Anyone have these shelves and can measure if they are a solid 36" wide or slightly under? I have a niche I'd like to put these in but the space is 35 1/2"

Bring a big bag. If it gets too heavy to carry you know you’ve gone too far.

If I can’t fit it in the big blue ikea bag it can’t come home with me.

Those breaded frozen chicken chunks are truly a new staple. I found Panda Express sells all their sauces now at grocery stores and I tossed them in their Orange Chicken sauce. So good.

The bare naked ones are really nice because they're the only breaded chicken product ive found with no alliums so we can actually use them in my house. Its a great shortcut food for so much other stuff. I really really hope they dont stop selling them ever.

lol everyone says something like that every time I mention it but honestly its just like being allergic to any other pervasive ingredient. Ended up making us a lot healthier since almost all fast food is no longer a choice.

Real pain though when favorites get changed. The costco lobster and cheese ravioli used to be allium free then like 2 years ago they changed them and i wanted to cry.

I have these shelves in my laundry room and they are in fact a full 36" wide, maybe an eighth to a quarter inch over, sorry to say.

i don't have a dog in this hunt, but i saw an old guy using an empty shopping cart as a walker fall flat on his face once when it slipped away because he leaned on it too hard. i don't recommend them as mobility aids.

Did he return it to the corral though?

He shoulda put some cat litter in the front as soon as possible.

One of the annoying things about US currency is that our most valuable common* coin is $.25. In this day and age, that's almost worthless so most people don't carry coins. Any "put in a coin to unlock the cart" scheme is doomed because nobody has coins on them.

We need to abolish the penny and the nickel, and universally replace the $1 and $2 bill with coins.

* we do have $1 coins, but they're impossible to find and nobody knows how to use them

This happened in Denver too, I was surprised and annoyed when I fed it a $20, bought a $4 ticket and had sixteen dollar coins to deal with.
