I always park next to the cart drop off places. And make sure there is a cart in there. I get out, open the door closest to the carts, get the cart. Then I walk around and undo my oldest. He has to come out on "baby's side". I put the youngest in the cart. Then the oldest. And go in. If I can I make my son a little picture "list" of things we need. If not I give him a sheet of paper for a list, or stickers to keep him busy . When he gets wiggly in the cart I ask him what's on the list or ask him to tell me what "this is" or what color that sticker is.
I've also learned to plan my list and trip based on the store layout. And follow the layout (produce, meats, cooler, ect).
I always bring a carrier in case they need to be separated. It happens. But I'm also the mom who is ok with my kids being covered in stickers.
When we get home I thank them for being good and my oldest gets a "tasty treat". Youngest gets his favourite snack.

Walmart grocery pick up is free if you have one in your area. They load your car for you and will not even take tips if you try.

@mommyoftwok59, girl I like shopping at night when he’s with my mom because every time I go shopping with him he wants to throw tantrums and have to go to the bathroom to put him into timeout.

With my baby girl we got her a toy shopping cart and she gets to put her snacks in it and if shes good at the end we buy her a special juice. (Good2grow) she gets her list with pictures of what we need and the isle # to help her know where to find them. She walks with me and eats her free cookie. We always make it fun. She some times takes a baby to put in the cart too. Try to make sure that every one has had a nap and has eaten at least a small filling snack. Also yes park near a cart corral always.

Feed them and carry sippy cups and bottle . And have a well thought out list to get u through the isles quick. I use gold fish with mines I carry a fanny pack with zip lock bag of gold fish then I turn my phone on you tube looney tunes . And the oldest holds it and watches in the basket.
