I was in the grocery store with a friend the other day and she had a good laugh at me for calling the "object" you put your groceries in at the store a buggy.

What do you call it....
Buggy or a cart.

I have found that most people from the south call it a buggy.

Cart.

When I think of the word buggy...I think of horse and buggy, dune buggy, and baby buggy.

I'm the oddball as usual, I call it a basket. Hmm, doesn't make much sense to call a thing with wheels a basket, lol, but then I'm a ******* so I guess it's to be expected :toothy:

We call them carts here, but I like buggy better. Most people, around here, don't know what a buggy is.
