It's Wednesday afternoon, the day before Thanksgiving. Its raining out and the wind is beginning to pick up. You decide to make a last minute trip to the store to get more stuffing and cranberry sauce. As you pull into the parking space, you realize that there is a shopping cart right in the middle of it, so disgruntled, you get out of the car and move the cart. After you park the car you look for the cart, but a lttle old lady is walking towards the store with it. So you go into the store and the only cart you can find is the one with the square wheel. You proceed to thump around the store and finally make your way to the checkout counter where there are six people waiting to grab the cart as soon as you leave.

After offering up your cart, you carry your bags out into the parking lot again. Just in time to see a cart rolling past you into the side of a parked car. You want to move the cart but your afraid you will gat blamed for the damage, so you put your bags in as quickly as possible and leave the shopping center. Before you can get a block away from the store you have to stop in the middle of the road for a woman crossing the street with a shopping cart full of groceries and four kids hanging off the sides of it. When you finally get to your street you notice that there is a shopping cart half submerged in the pond accross the street. You grin like a Chesire Cat, glad to be home , and you vow to shop on the internet from now on.
