It’s like being in an ice cream shop – sooo many Cart Bosses to choose from – Cart Boss Plastic, mini, Cart Boss Quarters, Loonies, Metal, Red Green Blue Bronze Black…<\/p>

It’s because the stores in our country can’t make up their minds.\u00a0 We got Quarter carts, loonie carts, plug type carts and Slot type Carts.\u00a0 4 combos.\u00a0 And, a Cart Boss to combat each – depending on which cart you have in your area. If I were them I’d probably just make them all Toonies ie. the most expensive coin.\u00a0 A quarter is hardly worth my time.\u00a0 A Toonie on the other hand…<\/p>

And then there are the places which don’t even have locked carts – some lucky duckies those shoppers are.<\/p>

Anyway, we got 3 main types:
Cart Boss OG<\/a>
Cart Boss the Crocogator<\/a>
Cart Boss Mini<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Cart Boss OG is for the slot type cart.\u00a0 Allows you to unlock, remove the key and put it back into your pocket before\u00a0 shopping.\u00a0 \u00a0Most carts in the country are of the slot type – a single slot for a coin, and that’s it.\u00a0 Easy enough.\u00a0 Some carts take loonies, others take quarters.\u00a0 So, if you frequent at a place with the slot type cart, grab the Cart Boss.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

\"\"

Slot-type Cart<\/p><\/div>

Now some of us go to stores which have loonie slot carts and quarter slot carts.\u00a0 You could carry a quarter Cart Boss and a Loonie Cart Boss of different colors, or carry the Cart Boss Crocogator – the double-sided lightsaber of the Cart Boss world.\u00a0 One side is for quarters, and the other loonie carts, with a slot to slide your key-ring from one side to the other.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

As for the infamous plug type carts which aren’t really famous anymore because they are disappearing across Canada one by one – we got the Cart Boss Mini. The OG\/Croco won’t work on these ones.\u00a0<\/p>

\"\"

Plug Cart<\/p><\/div>

Plug Cart again<\/p><\/div>

CB Mini comes with a snap hook to quickly attach and detach it. It works like a loonie, but it’s way lighter, easily detaches from your key-ring, it’s your favorite colour, and brushed anodized aluminum finished. So you’ll never forget it, it’s fast to use, and it’s got great looks. The only thing here is that it stays in the darn cart. So it’ll work on any cart, plug or slot, but it stays inside the thing which is what differentiates the mini from the OG & the Croco.<\/p>

But for the love of Gorbjorbs, please please PLEASE, if you’re gonna use your CB mini on a slot cart, don’t do this:<\/p>

\"\"

No!<\/p><\/div>

Someone can run off with your cart, take your keys and nab your car.\u00a0 Don’t leave the keys dangling from the cart.\u00a0 Ever.\u00a0 This is why we include the snap hook with our CB mini.\u00a0\u00a0But anyway, slot carts should be used with the OG or the Croco.<\/p>

Why’d we make them out of aluminum?\u00a0 It’s the perfect metal for this.\u00a0 Carrying more than one cart boss is nothing when each of them weighs like 2-3 grams.\u00a0 My car key weighs 20g – all steel.\u00a0 A loonie weighs aroung 6g.\u00a0 In comparison, A loonie CB mini weighs 2.\u00a0 I certainly don’t feel it.\u00a0 Now if all of these were made of steel (which\u00a0is cheaper than aluminum by the way<\/a>), they would be heavy and eventually would rust.\u00a0 Yes, eventually stainless steel rusts too.<\/p>

But, our aluminum is strong – it’s locally CNC’d, not some pot metal alloy made by pot smokers smoking pot as they pour the pot metal into the pot, so they are pretty much indestructible for the application!\u00a0<\/p>

And, not to forget the blue and gold classic plastic ones we started out with in April 2018!\u00a0 Yup, we still sell a TON of them every day.\u00a0 The cheaper alternative to the premium metal ones, they still do the same thing at a lower price point!\u00a0 So everyone can choose their favorite Cart Boss.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Here’s my setup: I got A mini loonie and a mini quarter for the plug carts, and a Crocogator for the slot carts.\u00a0 Because in rainy Greater Vancouver we got every cart imaginable. Even some Canadian Tires here have 25c slot carts. Total weight of cart bosses: 7g.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>
