Shopping Cart Filth

Ok, so where do I start? I read articles about this and it is truly disgusting! Here is just one from ABC News -- http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/OnCall/story?id=2859060

Other people's dirty hands, germy hands, sick people's bacteria-laden hands, snotty-nosed kids sitting in the basket with snotty hands, outside grime from parking lots, fecal matter, I could go on all day. So what to do? Well, some of the grocery stores have taken to putting out sani-wipes for you to clean the handles. About half the times I go to the store, the containers are empty and people have dropped used wipes all around the little trashcan the employees have provided for disposal of these cloths. Not "green." So a solution would be to have your own cart cover to take from your purse or pocket, open it up and cover the filthy handle. www.cartapillar.com is an option. For $14.95 you get a pretty quilted little cover that is folded, washable, and fits the cart handle like a glove. Better than a glove, you still have bare hands with which to pick up your items!
