You should have taken the whole cart! :insane: I bought a Bradlees cart after they went out of business and they were selling there carts and baskets and shelves and such and I had it until 2003 when I left it in the alley behind my house and a car hit it and I left it on the lawn across the alley by the trees! It turned out the guy had a few beers and I got 20 bucks for a distroyed Bradlees cart.

Found a few Bradlees carts in Bristol, CT. I was floored when I found them seeing as the Bradlees here closed about 5 years ago.

A blacked out cart abandoned behind a nearby Ocean State Job Lot which seized these after the Bradlees and Stop & Shop closed to make way for a bigger Super Stop & Shop on the other end of the plaza.

yesterday behind burlington coat factory I found a bradlees cart so I put it in my truck and now its in my basement:)

Here's a bunch of no longer used Bradlees carts in various forms found in Bristol, Connecticut in the Bristol Plaza.

[XISMZERO]

The red ones are typical Bradlees carts (there's tons of them floating around town) but these black ones are almost certainly former, rebranded Caldor carts. Check out the Ames-esque catch slogan from Bradlees final years...

Yo! You wanna know where the shopping cart graveyard is in Bristol? It's behind the Shaw's on the corner of Route 6 and Oakland Street. Until September 2004 I worked as a cart boy at that Shaw's. In addition to damaged Shaw's carts were carts from Bradlees, Caldor, Job Lot, Party City, Price Chopper, KMART, Toy Works.

There are some old bradlees carts at the Ocean State Job Lot in Westborough, MA.  Looks like they just slapped on blank stickers on most of them. Some say "Ocean State Job Lot"

[XISMZERO]

Yeah Marc, I've been around there lately. It seems the main strip on Route 6 has a lot of defunct store's carts perpetuated by the many thrift and closeout stores in that area. Every week or so I find new carts appearing in various plazas on Rt.6 (my home is around there and I'm in Bristol practically everyday for some reason or another).

[XISMZERO]

Here's a honeycomb-style "TJ Maxx" looking Bradlees cart I've found in few emerging around Bristol, Connecticut (the spent Bradlees cart capitol of the world). These might've been some of Bradlees final cart designs - note how the logo is on the bottom of the basket portion.

[XISMZERO]

Attempt at a blacking out of the logo, here's a newer, unseen Bradlees cart style sighted in a few plazas in Bristol, Connecticut. This was found outside the Ocean State Job Lot at the Bristol Centre Mall while another like it was found in Bristol Commons aside Price Chopper.

An old metal Bradlees cart found a few days ago at Ocean State Job Lot at the Bristol Centre Mall.

[XISMZERO]

Another typical cart found down the road with normal lettering on the bar.

[Marc82]

A bunch of old Red Bradlees carts now call Job Lot on Queen Street in Southington home. This is addition to the Green Ames carts they had and the grey carts they had that look like they were stolen from TJ MAXX.

My local Bradlees bought a bunch of Caldor carts (no idea why as they were obviously quite old) and just threw stickers over them.

[jmcnamara96]

[jmcnamara96]

Bad news i could not locate them and i then got lost in the woods so someday ill find them

Today I was at the former Montgomery Ward store in Nashua, NH. Next to the Auto center was a small area fenced off. Inside was 4 shopping carts from the Bradlees store that had been across the street in the Nashua Mall.
101 Nashua Mall
Nashua, NH 03063-3215

Actually I remember their carts being red, so I was surprised to see these which are charcoal colored.

[jmcnamara96]
