In a shopping cart comprising a wheeled chassis, a handle structure including two handle uprights extending upwardly from the wheeled chassis, and a basket supported on the wheeled chassis and fastened to the handle uprights, two clips are employed for fastening the basket to the wheeled chassis. Each clip is fastened to an associated, generally horizontally extending portion of a frame of the wheeled chassis, beneath one of the side walls of the basket. Each clip has an upper, flanged end, which extends at least partly into an associated recess provided in one of the side walls of the basket and a lower, curved end, which conforms generally to and extends at least partly beneath the associated, generally horizontally extending portion of the frame. The frame of the wheeled chassis includes a tubular member defining the generally horizontally extending portions, to which the clips are riveted.
