cartiquette

Definition

Shopping cart etiquette—the sadly underappreciated social contract of grocery store navigation. It encompasses lane discipline, spatial awareness, and the basic courtesy of not parking your cart perpendicular across the aisle while you contemplate soup options for seventeen minutes.

Example Usage

The Costco on Sunday is where cartiquette goes to die—it's just chaos and abandoned carts everywhere.
