Excuse me, mind if I ask you a question?

I am often stopped on the street during my somewhat obsessive food shopping and asked, "Excuse me, do you mind if I ask you a question?"

While I am secretly hoping the question is, "Are you f is for foodie?" instead it is "Where did you get that shopping cart?".

The shopping cart in question is Zabar's folding shopping cart; perhaps one of my most prized possessions (sad but true). During my summer spent working at the Union Square Greenmarket I came across many shopping carts but one in particular caught my eye. It was the perfect size, lightweight, collapsible and the mesh netting helped it to expand when you have bulky items. After hearing the man go on and on about how this cart was a Godsend; I asked the RRR's to get it as my birthday gift that year and I've been using it religiously ever since.

Unfortunately, the cart is no longer available on line but a quick trip to Zabar's and you can experience the joy of shopping too!
