Abstract
A combination nesting stop and stabilizer bracket for use with a shopping cart having a lading-carrying basket of wire construction constructed so that one shopping cart can be telescoped within a cart of similar construction during storage of the carts. The device prevents the basket from being twisted out of shape to force the bottom portion of the hinged rear wall of the basket into the gap on either side between that bottom portion and the side walls of the basket. At the same time, it prevents the bight of the relatively heavy wire U-shaped rear rim element of the basket framework of a first cart from being forced into a gap between the bottom wires of the basket and the horizontally disposed support element at the front of the tubular elevated support frame of a second cart that is telescoped within the first cart.
