Social Science Do you return your shopping cart?

[Caesar]

Simple question.

 

[FRUMPY]

Yep, see them in Bunnings carparks just left everywhere and think 'you lazy pricks'

Every time

 

[brutus76]

Of course - i see plenty of lazy fruits who can't go the extra 20 yards

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Yes. When I’ve got my kids with me I try to park next to a trolley return so I don’t have to schlep them all through the car park.

 

[74561347]

no, i need a place to put my cans

 

[Kram]

Yeah because if it gets windy they can get rolling and whack into people's cars.

 

[Pistol Night]

I do it coz it’s easier than putting the kids in the car. I slowly wheel it back and by the time I return all the shopping, kids and s**t are loaded. (By the missus of course, not some bum I pay at the carpark)

 

[MatthewB]

Always do, it takes a extra minute to do it

 

[Freofalcon]

People who don’t put their trollies away are on the same level of a-hole as people who don’t pick up their dog poo.

One of those small things that separates human society from the animal kingdom. Those who don't belong in the wild as far as I'm concerned.

 

[perthblue]

Yes I do. Leaving them in the middle of carparks is the height of selfish and lazy behaviour. And this coming from someone who doesn't clear his own table at the food court.

We need Cart Narcs here

Yep. My first real job was working at Woolies as a cashier and trolley boy, and it used to s**t me trying to pull the campaigners out of bike racks or wrangle loose ones in the carpark, or even down the street.

People who can't return a trolley are animals.

And don't give me the whole, "if I returned my trolley, the trolley collector wouldn't have a job". In almost all supermarkets the trolley collector is just someone from the store who's doing it when they have a bit of free time.

Sounds like you were dealing with wild trolleys that hadn't had much human interaction

Come on someone come in here and be honest with a no, it's confidential!

 

[Evolved1]

I'll be honest. It's about 70% yes, 30% no for me. If I don't return them, I leave them in the garden beds or near the shopping center entrances rather than in the car park.

 

[dumb]

One of the games we play while in the car with our toddler is 'count the trolley' while we roll through public housing neighbourhoods.

But myself, always

 

[Billy ray]

About 70% of the time

Here, you need to put a Euro or 50 cents in every cart anywhere, so it's very very rare you see them hanging around solo. You also have to supply your own shopping bags, or buy them in the supermarket. It's been this way for the entire 10 years I've been here.

 

[Forward Press]

I like to place them in ponds to help provide shelter for fish and other wildlife, directly behind other people's cars so they can easily use them to help load their boots, and in vacant car park spaces so shoppers can conveniently have a trolley ready when they park.

 

[Billy ray]

They make good bbq grills

I remember when I was a kid, you needed a dollar coin to unlock them at Coles. Don't really understand why they did away with it.

You still do at most of the shopping centers near me.

I use one of these instead:

 

[raskolnikov]

I used to have a housemate who would walk to the shops and take the trolley home and take it back the next time. He never got stopped.

 

[raskolnikov]

But to answer your question, yes I do.
