  You return your cart because it’s the right thing to do

  I return my cart to get my euro back that I put in to unlock it

    Mr fancy pants here with full euro coins.

    I treasure my red plastic €0.50 coin replica more than my life.

      You guys can use €0.50 coins?! Over here in Australia it’s either a $1 or $2 coin. I wish I could chuck a 50¢ piece in the trolley.

        50 eurocent coins are actually about the same size as 1 and 2 euro coins, so that’s why

      Why not just 3D print a few more?

        Why 3d print them when the same supermarket gives them out for free?

    what I don’t get is when there’s multiple rows of carts, people often put their cart in the row that is already the longest, instead of putting it in the shortest one to balance it out

      Sheep mentality, another way in which the shopping cart is the mirror of our society

      I’ll also go fetch a couple on the way if I see some hanging out. It’s not because I’m trying to make the cart wrangler’s job easier, but because it’s not orderly and it bothers me. I have to consciously limit myself or I’d end up patrolling the whole lot.
