Why do so many women put their purses in the kiddie carrier part of the shopping cart? Do they realize how easy that makes it for the grab-and-go thief? Every now and then we hear that someone's purse was taken. Seems like most retailers have policies that keep employees from intervening. I doubt that local police are going to spend much time on this kind of crime beyond taking a report especially if there is no injury, but don't know for sure and certainly don't want to find out.
I was in the grocery store yesterday and made a point of looking for this. It seems that over half of women do this. Most do occasionally turn away from the cart, too. A purse would be safer in the bottom of the basket, preferably with the strap tied to the cart. Even better with a bunch of groceries on top of it.
Just wonderin.
