Aliens at the Wal-Mart

Now I don't know this for certain but I'm pretty sure that aliens designed the Wal-Mart in Salt Lake City.

We flew into Utah this afternoon. At the rental car company we were told that renting a car seat would be $50 a day. A day!

So, we decided to make a little trek down to Wal-Mart to buy a seat.

Now about those aliens...

Work with me here: The store was two stories with a parking deck. We entered through the second level and went down an escalator. As we traveled down I wondered how I was going to get my cart up the escalator.

It turned out that I didn't need to worry about it because there was an escalator for the carts.

Yep, an escalator for the carts.

You just pushed your cart into a turnstile thingy (turnstile thingy...my writing really just keeps getting better and better) and cart went up a special conveyor belt.

My cart just casually wandered up the escalator beside me.

It was crazy talk I tell you!

Aliens are clearly the only ones who could have come up with this system.

Well, aliens and the people that think it's okay to charge $50 a day for a car seat.
