I am looking for a shopping cart cover that can fit in my diaper bag, but that covers the whole shopping cart. I have the Floppy Seat which I don't love b/c it's yet another thing for me to carry by itself, and I also have one that folds by rolling it into itself and carrying it by the lap belt. I would like one that covers the whole cart, has a lap belt, is at least padded, but folds pretty flat and can be put in a medium to large diaper bag.... does this exist?

The cover at One Step Ahead looks pretty thin. Maybe they can tell you how small it folds up. I would think it would be pretty hard to find one to fit in a diaper bag, because I know how big mine is when it's rolled up.

Don't they sell plastic covers that just go over the handle bar? Maybe that could be a solution.

I've been ISO the same thing for along time!! I actually bought one of those Chubby Seat covers & a Sew Cute Boutique custom cover, and albeit they are adorable - they are as big as small sleeping bags when they are all rolled up!!

One thing I was thinking of doing was getting an inexpensive fleece blanket (or just a large piece of fleece from the fabric store) and cutting 2 holes for legs. I'm not a sewer at all, and fleece doesn't fray when it's been cut, so it won't need to be hemmed around the cut edges. However I still feel like I want something a bit more "professional".

I'll be keeping an eye out on this thread to see if anyone else has any suggestions that they've found, too.

What about the Original Clean Shopper? They look thin and it says it folds up compactly .... of course, I can't find a picture of it folded on any website. Maybe someone has one and can take a pic?

Here's a link:

OK, I finally found a picture of the tote bag ... doesn't look like it would fit into any bag except the LE's Triple compartment backpack I just got.

I still want a decent cart cover that fit in a medium sized diaper bag (not a disposable plastic one) b/c when I go into a restaurant, I lug the bulky shopping cart cover (I use it in the highchair), a toy bag, my diaper bag, AND I am holding my daughter who is already 30 lbs. If anyone finds one, please post!!!
