Every single shopping cart I’ve seen requires you to insert a coin to be unlocked, which you get back when you return it. Do other countries not have that?
We stopped doing it in Norway many years ago when society moved to debit cards. I would have assumed most of Western Europe to have made the change by now?
Nah, they are too expensive to upkeep in the US. Grocery stores from Europe like Aldi keep trying the cart locks but we’re very resistant to them and will do basically anything but put the coin in including break them.
