I occasionally see women leave their purse in the "baby seat" of a
shopping cart and just walk off. I truly don't understand it. It's
just an invitation for someone to grab your purse/bag/whatever and walk
off with it. I keep my purse/bag on my shoulder at all times, even when
I move my cart to the side and walk a few paces away to look at some
items. It's just common sense... something a lot of people don't seem
to have much of.
