OMG, that's hilarious.!

But, when I read the title and was waiting for the thread to come up, my mind was racing...
I thought you were going to show a side of the shopping cart used as a backup (reflector) for a Gray Hoverman or bow tie OTA TV antenna! -
Come to think of it, ya might not even have to cut up the cart...
...and you could fine tune by rolling it around on its wheels.

I thought I was goofy that time I put a Glorystar dish on the trailer hitch of the truck to do a review

Hey, maybe I could setup an extra dish that way. No woman can resist a shopping cart.
