Leslie admits in a TikTok video that after shopping at the supermarket she simply leaves her shopping cart and does not return it. This sparks outrage.
Leslie, a mother of two children from Los Angeles, admits in a TikTok video that she doesn’t return her car after shopping. Her reasoning is that the effort of packing the shopping into the car, putting the children in the car and then returning the car is too much for her.
The statement drew a wave of criticism and outrage on social media, with one critic commenting: “Shopping cart return stations are all over the parking lot – so never really more than 20 seconds away and you still can’t be bothered?”
Many mothers described Leslie as simply “lazy”: “I just unload the groceries, bring the cart back with the kids and then load them in. The same way we got out of the car. It’s that simple,” commented one woman. Everything else is just lazy.
According to the New York Post, Dobson responded to the critical comments by calling on women to trust their gut when they feel unsafe and to ignore the judgment. “They can judge me as much as they want,” said Leslie.
Parking in a supermarket car park can also lead to problems: a real parking ticket war is raging around an Aldi car park in the Monheim district of Baumberg. What should actually be a leisurely shopping trip is turning into an expensive pleasure for many citizens.
