I have a feeling I now know where the phrase “shop till you drop” comes from, if this gizmo is anything to go by. Dubbed the Compact Sit-Down Shopping Cart, you wheel it around like any other normal shopping cart, filling it up with essential groceries as usual. The advantage you hold over other shoppers is quite unusual - when your legs start feeling wobbly, all you need to do is pull down the plaid seat cover and plant your tush on it.

Of course, once you’re done with your grocery shopping, all you need to do is wheel it to your vehicle, transfer all your purchases into the trunk, and fold up the unit by simply pushing a button. This further reduces the size of the gizmo, enabling you to tuck it comfortably into any remaining nook and cranny when not in use. The space saving design is something other baby stroller manufacturers could learn from. I believe that the Compact Sit-Down Shopping Cart’s functionality is not just limited to purchasing groceries - in fact, it can be used in many creative ways that include a park carriage, a laundry tote, an airport walker, or even a rolling backpack.

The entire frame is made from lightweight aluminum with an adjustable height to suit your body. The seat cover can be removed and washed for sanitary purposes, which is always a good thing. The basket is capable of holding goods up to 50 pounds in weight, while the seat can cater to folks who weigh less than 250 poinds. The Compact Sit-Down Shopping Cart measures 19″ x 8″ x 35″ and retails for $99.95.
