Supermarkets have those, too.

But it’s not the frail little old ladies that use them. It’s the morbidly obese 40/50 year olds. And the scooters don’t have arm rests, so Mr./Ms. Plump’s derriere hangs over both sides of the seat.

They don’t seem to get the irony of driving around the aisles, filling the cart with the food that’s making them fat...

Supermarkets should put the really fatty, high-calorie foods on the top shelf *snicker*

My husband has gotten to the point where he needs one for the once a month serious grocery trip (not because he’s obese, or a frail old man lol he is almost 30 though... LOL...he had an unfortunate meeting with an IED in Iraq in 2003). The looks he gets from people who don’t see that he also has a cane, or see him slowly walking back to the car with his cane after the shopping trip hurt me. The fact that he has had to admit that he needs to ride in the thing is painful to him, without taking into account rude stares. I figure that’s probably the difference between people who don’t really need them and people who do. Those that do need them, wish that they didn’t need them, and those who are just lazy think that they are entitled to them, and that they are the neatest thing since sliced bread.
