Okay. Here is the deal.

If I am walking 3-5 miles round trip to get groceries, carrying 14 lbs of cat litter and another 5 pounds of litter on my back gets kind of hard. My body weight is somewhere around 100 lbs.

I've been paying attention to how other people do it, but I just noticed a lot of shopping carts left in random places but I am not going to steal the stores shopping cart.

So I found this cute thing and it looks durable to me.

This is where my anxiety kicks in, I don't care if I look weird. I care if it works and getting the job done, what I AM concerned about is going to the grocery store and someone getting mad at me or assuming I'm shoplifting or something going wrong on the road. But it also looks like it would hold up in the snow.

So I found this one, which is more of what would work for me since I can throw it over my shoulder until I'm done, but the reviews are not the best.

Sounds like the wheels aren't very good, which I can probably replace myself, but I will be upset if it breaks. Also like that it looks like I can use it for travel so if I end up having to duck out and run, I can just use that for luggage and I would have never wasted money for a short time.

Other one would be a bit big to carry on a bus or a train.

That must be tough. Before I had a car I would have to walk 6 miles to my Fathers house with a backpack. I know how hard that is. And a trolley is going to still be difficult.

I have a small cart, metal, with 2 wheels, that has a handle bar that extends and locks, the base has flip out "wings" to support a wider load, easily carries alot, in a hand cart fashion, yet folds very small and flat, light weight, does easily fit on the bottom rack of a grocery cart.
I've use it many times when in Rv parks, to tote laundry, to go to the local market. I keep a bungy cord, attached to secure stacked items.
Stores in a small space, wipes down clean with no canvas fabric to get dirty or wet or mildew.
I have over bought grocery items exceeding my list, and simply ask if I can have a box to better secure the load, without a problem.

Good Luck,
Taken

I have used one for years - lots of people do here in England. You should get one.
