Hi all, long time lurker, first time poster.
Does anyone know where I can get a shopping trolley? I'm not too sure what those things are really called, but I see other people using them sometimes to take groceries home. The supermarket is a bit of a walk from where I live and I'm thinking a trolley would be a great help.
Thanks!

Shouldn't cost you more than $10 for one. Some places will be more expensive than others.

Positano, are you referring to the trolleys made by Reisenthel? I've seen them at Tang's and Takashimaya. They do look pretty, but it doesn't seem like they can take a beating. I'm looking for something inexpensive but fairly sturdy, so I can schlep it around without worrying too much about getting it damaged or dirty.

hi twotoasters, i don't know the name of the brand. a friend of mine bought one from Tangs and she loves it. i think there were only two designs available - she bought a blue and green design. another friend of mine bought hers from orchard towers and i don't know what the brand of that trolley bag is either. both friends are happy with the use of their trolleys so far. hope this helps.

I got mine from Giant at Vivocity for under $10. It's great, metal and cloth and folds up nicely. I actually got a metal one from NTUC but it's bigger and heavier. The cloth basket type folds up very well--even can take it on the bus or metro.
