When I get lied to, I have this horrible habit
They lied to me. I am complaining.

I don't. Well I do as I go. It is from a long (25 years) habit sm

that I learned when I worked on a typewriter and then on the hospital's main frame when there was no spell check. Even after all this time, when I see an error, I hit that backspace Key and fix it.

I'm sure that may even slow me down in the long run, but it's what I do -- I can't help it, it just happens.

But my store always allowed people to take them out if they wanted to until recently they have a policy that the SMALL CARTS cannot be taken out by customers. They say that they are not as steady as the big carts. I don't see a problem with their steadiness, until it was some old person - and I have a feeling that is what started it all, maybe an old person fell in the parking lot using the small cart sort of as a walker while they took their groceries out.

Tell you one thing and do another once youre under lock and key. I don't trust them anymore, so I'd rather stay right where I am.
