You know that moment when you finally spot an empty parking space from far away, and you start celebrating like you just won a mini lottery? Then you get closer… and there’s a shopping cart sitting right in the middle of the spot. Major side-eye.
It’s one of those tiny things that somehow feels like a personal insult, especially when the parking lot is basically empty. You’re not asking for much. Just a clear space and a cart returned to its home. Is that too much?

The cart dilemma
Dubai residents are not staying quiet about it. People took to social media to call out shoppers who leave carts in empty parking bays instead of returning them. And honestly, the reactions are iconic.
Some comments were straight-up savage, like “money doesn’t buy class” and “bring your cart back, be good people.” Others went full “law and order” and said this behaviour should have consequences.
“Make it a rule” energy
One person even suggested that Dubai Police or RTA should install cameras in mall parkings to catch the cart offenders. Not sure if that’s a bit much, but the frustration is real.
Because once you see a cart blocking a spot, you start thinking: “This is what happens when people assume someone else will do it for them.”
People aren’t asking for a medal, just basic common courtesy. Returning a cart takes 10 seconds. Leaving it in the parking spot takes zero effort… but somehow it still gets missed.
A simple request…
If you’re someone who leaves carts in parking spots, it’s worth a quick reminder:
Returning a cart only takes a few seconds, and it makes the whole parking experience smoother for everyone.
It’s a small habit that goes a long way, and honestly, it’s just a nicer way to shop.
Because at the end of the day, we’re all just trying to park and move on. No cart drama needed.
