COMMERCE, Ga. (AP) — A Georgia couple got so carried away with snagging Black Friday deals, authorities say they left their kids alone in a shopping cart.

Banks County Sheriff Charles Chapman tells WSB radio that 35-year-old Mario Navarro and 31-year-old Esmeralda Elias have been charged with reckless conduct.

Chapman said the two left their 9-year-old and 9-month-old children in a shopping cart at the Banks Crossing Walmart so they could go shopping.

Chapman tells WSB he figures the couple thought the kids would slow them down. The children were not harmed.

This is actually pretty common, back when I worked for Walmart people used to leave their kids in the toy department while they went and finished their shopping then they would come retrieve the kids when ready to checkout,
