Um...I'm in Canada, people use them here.  Not just old, but nearly all of the soccer moms in my neighbourhood. 

I think Annette had one last time she left L&A’s. Maybe it was the same one. 
Actually a girl 🇨🇦I know uses one too, but I did associate it with the more elderly. But they are so practical, I think I should get one now. lol.

In Spain everyone uses it to do the big weekly shopping. In every neighbourhood there is plenty of supermarkets so we go there by walk, not by car, and you know... Carry the six pack milk, 3kg. bag of potatoes, fruits, vegetables, rice, meat, etc... It's too heavy even if the Mercadona is 5 minutes by walk from home.

It's different for people not living in the city and they need the car to go to the mall or whatever. Then is not useful the trolley.

They had this in both B1 and B2 too.

L&A sind vom Einkaufen zurück ... und haben einen verdammten Einkaufswagen für Rentner mitgebracht 😆 😆 😆 . Meine Oma hatte in den 80ern auch so einen. 

Das ist in "Old Germany"  üblich mit den Rollis - so werden die Einkaufshilfen hier genannt - einkaufen zu gehen, machen bei uns sogar hübsche junge Mädchen.  Soweit die Aussage zur "Oma-Karre"
