    Sorry, I’ve become confused about what you mean by “here” or “there”, and where you are based.

    You mean coins are required in America? Because not in Sweden. They used to be, like 20-15 years ago. But they removed that. Not sure if there was a law that came into effect or something but… not anymore with the coins. Carts are free to take into the store without coins. Still, everyone returns them.

      I still do it without coins because that’s what I’ve done in my entire life. Like, not returning the cart never even entered my mind as a possibility (it’s still not one).

      I’ve seen some un returned carts sporadically, but I’ve always assumed that there was some emergency.

      On the Internet however? I’ve seen people argue that not returning carts is good for the economy because there’s people whose job is to return those, and if we did return the carts they would lose their job. Which is… Stupid to say the least.

        Right, let’s all become murderers so we can create homicide detective jobs… Makes perfect sense. 🙃🙄 Very silly argument indeed.

        Sometimes I just feel like people like to argue for the sake of arguing. Or that they don’t fully understand what they are saying.
