Texas Is About To See A New Type Of Cart At Walmart

All of us have to shop for something in Texas every day.

Some of us might need food to prepare, or maybe even some more personal items. We also might not be alone when shopping, as some of us may bring the little ones with us to the store. Whenever or wherever we shop, it always seems to be packed.

Some Texans however, may not bode well with a loud or perhaps bright shopping area. Those with disabilities may need help when they are getting their items, or they might go earlier during hours that are less intense. One business, Walmart, is set to roll out a new type of cart to assist those with special needs.

It's known as “Caroline’s Carts." Here's how they help a certain type of individual.
