Jennifer Garner and Violet Start Life of Crime

Posted by Whit Honea

 

Anyone that reads FameCrawler with even a passing interest knows that I loves me some Jennifer and Violet.  They're so stinking sweet they make my teeth hurt.  That's why I was alarmed to see this photo of them leaving CVS with a cart full of summer fun.

I happen to know from repeated firsthand experience that those carts with cars attached are not allowed to leave the store.  You may not find a single person to help you while shopping, but the minute you're pushing two screaming kids in a car cart filled with cough syrup and frozen pizzas through the front door the employees come out of the woodwork.

Sir! Sir! That cart needs to stay in the store.  Sir! You need to pay for those pizzas!

I guess the stars have different rules.  Obviously they let her take it because at this stage of the parking lot I'm usually in full sprint.

wow thats really stupid. If you have to use one of those embarassing carts that means you have kids. which means its harder to carry those kids PLUS the groceries you've purchased. Its kinda easier to push the cart outside. They're seriously afraid you're going to STEAL the car cart??

I don't think they're afraid of the parent stealing the cart so much as others that might see it in the parking lot. Of course, it's safe to say that Jen and Ben probably live in a better neighborhood than I do.

Both our neighborhood grocery stores allow us to take them outside.

Yeah, around here you can take them to the car.

I just wish those damn things were never invented. My 2 year old always wants one, but as soon as we get inside, she wants out, and repeatedly asks to get out. If I try to get her out, she wants the car again. I think she likes the novelty of the car but doesn't like not seeing what's going on in the cart. I hate those things. Plus you're bumping into things as you try to steer the SUV around the store. Ugh. I love stores that don't have them.
