These practices are not only excellent safety and liability measures; but are essential from a customer service and convenience standpoint. The blogs are fervent with moms talking about shopping cart safety and applauding stores that provide the safety equipment that help them care for their children while shopping. The simple practice of providing Safe-Docks and working seat belts in shopping carts is an opportunity for the retailer to make the shopping experience a bit better for parents.
