rear bumper. She didn't seem so happy then. That's called getting pwned.
 
I guess; but if we have to talk about parking problems; their's the people that angle park in perpendicular spaces (or vise versa) and those that park on top of the lines, or those that pull about 4 feet forward into the spot ahead of them.

In a perfect world that'd be about a $100 ticket; state's need the money anyways. They could make a killing at malls.
 
..that's why my truck is all dinged up cause of loose shopping karts rolling around and sticking to the side of my truck..🙁
 
This is rarely an issue for me since everywhere I go I park mostly farthest away from the entrance and all cars. I park in spots usually people will think of last. And that way, my doors remain ding-free.
