Shopping Cart or Carriage?
Sorry, very random question, but I figured you guys are from all over the country and could tell me whether you call them shopping carts or carriages, or anything else. I work at a Supermarket and a customer became upset with me when I asked for his carriage, he said he didn't know what I was talking about, I needed to call it a cart to have him acknowledge me, now I'm curious what other people call them!

In south Florida they're carts..at least with us <i>true</i> Floridians..everyone else is from somewhere else, it seems, but most people call them carts.

~Angela who's never heard the term carriage for a shopping cart

Carts in both NY and MD. I've never heard them called carriages however. Sounds like there should be a horse pulling it...
