Russia arrests US dual national over alleged $51 Ukrainian charity donation - SLRPNK

So much freedom
But have you seen the grocery store carts?
Just to clarify… does America not have shopping carts you unlock with coins?

As someone mentioned, I’ve only seen em at Aldi. Some dollar stores keep the carts inside with a pole ro prevent them exiting the store. I’ve mostly lived up and down the east coast (plus some young years in St Vincent and the Grenadines), plus visited a few big cities like Chicago, LA, Vegas. Aside from Aldi, I haven’t seen locked up shopping carts, even at places that have basically a second locked down section of the store for life necessary items like diapers, detergent, etc.

I’m only posting this to answer the question though, as the only thing I care about locked down carts is that I almost never carry quarters (mostly pay card, not cash, and for tolls I have a Peachpass).

In Europe many stores hand out coin-sized plastic tokens that unlock the cart. You still want to get your token back at the end of a shopping trip, though, and take the cart back to the cart queue (which I assume is the real purpose of the coin lock things).
