A method of immobilizing a shopping cart has the steps: a) providing a shopping cart braking system mountable to a forward frame member of a shopping cart, the braking system having a bracket, an axle within the bracket, an arm pivotally affixed to the axle and having a distal end pivotable about the axle between a horizontal position and a vertical braking position, with a resilient brakepad affixed to the distal end of the arm; b) mounting the braking system to a forward frame member of a shopping cart; and c) pivoting the arm from the horizontal to the braking position with the resilient brakepad acting as a brake preventing movement of the shopping cart.
