Abstract: The present invention provides a sanitary shopping cart organizer device in which a material is attached to a handle of a shopping cart. The material provides a barrier to germs or dirt on the handle or the shopping cart. Preferably, the material is a durable material, such as a backpack material. The material can include a coating to provide waterproofing or wiping down of liquids or dirt from the material. In one embodiment, the material is formed of fabric to allow machine washing and drying and to provide comfort to a user such that the temperature of the handle is not felt by the user. The device can be expeditiously attached to the handle of the shopping cart, for example with a VELCRO® material. One or more pockets can be formed in a front surface of the device. The pockets can be used to hold, for example, a shopping list, coupons, pad, pen, eyeglasses, key and the like. The device can be formed of a single piece of material.
