Publix Super Markets in Atlanta, Georgia will be testing a new high-tech shopping cart.  The new TV Cart is basically for the kids, but really for everyone else visiting the store.

The idea it to keep the little ones quiet by putting them in front of yet another TV, in the actual mini shopping cart.  Kids, and adults, will be delighted to see shows such as Barney, The Wiggles & Bob the Builder.

The carts will be available for $1 and can be used for the length of your visit.  You know, I just can’t help feeling like we’re losing a losing battle to the TV.  Put the kids in front of the TV at home, day care, the dentist & now the grocery.  And I’m wondering if there are going to be any commercoals to get our kids to beg & scream for the latest Fear Factor Pop-Ups.

Tell me what you think.  I’m just a little concerned about relying on a TV to keep the kids at an acceptable public vocal level, that’s our job- right?
