None of the others in town have these, thought it was unusual enough to share

    My local store uses these but they lock up if you bring them out to the 2nd row of parking spaces out front. It’s enough to get the cart to your car, then you go to return it and it’s totally locked, so everyone just shoves them into the planters in a big pile of tipped over carts instead of physically lifting the whole thing and hefting it to the cart returns to return it. The store has signs everywhere now telling people not to throw carts into the planters, and the employees know the problem, and the city has evidently complained multiple times, but district management evidently refuses to believe it’s got anything to do with the cart locks and I was told by an exasperated checker that they’re apparently considering getting security guards to confront people and make them return carts?? lmaooo

        Yup. Never not returned a cart. The day it becomes actively frustrating to do so is the day I place it somewhere really inconvenient out of spite. Maybe figure out the managers car and corral it in.

      apparently considering getting security guards to confront people and make them return carts?

      Oh that’s going to go down just great. How long until some rent-a-cop ends up under a car?
