Oops, I Did It Again

Usually I like shopping at my local Fred Meyer store. It's one of those places that carry darned near anything you could possibly want. It's close by, convenient, and it always has several motorized shopping carts waiting by every entrance.

But I think they may not want me to shop there anymore. I have an.....um......interesting history with Fred.

Last summer I was zooming around in one of their motorized shopping carts. I zipped through the produce department, took a right at the toiletries, and knocked over an entire display of sunglasses. It created a spectacular crashing mess.

Oops.

I'll bet the store manager had the entire incident captured on surveillance camera footage and alerted the staff to ban me from plopping my fanny in one of those motorized things. I suspect that they have my face posted on the Fred Meyer version of WANTED posters back in the stock room, so I've been kind of avoiding using their putt putt carts. 

Until yesterday. My dumb stupid knee was acting up, and I thought enough time had passed that it was safe to shop in this store and use their motorized shopping carts again......but I was wrong.

Because this go around after speeding through the produce section, I rounded the corner into the snack aisle and almost killed Captain America.

Yeah. With one of their trusty AMIGOs.

There Captain America was, looking all super-hero-like and standing watch over his Doritos display, when......WHAM. I smacked into him going full throttle.

Lucky for the big guy, I only bent one of his corners. 

I'm thinking that I may have escaped notice this time since cardboard and potato chips are much quieter than a huge sunglasses display when rammed with an AMIGO shopping cart. Somebody should talk to good old Fred Meyer and tell him that their carts simply go TOO FAST. This couldn't have possibly been my fault, could it?

Nah.
