Home Depot Houseplant Hearse

When is a shopping cart more than just a shopping cart? When said shopping cart is painted orange and it says The Home Depot on the side. I have to admit that I do feel a bit of guilt because I enable Home Depot when I buy Burpee seeds from them along with other plants including but not limited to my cacti & succulents. But I can't help it, their cheap prices allow the working class the luxury of participating in gardening and general plant growing. Not everyone can afford to be a lazy localvore and pay someone to plant their veggie garden and collect the bounty and place it on their back door once a week. But I digress...

I don't know about any of you but I tend to not use a shopping cart when I visit a Home Depot garden center or shop in the manly section of the store. It gives me the creeps to think about the possibility that the shopping cart I'm pushing once transported dead plants to their graves- er I mean- the trash compactor out behind a Home Depot.
