Grocery getter!

You Texas boys may have seen this now and then. I think they bring it out as a promo when they open a new store. I had to stop and get a few pics. Pretty crazy.

I had forgotten about the H-E-B stores. Folks will get a kick out of knowing what the B stands for...

I saw that one as a kid too. Looked like a real grocery cart. Wonder what became of it.

It was at the Veterans Day show in Bastrop a couple years ago. Pretty wild. Yes I did see it run and move.
