the bottom plate comprises three bottom clip slots;

the back plate comprises three bottom locking clips coupled to a back plate inner surface adjacent a back plate bottom edge; and

each of the three bottom locking clips couple to one of the three bottom clip slots, thereby coupling the back plate to the bottom plate.

6. The shopping cart bagging station of claim 5 , wherein the three bottom locking clips extend through the bottom plate from a bottom plate inner surface to a bottom plate outer surface.

7. The shopping cart bagging station of claim 1 , wherein the shopping cart bagging station comprises two handle holder hooks coupled to the top plate inner surface on either side of the at least one bag holder hook.

8. The shopping cart bagging station of claim 7 , wherein the at least one bag holder hook and the two handle holder hooks are J-hooks, and wherein the at least one bag holder hook and the two handle holder hooks all face the back plate.

9. The shopping cart bagging station of claim 7 , wherein the at least one bag holder hook and the two handle holder hooks are J-hooks, and wherein the at least one bag holder hook faces the back plate, and the two handle holder hooks each face the front plate.

10. The shopping cart bagging station of claim 1 , wherein the cart coupling hook faces towards the bottom plate.

11. The shopping cart bagging station of claim 1 , further comprising a stabilizer bar extending from the back plate outer surface in a direction perpendicular to the back plate.

12. The shopping cart bagging station of claim 11 , further comprising a connecting bar extending between the cart coupling hook and the stabilizer bar.
