Talk:Shopping cart theory

In need of context
As someone living in Europe, I have trouble understanding the custom of leaving your shopping cart after you are done with your purchases.

In Europe, we typically need to put a coin to have the cart be unlocked, and we then put the cart back to get our coin back. I suspect this article is about a custom in the USA. Is the coin system not used in the USA? Could someone add some context into this article? Veverve (talk) 09:50, 29 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Not every retailer uses it, and I believe it is more common than not to not have this coin system. However, the shopping cart deposit system involving coins is found in the U.S. I'll see if there is a way to include this information in the Background section of this article without making it too tangential.
