I just had to laugh, because once you were after those cheap grater or so.

Just a little fun

I would try Ikea (always cheap).

Don't have any, otherwise you could have mine.

Thanks for your advice but I tried them last week, but found them a bit uncomfortable as I could not pull them to the bus with stuffs.

Would a Google Translated version be alright for you ?

Try Einkaufswagen.

Re: Wanted cheap shopping trolley/cart [Luzern]

IKEA sells shopping-trolleys, as does Globus (Reisenthel brand)

If you want something really big I would try to find a cheap bike trailer that can be pushed like a stroller (Brocki maybe or ricardo has some for sale?)

or - if money does not matter, try this: http://www.amazon.com/BOB-Revolution.../dp/B0011XWRZG

Re: Wanted cheap shopping trolley/cart [Luzern]

Ikiea definately has them... go there and take a look. They're a bit plasticky but that's to be expected... you get what you pay for! There's also a home-style, "sell everything" shop next to Athleticum in Zurich that has them in the window... can't remember the name of the shop but it's literally just on the opposite side of the road a bit further down from The North Face.

Re: Wanted cheap shopping trolley/cart [Luzern]

I bought a really good shopping buggy at Manor 10 years ago. It was expensive but you get what you pay for as it is still in good condition. I took it overseas with me and brought it home.

What you are looking for in German is called an "Einkaufstrolley" or "Einkaufsroller". If you want a good deal on a used one, try looking on Ricardo.

Re: Wanted cheap shopping trolley/cart [Luzern]

An easy way to look for things on the IKEA website if you don't speak German is to go to the English site and find the item and then copy and paste the name of the item into the Swiss IKEA website. Items have the same name whichever country you buy them from.

For example, I just searched for 'trolley' on the English IKEA website and found something which may be suitable for you. It's called 'FRAKTA'. So I typed this into IKEA.ch and it came up with the same range...

http://www.ikea.com/ch/de/catalog/products/S79875197

I recently bought a shopping trolley from IKEA (Dietlikon) and it is fantastic. I can't find it on their website, but I found it in the section where they sell things like fluorescent jackets, bath robes etc. It comes in either pink or black and it was 29.95 with a IKEA family card or 39.95 without. Well worth the money, you can fit so much stuff in it!

Good luck with the search!

Re: Wanted cheap shopping trolley/cart [Luzern]

We got our trolley from the local Salvation Army second-hand store, which I believe is Heils Armee in German (Armee du Salut in French). They have a website somewhere which lists all the locations in Switzerland.
