I feel like someone was all, "People love baby wearing. What else can people wear?" and this happened. It's like a basket fanny pack.

[julez]

This isn't a joke?

All I can think is how nasty these things are going to get. There's no good way to clean all of those straps and clips. Can you imagine a whole fanny pack as dirty as those little cart straps get? Hurl.

[bex1973]

LOL. No.

[slcjess]

This would never work for me. I need to put my purse in the cart, and it would take up valuable space in that. Maybe if I had a little kid with me it would make it easier to contain them since both hands are free?

[tripleshot]

Ok, now that's taking it too far. How hard is it to push a cart or carry a basket? Plus it looks ridiculous and I'm sure would hurt your back or make you walk funny.

[firelight1210]

I don't understand how this is easier? If I'm using a basket (lol, let's be serious, I always need a cart at Target), I can put it on my arm and still be "hands free".

Weirdos.

[silva]

WIll not use.

Also, our local target switched their carts to the plastic ones and it is amazing how quiet the store is now. You can't hear crashing carts.

[dexteroni]

lol. No. Not only does it seem unwieldy, I'm not sharing body straps with strangers.

[So_Fetch]

I don't think I would try it, but I love this girl's post. Especially the hula hooping. lol

[sicilygirl]

Say no to the Fanny Basket.

[cookie510]

I never get away with just using a basket at Target. And this is weird.

[cheeseandcrackers]

lol NO

[ECB]

Also, of the 3 devices now to put your stuff in - that's the one that they put a coffee cup holder on? The one that will bounce around the most and not be level? Um.... o.k.

[firelight1210]

Aren't fanny packs worn in front?



It's your "fanny" keeping it from sliding down?

[missmaddie]

I think there is one brilliant angle to this though...you can fit more random, unplanned shit, into full-size carts. Plus she said she left $58 later. There never has, and never will be, a $58 shopping cart load at Target.

[missmaddie]

Oh, and for the record I wouldn't wear it, but my wallet and DH would wish I would.

[humpty]

What is wrong with the person that invented this.

[Eagles]

Are you fucking kidding me?




Use a cart like a normal person. 

meganew please let me know if you see this bullshit in our Target. 

[pittsmcgee]

This can't be real.

This is ridiculous.

And I am impressed she has any money left on a Target GC from Christmas. I spend those things before the New Year.

[runforrest]

That is amazing.

s/o fanny packs, I bought one from my sorority sister's sister (lol), and i love it. It's more of a clutch that can be worn cross-body, shoulder, or around the waist, but it is awesome. I went out with some girlfriends a few weeks ago and it was so nice to dance without a purse hitting me or falling off of my shoulder. It's called a mollypack.

STOP IT.

Watching this Gif, makes me think of the SNL skit with Andy Sandberg and Justin Timberlake, "D in a box"

[achi]

I would never use that. Ever.

[wambam]

Daddy Wambam rocked a fanny pack HARD in the early 90s.

That's all I got.

[Deleted]

Maybe it's in response to the trend of people dragging the basket holder around:



Just take a cart weirdos.  Admit you're buying more than you came for.

It was an $11,000 gift card.

I'm guessing it's their attempt at a viral april fools day thing....which I'm sure all the recently laid-off employees will enjoy.

I do like the phone clip, though. I would totally use that if it were on a cart.
