How hard is it to push your shopping cart that extra few feet to the cart corral? |

I just realized the other day that I could quite simply drive right into them with my car, and if I go slow enough, they'd stay right in front of my car. I can then take that same shopping cart into the store with me. No need to walk that few extra feet to go get a different one. I think leaving shopping carts scattered around the parking lot is a good idea, since everyone can't park next to the shopping cart corral. Less work for me when the shopping carts are conveniently scattered around my favorite parking spaces.
Or, you could always just shop at stores that have coin operated locks on each cart. Only store I've seen in the US that does that though are the new Aldi markets that are popping up. Almost every store in Finland has coin lock carts though. People tend to return carts to the corral when they can't get their coin back otherwise. Start a campaign for your local supermarket to get coin lock carts. Hm, but then the kids they hire to herd all the carts back at the end of the day will be out of jobs...
I say just drive into the carts that are in your way.

Second, nobody was around to bitch at you. Third, you could smoke. Fourth, you could play Cart Wars if a second person joined you to "help." Fifth... wow I'm starting to miss K-mart. Well, maybe not.
