I feel claustrophobic in a regular stall, so unless there is a handicapped person around, I head right to the handicapped stall, but sometimes I feel like I shouldn't be using it.<br /><br />Regarding the carts... if it is parked outside of the bathroom with a few items in it... and maybe a note... no one will touch it for the few minutes it takes you to potty. <br /><br />I don't have a toddler anymore, but I have attacked people pretty viciously for almost hurting or even offending my kids.Ahermitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12246307693236606434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-15868053875887370842011-06-14T15:50:29.400-05:002011-06-14T15:50:29.400-05:00My thought is that they are worried that someone w...My thought is that they are worried that someone will steal their motorized chair while they are in the restroom if they leave it outside--just like an empty shopping cart will get taken if unwatched.<br /><br />Lynne DiligentAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-1493095502295303582011-06-12T09:25:42.830-05:002011-06-12T09:25:42.830-05:00Interesting... but makes sense.

Then the big stores aren't left to deal with all the cleaning issues... here the bathrooms only are in larger stores, which makes no sense.Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-37041114115826845172011-06-12T05:23:21.784-05:002011-06-12T05:23:21.784-05:00P.S. here in Australia, the toilets are not within...P.S. here in Australia, the toilets are not within the store itself, but situated somewhere else within the shopping centre. A trolley of groceries left outside one of those would be gone in a heartbeat! Also my groceries are in zipped up bags well away from the toilet itself, close to the washbasin so well out of splash range. Mostly I try not to take groceries in, if I think I can make it home, if there's some urgency, then I have no choice.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-9987961831132697472011-06-12T05:17:46.230-05:002011-06-12T05:17:46.230-05:00Can't offer any thoughts on the plane issue, b...Can't offer any thoughts on the plane issue, but in shopping centres I will often use the handicapped toilet, not because I'm too fat for the regular stalls, (I weigh about 154 pounds), but because I don't drive so take my little "granny" trolley to the shops with me to wheel my groceries home in. This doesn't fit into a regular toilet stall and there's just no way I'm leaving it outside for anyone to walk off with, so into the handicapped stall I go.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-6479806429656897082011-06-12T01:01:22.814-05:002011-06-12T01:01:22.814-05:00I remember that Seinfeld episode!

And then they touch the groceries, but don't buy everything they touch?? <br /><br />The groceries don't bug me nearly so much as the running over kid thing. You can leave the shopping cart where it won't get splashed... it's kind of like reading a book in the bathroom, sorta yucky to put it back on the coffee table... but...<br /><br />Hm. I wish I had a handy poll in the sidebar. Groceries in the bathroom, gross? yes or no. <br /><br />:PHappy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-10433877265714248912011-06-11T19:27:16.896-05:002011-06-11T19:27:16.896-05:00Agreed!!!

Another thing that bugs me is when people try to take their shopping carts into bathrooms...do you really think someone is going to pilfer your unpurchesed items if you leave the cart outside the bathroom?? You're in a STORE, there are thousands of cartons of eggs, and hundreds of gallons of milk...yours isn't the ONLY one. <br /><br />Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George gets caught taking a book in the bathroom and the book is 'flagged' as a bathroom book by staff. He is horrified. lol Well, who would take their food into a public restroom, then take it home and put it in the fridge???Blondeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11827536147609261504noreply@blogger.com
