Abstract: An accessory tray is connected to, or extends integrally from, a shopping cart handle and extends a limited distance forward from the handle. The tray extends forward above, but not significantly interfering with, the child-seat area of the cart. Preferably, the forward extremity is not directly connected or attached to the cart, but rather the tray is cantilevered from its rear end/edge fixed to/at the handle and extends otherwise unconnected forward from the handle. A forward tray portion may rest on, or be close to, an upper portion/end of the cart rear wall. The preferred tray is substantially planar, featuring a single, flat platform with an upending rim, wherein no part extends above said top level of the handle. The tray remains in place for nesting of multiple carts, and is received in a space between nested portions of the cart to which it is connected.
