I'm sure you are not alone. I guess the problem is the nightmare it would create having everyone pushing around a cart since mall stores tend to me relatively small and compact. Plus, everyone would need the elevator to get from floor to floor with their carts. It would probably be a logistical nightmare.

On a related note, there is a 2-story Target store nearby that has a really cool shopping cart escalator that runs alongside the people escalator. So you push your cart onto the conveyor and you ride next to it as you go up or down. I've never seen anything like it anywhere else. I guess the malls could use that same system if they wanted to.
