And the choices are:
1) "In Memorium: Here lies Lisbeth Brennan. Her friends did call her Bess. She checked out 13 items when the sign said 12 or less."
2) "And remember kids, drinking and shopping don't mix."
3) "Joe was unclear on the concept of buying wheat grass"
4) "Friends don't let friends shop drunk."
5) "An extreme case of shop until you drop!"
6) "Safeway wins the grocery cart crash test for yet another year!"
7) "Another unwitting victim demonstrates the perils of drunk shopping"
8) "While investigating the latest report of lights in the sky, my partner and I pushed aside the brush to reveal just what I had feared. His muffled exclamation came through the handkerchief he held over his nose and mouth as he quickly jerked his head away from the sight. 'It's another shopping cart mutilation, Tom!'"
Please note that I have allowed one person to supply two captions. If anyone has a problem with that, please PM me.
Also, I got an entry just as I was posting the quotes. If anyone would like to change their vote, feel free.

| I'm okay with that, but I'd like permission to vote for two captions. I'm completely torn between 1 and 4. They both crack me up! |

I like 1 and I like 5.
1 reminds me of a game I used to play where you had to write people's tombstones in rhyme... was a fun game.
So that's why I'll go with 1. |

Everything else: pretty darn funny
But ONE it is.

Now waidaminute.
Am I just making this up or are you a Christine Lavin fan, too, Sara? (Somehow I remember that you are.)
Were you thinking of Shopping Cart of Love when you wrote that hilarious caption? |

Yes and no.
Yes, I'm a fan of Christine Lavin. No, that actually never came to mind.
All that I was relying upon was my own personal experiences of always picking the wrong line.
