    I used to work at a Target within the same design. Fun fact, the cart escalators are actually run slightly slower than the human escalators, so you always arrive just before your cart does.

    I have NEVER seen a cart escalator before, and I've never been in a two-story Target! But then, I live in the Midwest where we don't have these kind of stores. Pretty cool!

      Pretty sure there are a few multi levels in Miami! Back when I stayed at solar Surfside, we saw a multi level Publix where they had conveyor belts for people to use. There is also a multi level target there. Unfortunately, after the collapse of solara's neighbor building, my family won't stay there ever again.

    There’s a similar situation at the Kmart store in West Orange, NJ. It opened as an EJ Korvette’s department store in the 70s, became a Caldor in the 80s, and finally reopened as a Big Kmart after Caldor’s bankruptcy in the late 90s. I’m not sure if the cart escalators are original to Korvette’s, but they’re a really cool feature of a rather unique Kmart!

    That’s so cool. The first time I saw a cart escalator was in Taiwan. I was studying Chinese there. My classmates took me to a huge shopping center with multiple levels. I was amazed about the fact that if you got stuff in your cart one one level you could just take it to the next one and keep shopping. I probably was staring with googly eyes, which was probably funny to my classmates. The shopping mall and grocery stores in my town are just one floor. Whenever I go to bigger cities to shop I think, “ohh yeah, they actually need escalators!”

    In the UK, our shopping trolleys have special wheels that lock into grooves on a modified escalator that has no stairs. Basically just an inclined travellator.
    It's basically the shopping trolley escalator and a normal escalator combined.

    I have a childish love for cartalators. I used to shop at the Whole Foods on Park Lana in Dallas in part because they had one. There’s a Walmart in Shenzhen that has an interesting twist. The have a moving ramp way. It has the magic on it to lock the cart wheels, so the carts mostly stay in place til the top.

    In France is not like that, the carts escalators are just a "rolling" carpet and peoples can bring their carts in the escalator with an ingenious system: the wells of the cart are "stuck" in the carpet so peoples can do other things without holding their cart and the cart doesn't fall!
