I've seen some cart drivers that don't even stagger their parking in the spot. They will park right next to a cart already in the spot. That can make it difficult for the other cart driver to get into their cart.
Just walk/slide on thru to your cart. Not hard at all.

I always try to park on the right side of the space, far away from the curb. That way if there's no one in the space to my left and no other cart in my space, I can turn my cart around by driving forward and turning the wheel, and not have to back out of the space when I leave.

There is only ONE way to correctly hang a roll of toilet paper...

It refers to the incisions in the paper making it easier to tear segments from the roll. That is what the picture shows. It does not indicate or depict a way of hanging the roll. Jmho.

And, even the picture of the roll show the roll is tightly rolled, leaving one to suspect the roll may not actually be meant to be hung, but to be set down where it could not roll away. Jmho.

One of the first things I learned upon moving here. It makes perfect sense unless someone backed their automobile into the spot but I rarely see this done.
There is a lot of automobile"pull throughs" so how does that effect the left cart all the way forward and the right cart parked in the back of the parking spot?

I don't think it is so easy, especially when loading groceries or other purchases.

Well, I guess "over" would equate to "away" from the wall.

Charmin now has a wavey perforation which makes it very easy to tear the toilet paper one handed. Thank you Charmin!
