People like this are the reason we put idiotic warnings like "coffee is hot" on things. Some people just need explicit directions.

McDonalds has spent a lot of money to convince you that those warning labels are for the “stupid and clumsy”, and not because they burned a grandmother’s skin off.

Additionally hot coffee at Starbucks for instance is served plenty hot at 150 to 170 degrees. McDonald’s was serving coffee at 190 degrees (some sources say as hot as 205), which could cause third degree burns in as little as three seconds. This was going on for at least a decade prior with numerous complaints. Imagine any given day a three second mistake as mundane as spilling your coffee could require a skin graft.

People are calling her stupid, but I think the last basket is glued to the frame, so that others can stack or remove a basket from it. She's obviously decided since there were no more left to take the frame as well.

I don't believe they do. Mcdonalds tried defending themselves when they were forced to put warnings on their cups because they keep coffee extraordinarily hot to serve longer. That's a reasonable call for a warning label than assuming it's just a little hot.

I’ve met that woman. She definitely deserved compensation, the injuries are rough. Also worth it to note the judge was hyper annoyed that this was like the fifteenth McDonald’s coffee injury that had been through the courts that year, so he hit them where it hurt. She did not request that level of compensation.

Target has updated theirs with big placards so you can't see the bar any more.

TBF if your shopping isn't heavy, this is the most practical unse of the cart.

The only flaw in this picture is the cart design.

I’ve been to some stores where the last one is screwed into the frame. I think there’s a psychological aspect to having one in place that serves as a reminder to put it back when you’re done with it.

You drop the coin in the handle, then can disconnect it from the others and use. At the end of shopping you connect the cart to others and get the coin back.

Yeah it looks like the handle is missing from that basket, so actually carrying it round like this is probably better than trying to carry it with her arms and having to put it on the floor every time she wants to grab something off the shelf.

I wish more stores in the US had baskets with wheels and a long handle like many stores in Spain (and maybe most of Europe?) do.

Not sure if you're joking but it's 100% not glued. I work at Asda and due to the added weight of all the other baskets, the bottom one gets a bit wedged in the holder. Usually requires a little bit more effort to remove the last basket. I've seen people walking round exactly like this lady

If the market don't put enough out, you're legally alowed to use whatever you can find in store to carry your groceries, up to and including the manager.
