If you're anything like us, you'll know how frustrating it can be to struggle with grocery bags while walking around the shops.

If you're a Woolworths shopper and you're tired of carrying bags, then we've got some news for you!

It seems like every other day, we here at the SDC stumble upon another new ‘insider’ secret that loyal Woolies employees have shared with the world.

This time around, it was an employee who took to social media to share what he thinks is the real purpose of the ‘secret’ hooks.

Have you noticed the hook placed below the handle on the back of trolleys?

It made headlines recently after some customers revealed that they used it to hold onto their roast chooks while shopping.

It makes sense as well, given we want to keep our hot and cold groceries separate.

But according to Liam Kirley, an employee at Woolies, the hook’s main purpose was sadly not to hold onto roast chooks.

In a video, Liam was seen explaining that the hook was ‘originally used’ for storing hats and reusable shopping bags – nothing to do with chooks!

​

'Here is a Woolworths trolley hack,' the employee said in the clip.

'Every Woolworths trolley has a courtesy hook so you can hang your hat or your reusable bags.'

Naturally, this assertion sparked a heated debate among shoppers. After all, most customers believed that the hook was invented for the purpose of keeping items, such as roast chickens, away from other groceries.

'Definitely for roast chook,' one commented.

'It's good for your roast chicken so it doesn’t spoil other food,' added another.

So Liam isn’t the only one using the trolley hook to his advantage. As we’ve discovered, some shoppers use it to hang handbags and pocket items such as keyrings while shopping!

'I use it for my bags and my roast chicken,' declared one shopper.

'My mum hangs her purse off it,' remarked another.

Besides revealing the ‘real’ intent of the trolley hook, Liam also shared some other helpful Woolworths shopping hacks.

For instance, he suggested setting a reminder on the Woolies app to remind you to grab your reusable bags before heading over.

'If you're like me and forget your bags, you can set a reminder on the Woolworths app to tell you when you arrive at the store to get your bags,' he explained in the clip.

​

Key Takeaways

• A Woolworths worker revealed what he believes the true purpose of the trolley hook is.
• Many shoppers disagreed and admitted they have been using the hook to hold roast chickens.
• Other shoppers said they use the hook for handbags and pocket items, such as key rings.

There you have it, folks! If you’ve been using the Woolworths 'secret' trolley hook for items like roast chickens, it seems you may have been using it incorrectly all this time – who knew?

However, it’s worth bearing in mind that you can use the trolley hook for whatever you please and it won’t cost you a cent.

We still use a mask when we shop having recently caught and suffered Covid so when we enter the shop I grab a piece of the material used for wiping down the trolley handles and the area where children sit. I then leave that in the trolley so that I can moisten my fingers so that I can open the plastic bags for our greengrocery items, it is better than trying to lick my fingers whilst wearing a mask.

 

[PattiB]

Do people not use their brains? How would it not make perfect sense to hang your bags on the hook? I'm blown away that people have to be told!

Exactly! I’ve always hung my bags on the hook, shop online so not a problem any more.

If you're a Woolworths shopper and you're tired of carrying bags, then we've got some news for you!



It seems like every other day, we here at the SDC stumble upon another new ‘insider’ secret that loyal Woolies employees have shared with the world.



This time around, it was an employee who took to social media to share what he thinks is the real purpose of the ‘secret’ hooks.



Have you noticed the hook placed below the handle on the back of trolleys?

It made headlines recently after some customers revealed that they used it to hold onto their roast chooks while shopping.



It makes sense as well, given we want to keep our hot and cold groceries separate.



But according to Liam Kirley, an employee at Woolies, the hook’s main purpose was sadly not to hold onto roast chooks.



In a video, Liam was seen explaining that the hook was ‘originally used’ for storing hats and reusable shopping bags – nothing to do with chooks!







'Here is a Woolworths trolley hack,' the employee said in the clip.



'Every Woolworths trolley has a courtesy hook so you can hang your hat or your reusable bags.'



Naturally, this assertion sparked a heated debate among shoppers. After all, most customers believed that the hook was invented for the purpose of keeping items, such as roast chickens, away from other groceries.

'Definitely for roast chook,' one commented.



'It's good for your roast chicken so it doesn’t spoil other food,' added another.

So Liam isn’t the only one using the trolley hook to his advantage. As we’ve discovered, some shoppers use it to hang handbags and pocket items such as keyrings while shopping!



'I use it for my bags and my roast chicken,' declared one shopper.



'My mum hangs her purse off it,' remarked another.

Besides revealing the ‘real’ intent of the trolley hook, Liam also shared some other helpful Woolworths shopping hacks.



For instance, he suggested setting a reminder on the Woolies app to remind you to grab your reusable bags before heading over.



'If you're like me and forget your bags, you can set a reminder on the Woolworths app to tell you when you arrive at the store to get your bags,' he explained in the clip.
