It depends on how many items I am going to buy. If I shall be buying enough groceries I may as well use the cart. If I am going to buy few items like a can of baby' milk or few packs of biscuits and candies and assorted things, then I shall prefer to sue the basket. Our grocery stores here in our place have sections for a basket full of items where you fall in line and pay the items faster.

I use the cart most of the time. I try as much as possible not to carry heavy things because my back aches due to that action. It's much more convenient to use the cart, especially when you have to buy a lot of things.

No, in most cases, I use the lastic bag provided by the supermarket. But I still think using own basket is a good idea. It can protect our enviremeny from being polluted by the plastic bag.

Usually we use a cart when shopping because we always get a lot of heavy things, so it's rather difficult to carry a basket and try to carry everything else that we have to get. It's just bothersome. Sometimes if we only have a few small things to get, it's just easy to grab a basket and go about our shopping that way, but usually, we really like using a cart. It's easier to keep our things separate too.

Usually we'll end up buying more than we should (oops, bad habit I guess), so a basket won't be that handy and it would be heavy too! So I prefer to use a push cart ;)

I usually use a cart. I try to get what I need in one trip. I hate having to go to the grocery store every other day. If I am there for a few things I use a basket If I can find one.

If I go to the supermarket meaning to buy just a few items I get a basket to put the things in to. However if I buy heavy things like cans of dog food and cartons of fruit juice I like to get a trolley to push them around in. One supermarket I like to go to has trolleys that have to have a coin placed inside them. The money is returnable after shopping. However once the coin must have fallen out. Luckily the supermarket refunded me for this.

I always use a puush cart. I have to use a push cart beause I always have my 2yr old daughter with me and she never wants to walk. I use it even when I need to get only two items.

If I am shopping for something small I would use the basket, but the best is to have your own and protect our enviromental.If I have somethign bigger I wold of corse use push cart, but my finacee would always push it, since I don't like it.I don't know why, it is maybe becuase when it so full, it is hard to push it.
