Target removes 'nightmare' kid carts

By Susana Victoria Pérez (Buzz60)

Target reports it is getting rid of something one blogger referred to as, "vehicles of mass destruction."

In August, Target rolled out mini kids carts in 72 stores nationwide as a test. The initiative was meant to make shopping with children easier.

However, after countless complaints Business Insider reports that the carts have been removed from all stores and will not be returning.

Angry Target shoppers reported that kids would slam the mini carts into people's ankles. One shopper wrote on her Facebook page, "they make shopping trips into torture! Especially with three kids, all wanting their own tiny cart, triple the headache."

Not all parents were haters though. Another parent said that the carts were "great for keeping the kids busy and motivated to help out." Another said his child burst into tears when they visited Target and the carts were gone.

Target stated that they value their shopper's feedback and so the carts had to go.
