Shopping Cart Wash Lets Customers Get Groceries, Not Germs
[snip]

Two grocery stores (independents) power wash their carts every
week. In talking to two guys I saw doing it one weekend, it's
one of those jobs that is assigned but highly sought after;
apparently it's considered more play than work.

I'm more worried about getting hit by a car in the lot or
having a plane drop from the sky on my house than contracting
any germs from a shopping cart or hand basket.
