I know, I know, I must be coming across as the most impatient person in the world, but I’m not. I admit I have my moments (as does anyone), but it’s just that inconsiderate shoppers really get me riled! I’m talking about trolley abandoners! You know the sort (maybe you’re even guilty of doing it yourself). You get half way around the supermarket when you’re doing your weekly shop only to realise you’ve forgotten something from the first aisle. But, instead of taking your trolley back with you (that’s too much like hard work) you simply abandon it mid aisle while you go off to get your bananas which drives me bananas! Because, on the way for their forgotten item, trolley abandoners often stop to browse (well, why not - they are unencumbered by a trolley after all!)

So, my problem with the abandoned trolley is that more often than not it’s parked right in the was of the shelf or chiller that I need to get to and I don’t appreciate having to manoeuvre my trolley and someone else’s just to get to the cheese! This normally results in trolley rage and it’s not even my trolley! So, next time you need to go back for something from aisle one, spare a thought for your fellow shoppers and take your trolley with you!
