It’s probably been 20 years since he was last in a supermarket. He probably gets everything delivered to his house.

The only store I know of that does this in the U.S. is Aldi’s.

I would not describe it as “common” though I agree he overhyped it. He also seemed amazed that food in poor countries is cheaper than in the US. He should ask the cashiers how long they work per day and what their salaries are before spending too much time talking about affordability.

“despite it being pretty common across the US “

No. It is not common.

I’ve never seen it in my almost 80 years. And I do the shopping.

Aldi. We do this all the time in Ohio.

And why do these sites make it literally impossible to read their articles due to being blasted with constant ads and videos. I get having ads. But why would you want your site to be “unbrowseable”?

Aldi’s recently bought Winn-Dixie and Harvey’s, so it is likely to become more common. OTOH, practically every time I have been to the local Aldi’s, shoppers leaving the store simply hand over their cart to a shopper entering, to avoid the middleman.

One more thing. This is similar to when GHWB was surprised at the scanners at a grocery store, which the MSM loved because they could make him look out of touch with the little man, unlike BJ Clinton, who was and still is more out of touch.

Aldis does this and has stores in a number of US metro areas.

One was built bear me a few years ago. Neighborhood it is near fought like the devil to prevent it from being built but it finally went through.

They will attack him over anything they can find. Or they will make it up. He doesn’t support their party line so must be destroyed.

I have never seen this in the U.S. Granted, I've never been to SD, ND, ID, NE, WA or IA. Maybe it's a thing in semirhomboidal states.

Zimbabwe has a trillion dollar bill. Does that make them wealthy?

What about the Weimar Republic. It took a barrel of money to get a loaf of bread.

More money does not equall more wealth.

It means inflation and depreciation of the dollar.

Airport luggage carts? I’ve seen that system several times so the concept isn’t that strange.
