Son K and I were at Costco the other day. We shopped and he was tasked with getting all the stuff into the car while I went to the washroom. Once we arrived at home, I said 'where are the socks I bought?' They had been sitting at the top end of the cart in the 'baby seat'. K had been so busy getting the toilet paper and case of diet coke from the middle and bottom row of the cart he completely missed the two 6-packs of socks in the front! Off we went back to Costco, but the socks were gone within that half hour.
At customer service, this man was ahead of us with a similar problem. His whole cart of purchases had gone missing. He said his baby had been crying and he got distracted and drove home without unloading his cart of purchases! He had diapers and bottled water and a whole bunch of stuff. Customer service had pages listing found items but we were not lucky, and neither was this poor man. This must happen all the time and some people do recover their items.
I don't think this was a lesson learned, more of 'things happen'. I re-purchased the socks and we moved on!
