Shopping cart escalators in Switzerland vs Checkers Sixty60
The best part about watching this video? Reading the comment from a South African who punts our door-to-door delivery services...
Living abroad can be an eye-opening experience, with cultural differences often taking you by surprise.
Whether you’ve emigrated permanently or are just enjoying an extended holiday, the customs and infrastructure of a foreign country can sometimes leave you feeling bewildered.
For example, in Germany, we've seen doorless elevators, a concept that might raise eyebrows among safety-conscious individuals.
And now, we're introduced to another fascinating innovation: shopping cart escalators.
A content creator, sharing her life after moving to Switzerland, often gives her followers a glimpse into life in a first-world country.
Switzerland, known for its high standard of living, has one such interesting feature: shopping cart escalators, which are considered a necessary addition in shopping malls to make life more convenient.
We can all agree that navigating an elevator with a shopping cart can be a hassle, so shopping cart escalators might seem like a convenient alternative. But is it really necessary?

What caught our attention wasn't the travelling trolley escalator – it was the witty South Africans in the comments section, confidently recommending Checkers Sixty60 to the content creator.
Noemi wrote, "In South Africa, just order your groceries online, and checkers will deliver to your doorstep."
The content creator responded, "That’s cool!"
What can we say? Travelling escalator trolleys can't quite compete with the convenience of receiving your Checkers Sixty60 order straight to your door.
