WHAT DOES SHOPPING TROLLEY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

shopping trolley

Shopping cart

A shopping cart is a cart supplied by a shop, especially supermarkets, for use by customers inside the shop for transport of merchandise to the check-out counter during shopping. Customers can then also use the cart to transport their purchased goods to their cars. In many places in the United States, customers are allowed to leave the carts in the parking lot, and store personnel will return the carts to the storage area. In many European and Canadian premises, however, coin- operated locking mechanisms are provided to encourage shoppers to return the carts to the correct location after use. Experts encourage consumers to sanitize the handles and basket areas prior to handling them or filling them with groceries due to high levels of bacteria that live on shopping carts.
