“There’s been a lot of studies that have shown it’s almost one of the dirtiest things in a grocery store,” Adam Labadie told WFTS.

Since then, he has spent his days working in his garage, making changes and tweaks to his invention, which is something he said would eliminate grocery store wipes with just the touch of a button.

His invention is designed to clean shopping carts and it’s known as “The Arch Cart Sanitizer.”

“So we’ll be sending out demos, free demos to grocers. Some in the northeast and some in south in about three weeks,” Labadie said.
