RE: I NEED HELP with shopping cart covers!
Linda,
I got one because I am a bit germ-o-phobic. And Colin is so mouthy. I'd rather he be chewing on his cover than on the shopping cart or high chair itself. Or even worse, the strap - ick!! It is nice because at our grocery store, not all of the carts have straps, or they are sometimes in bad shape.
But if I didn't want to spend the money, I could probably find a way to cover the offending areas in a blanket.
I don't consider it an alternative to the stroller - I use it when I need the cart (and thus cannot use the stroller). My first choice will always be to put Colin in his stroller (or in his sling) because then he is exposed to mostly his germs, but if I need to buy $100 worth of groceries, the stroller just won't hold that.
