Do you return your cart/trolly?

After leaving the store and loading your car, do you return your shopping cart to the cart corral or to the store if their isn't a corral?

If not, why are you a shit human being?

Yes i do! I learned from my momma. She went so far as to return a cart when we got to the store and heading inside. She would tell everyone in the car to grab a cart. I don’t do that rn but normally I would grab my own cart to bring in and use when I got there. Old habits and such. God I miss that woman.....

There’s a special place in hell reserved for those who leave their carts in the parking lot.

Always, even the trollies that you don't need to put in a pound for to take out to use.

I always return my cart. At my local grocery I usually return it directly inside the store corral.

I’m not sure if that doesn’t make me a shit human but it just bothers me when people leave their carts jammed between cars and then just casually get back into their car and drive away. It’s inconsiderate to the people who will use that parking spot later.

Edit: not to mention the workers who really shouldn’t have to pick the carts out from jammed spots all day long. We get a lot of snow in Canada and I’m going to assume that’s an annoying job to have so it makes sense to just return it.

return for reuse and there will always be shit people

those are the same people who went through the drive through at Burger King and then parked out in the far lot and when they were done, they opened their door and just dumped the trash in the parking lot - we walked over, picked it up and then put it in the barrel at the door - they looked at us like we had 3 heads

I will return it if there is a spot in the parking lot but if there isn't I will atleast try to put it where it won't roll away or hit another car or block a parking spot. I won't return it to the store unless I have one or 2 bags that I can carry so I put the cart back. There are times when an employee is around collecting carts so I'll bring it to them.

Honestly, I think the guys who go get the carts enjoy getting out of the store so might as well let them have something to do.

Yes. I get pissed when people don't. Sometimes I wish I was born more aggressive, and would just get out yelling at people starting a huge scene. I'm too down to earth and prideful though. Normally I get out and put it away myself. I'm so stubborn that if I want to park in a spot and there is a cart some asshole left, I'll get out, put it where it goes, then park. It's like fuck you cart, I'm parking here. I always put my cart away though.

Off topic, but I actually sit in random parking lots quite often to either people watch, or get my thoughts together. I've literally watched someone push their cart towards the location where they go at a ridiculous distance away, and the cart just crash into a parked vehicle. Naturally they acted like nothing happened and just left. I've also watched people just leave a cart, it start moving, then also crash into a parked vehicle. This is why when I do intend on going into a place, I park as far away as possible lol

ofc, how could a virgo venus just leave without having their consciousness nag for it all the way home?

no really, how can I get rid of it, is a pain in the ass all the time.

Did you hop on Zoom and leave?

I put mine back in the corral, but I'm not disabled. If somebody were, I could totally understand why they might not be inclined to return their shopping cart to the designated area after they're done shopping. The fact that they're out there getting their own groceries might be a feat in and of itself.

I like this. Maybe it even caused them to reevaluate their classless behavior (that could be wishful thinking, though).

If it's a mom or dad with feral kids to deal with i won't get too upset if they at least put it in a spot where no one can back their car into it.

Otherwise yeah.

Same

I return to the corral if there is one, I’m not completely lazy, but there is no way I’m walking back into the store to return it. Just stop 😅

But we live in the great land of Publix 🙏🏻

Never

They have people hired to pick up after the customers

i think the same way. don't wanna take away someone's job. for some people that's their actual job, like people who press elevator buttons or give out toiletries in public toilets. i imagine it might feel kinda demeaning for the worker when a customer casually does something they're not paid to do (when you're being paid to do it). it's like bagging your own groceries, one might assume the worker's not doing it fast enough for you or as efficiently as you want. sometimes, you just have to let people do their job.

The way I see it, that's their job, not mine. I don't work part-time for Asda or Lidl. It's like those waiters relying on your tips for survival. If you don't like your current job, try to change it.

i think giving tips to workers like those who put away carts

might be better than trying to do their job for them

feels more respectful imo

LOL, why tip the people who put away carts? It's not a service rendered to you, but part of their job profile. It's a service done on behalf of the store. Why do they charge customers to use a goddamn cart?

i'm assuming that customers (those who put away their own carts) want to 'help out' workers

so if they want to, i'm just saying that might be a better alternative

than doing their job for them

If I go grocery shopping which I rarely do I'll put the shopping cart in the slot or back inside the store. I don't mind walking back inside the store to put it back. I got this habit of doing everything right. I don't even like to litter. I'll even hold on to my trash until I find a garbage can. Some people are just lazy to put their shopping carts where it belongs so they'll leave em right smack dab in the parking lot for it to get hit. That's how I see it. Its not that their a shit human being. Just lazy.
