      This is a completely artificial US problem that has been completely solved in Germany and many other countries by requiring a 1€ deposit to unlock the cart and returning it when you relock it. So, complain to the store for failing to use basic countermeasures.

        They have stopped doing that in Norway, at least here. Not sure if it was a corona effect or if they thought it wasnt worth it in terms of customers either shopping somewhere else or shopping less because they take a small shopping basket instead.

      I return my cart to the corral and any other carts I see along the way.

      Even if other people are using them.

      Answering No is one of the few exceptions I make in my stance against the death penalty. One strike, no trial, instant death sentence to be carried out by the nearest available citizen using the most convenient method as picked by the executioner.

        I’m disabled - walking and standing are very difficult and painful for me - leaving the shopping cart as near as possible to the disabled bay without it being an obstruction is the right thing to do. You can immediately get the support of something to lean on as soon as possible after leaving the car.

        Just something to consider. I now submit to your judgment for your death penalty :D
