I have seen and reprimanded people who just push the basket towards the receptacle which usually ends up hitting a car. I got on to one young lady, she just F ed. me off and drove away. disgusting generation.
We have a store "Alde" (spelling?), where you put a quarter in basket coin slot to release, when you bring it back the chain inserted will release the quarter. NO SHOPPING CARTS IN THE PARKING AREA. That is an idea I wish would catch on in ALL MALLS.
Aldi’s. A good place for that, and a lot of deals, too.
