Shopping baskets – A Must Have in Retail Outlets
What is the first thing that you do when you enter a departmental store or any retail outlet? You go straight to the stack of shopping baskets, pick one and only then do you take out your shopping list. It stays with you throughout the time you are in the shop and later you discard it and walk away without giving a thought to what you would have done without it. Such baskets can be had in different sizes to match your need. For light shopping, there are ones with plain handles to be carried around. Or choose one with wheels that can be pulled around the store for that once in a month buying frenzy.
Shopping baskets are generally available in red and blue and with the chrome plated wire baskets adding to the range. A review of the main ones will highlight their utility.
• Individual Shopping Baskets – These baskets are available in red and blue with black or body coloured plastic handles. These handles are foldable which ensures easy stacking. They are made of break resistance plastic and are extremely sturdy and durable. The capacity is generally 5 gallons but there can be slight variations to it. Measuring 12in W x 17in L x 8in D they are adequate for a shopper picking up essentials on the go. The depth of 8in is enough to hold several products. Some of these baskets are sold with a metal stand and sign holder which makes for easy storing. Another form of the same design is those manufactured with chrome plated modern durable wire having nylon coated steel handles for effortless carrying. The dimensions are the same as the coloured ones.

• Shopping baskets with wheels – These baskets are very strong and sturdy, made to carry much more than the individual baskets. These are also available in red and blue. The dimensions are 18in L x 12in W x 15in H with a 30 litre capacity, more than enough for the average shopper. The pull up extended handle rises to 36in which is very comfortable for an adult of average height.
These are the standardised version of shopping baskets. Individual baskets can also be got in green and black mesh though these are not as common as the red and blue versions. For those with wheels, double baskets on the same frame can be seen in many supermarkets. It is up to you to choose one that matches the length of your shopping list.
