    Or you could follow the basic signs that are written up everywhere and have the basic human decency of returning the thing that you took in the first place

      what signs? Only a few stores have any signs explicitly mentioning where carts should go, it’s just typically common sense that it shouldn’t go in the middle of the road.

        No, it’s every store. They have to. If they didn’t have the signs put up then they could be legally liable for any accidents involving free carts in the parking lot. By having the signs up they avoid that responsibility by putting it on you.

        This really is just about basic common decency. The rest of us put the carts back because we still have some.

          Oh you mean the liability signs? Yeah if you let lawyers near anything they will put up signs. Those signs just say the store isn’t liable, park at your own risk. They do that so if there’s a lawsuit they have better ground on which to force a settlement. The signs themselves aren’t legally binding, that’s a hilarious concept.

          This is why you put the lawyers in the corner with blinders on and a nice heartwarming Hallmark movie playing so they don’t go crazy from a mixture of cocaine and anxiety.

            No, not even those. The ones that literally say “Please put your cart back in the corral”.

              I’ve never seen such a sign.

              But I also would never in my life call it a corral unprompted, so presumably you’re encountering the idea that your local experiences are not universal for the first time in your life. It’s rough, but you’ll make it through.
