There may soon be a new cart option at Walmart.

Currently, your shopping decision walking into a supermarket or grocery store is one of a few options: the big cart, an electric cart, the small 2-tiered one (my forever favorite), or the racecar/kiddy cart.

Walmarts in Wisconsin going to have a new option soon.

Caroline's Cart

The new shopping carts are called Caroline's Carts and they have a large seat in the back that's designed to "help caregivers of adults and children who have disabilities, limited mobility, or injuries more easily make their way through the store". The carts can hold someone between 35-250 pounds sitting in a seat with a five-point harness. They look like this:

Walmart has just rolled it out into 11 states. At the moment, Walmart Supercenters have 2 of these carts and the Neighborhood Markets have 1. They plan to have the carts in all Walmart stores by early 2025, making a nationwide total of about 8,000 carts.

Cedric Clark, executive vice president of store operations at Walmart said:

Equipping our stores with Caroline’s Carts provides some relief to parents and caregivers who need this tool and know it’s available at their Walmart. Whether they’re caring for someone with a disability or a temporary injury, the carts support our customers when and how they need it every time they come through our doors

The company said the carts are meant to help them create a more inclusive shopping experience. Last year, they started doing their sensory-friendly hours again, where from 8:00 a.m.-10:00 a.m. daily they dim lights where they can and turn off the radio.

You Could Own The Greatest House In The State Of Wisconsin

There's a home in Wisconsin that everyone in the state would call the best house on the market. The house is reasonably priced for the amount of money you could get out of it. Why does this house sound like a gold mine? Because it sits and looks directly at the heart of Title Town U.S.A., the legendary Lambeau Field, the home of the Green Bay Packers.
