Shopping cart aquisition can be easy and legitimate.
Many grocery stores continually throw out old shopping carts that get
rusty or unsightly.  My wife asked and was able to take her pick from
a group that were being thrown out, and it made a wonderful Father's
Day gift that I filled with oil and all the other car fluids and supplies
that I roll from car to vanagon to car  to truck when doing maintenance.
Wonderful time saver if vehicles are widely spaced.

Cheers, Tom Neal
