Immigrant Female Shoppers Just Love America’s Free Shopping Carts!

Of all the many freebies and perks that entice women to emigrate to America—legally or otherwise—nothing is proving more popular or functional than the shopping carts provided free of charge each visit by grocery stores.

“In my country,” says Armenian mom Bela Dojdojian, “you must carry the bags home from store. But in America you take shopping cart home and leave it on grass outside of apartment building. If it is there in days you use it again for more shopping—if it is gone, that is okay too, you get another one from store.”

Maria Garcia, who declined to reveal her immigration status, is also a fan of the Free Shopping Cart Entitlement Program. Speaking through an interpreter, the longtime Los Angeles resident says:

“We are Catholic, I now have six children, and we came to the North because we knew that the Americans would pay for all our health care. Plus the three babies I had since coming are American citizens even though they aren’t learning English. But Dios mio, I am most happy about the free grocery carts! I keep one in my apartment, load up the kids, we walk to the park, the post office to send the government money back to my family in Mexico, and then we go buy groceries with the government food stamps. The shopping cart allows me to keep track of the kids.”

The free shopping cart: just one more fascinating facet of the melting pot that is the United States of America.
