finally I did it

You've spent hours shopping at the same store?

I know I have been in a store in for more then an hour before, and I know ive been to a store more then once. it compiles.

I don't get it. What do you mean plug the key in on itself?

Where is this? I've never seen it in the U.S. This definitely needs to be everywhere.

Really? Wow, every shop (bar tesco) uses this in the uk. You put a pound, euro or token (you can buy it and have it on a key ring). Also lots of places have magnets in the wheels meaning you can't take them away from the store, and on travelators (imagine escalators without the stairs) they stay still. In a town center near me, there is a signal stopping you from taking trolleys past a certain point.

Yes, we have those travelators here in Peru too. (I'm an American living in Peru, sorry for any confusion)

And here in Peru, we also have lockers with the same concept. You put in a coin, lock your stuff in the locker and take out the key. When you put the key back in and get your stuff, you get your coin back.

Yeah, we have that too haha. But to be fair, you put a £ in, you nick the trolley and all you lose is a £ haha. We even have lockers to put your trolly in while you eat a cafe or summin haha

they got those ******* in new york state too.

'Straya as well.

if it's not in New York City it doesn't matter.

They have this Canada that was my face when i first saw it

It's called a security deposit, it incentivizes returning your cart so the employees don't have to hike around the parking lot collecting them.

So... I completely got mad seeing the word "incentivizes" because, hell that doesn't even sound like a real word. But rather than immediately rage like an illiterate Neanderthal I looked it up on Google; lo and behold it's an actual word... The English language really sucks. Kudos on your vocabulary 'ol chap. Gif unrelated.

Plus it can be good profit for homeless people.

Thanks, I live on the west coast so I guess I'm a little ill-informed

WEST COAST?! WEST COOAAAASSSTTT!!!

west coast never gets the cool stuff like the east does v.v

Are you in southern/central/northern Illinois?

Wait, YOU 'mericans don't have this awesome thing?

HA!

Proud to be educated so I can prove that not all American's are stupid.

From Aldi's website,

"Why do I need a quarter to use a shopping cart at ALDI?

At ALDI, we cut costs every way we can to keep prices low. Our shopping cart deposit system is a good example. You insert a quarter to release a cart. When you return the cart, you get your quarter back. This system cuts down on the labor of collecting carts left in the parking lot, damage to cars, and we pass the savings on to you."

*Americans

No, I know Aldi's uses pay-to-use shopping carts, but it more than makes up for it because IT'S ******* ALDI'S!(I live in urban Georgia)

You have Aldi in America? That's awesome.

I know! It's really spread out where I live, like only 10 in the entire state of Georgia(if you know how large or small that is), but I am lucky enough to have one right down the street that is so close that I can just walk.

All over the place in Britain now. Well, they are in my hometown. Cheap food, and some of the stuff you find in that place is so much better than the well known brands.

we have like 4 in my town (Springfield MO)

or sucking your own dick.. and i've managed both.....let's never speak of this again

Wanna know how i got these scars?

Hey.. How you doin'?

Oh baby

he basically made the cart **** itself

WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT?! :(

In big supermarkets, in order for them to keep their trolleys, they have a connecter and a string. to keep them together, that string on the left with the red head connects to another trolley and so on,keeping them together. you need to insert a coin to take it out.

Many of us during our childhood have tried to put it the same connector, but it was impossible. i guess its not.

:)

thanks for telling me and not being a total douche about it.

np

if you live in the states, that type of cart is usually seen at aldi's

The chains are supposed to be short enough that you can't put them into the thing they're attached to.
It's meant to lower the rate of cart theft, because who doesn't want their quarter back, right?

huh
well **** i guess i should be impressed don't know what country thats in
but good job to him i guess
