Sorry have to disagree with you there. Baskets where the user has
to bend or stoop down to floor level to pick things up, have never
made ergonomic sense let alone at the start of the 21st century.

Do you normally keep your basket in your hand while queuing? Most
put it on the ground.

The topic under discusion are the plastic baskets on wheels which you
drag along the ground. There is no question of anyone keeping them "in
their hands."

The ones on our Lidl have dual handles. You can either use them a low
trolleys or carry them as a basket. The store also has proper trolleys
in 3 different sizez/shapes.

Quite. Perhaps things are different elsewhere?

Funny old world. You'd think where Charles lives they'd be knee deep
in Waitrose and M&S.

We have them, but Lidl have opened 2 near here this year with a 3td on tehn
way, Theer are also Tesco (who share a site with M&S) Morrisons, etc.


My nearest Lidl is much smaller than his, they
even stopped stocking tomato puree, yet we've got both both a Waitrose
and a big Sainsbury. And that's in an area that was on the slide and
probably still is; if all the new "luxury" flats remain unsold.
