why not just go and put them in the cart holder thing? lol
1: its not my job and no one helps me with my job.
2: i am at the very end of the lot i am not pushing 3-4 carts the whole way up.
3: i take my own back why cant other people.
4: hoping people would see it and think to them selves "if im to lazy to take my cart back ill just flip it on its side so it dont roll away...... the guy that did that is a genus!"

Thats the bad part about working at a grocery store, when our cart people are behind the parking lot is LOADED with carts. But i usually park far away and usually im pretty safe. Later at night i'll move the car closer but on windy days i've watched carts flying all over the place or when im gathering them up to bring inside i'll find them up against cars sometimes.

I think I may just buy me a Tank Type Ride like below



Lou, keep us updated on repairs & you ~> Good Luck 4-Sure

This may run a little cheaper at $600,000 but it is road legal.
oh and Michigan Laws suck! I was so cautious when I was going to School in Southfield sooo many bad drivers, then again I did come home to Windsor which also has terrible drivers

Thats what I hate at times about driving a nice car, as soon as you have it looking nice, BAM! someone hits your car. Nice cars are like damage magnets. Glad to hear your ok though!

thats pretty funny for sure. I always just put them away except for the one time when there was one against the monte when I came out. It was the one cart in the entire lot with a wire sticking out of it. I shoved it into the cart coral so hard it hit the bar in the back and flipped over it.

The bad news: Well after a few calls with the insurance company I have found out i'm gonna get stuck paying for any repair up to my deductible. Then i can sue the uninsured motorist if I would like to get my money back. The insurance adjuster just passes the buck on it as being the state of Michigans fault.

The good news is I got all the scratches and marks rubbed out of the paint with the exception of 3 spots with the paint scraped off. Also there is no damage underneath, all the Styrofoam is in tact. It didnt even break the tabs on the bottom of the bumper.
I don't have any pics now i'll have to get one tomorrow. Basically all that's left is the 3 black marks in the first pic.
