Oh noes we have them too  :thumbsup:

Most of the time if you want a trolley you have to also have a quid to release it unto you for your use.

The wheely baskets also have a bigger capacity than the hand baskets.

I've never used them. They have a smaller surface area, but are deeper than conventional basket, so in JOM's eyes that means you will end up stacking things on top of each other rather than next to each other; and the last thing you need when out shopping is crushed nuts like
