LOL!!! This drives me insane too! I do always return my shopping cart, either to the drop points in the parking lot or to the front of the store, if there's nowhere else. I've had my car scratched up a few times by errant carts that people have just left behind and they've either been blown or pushed into my car. UGH!

Oh I Know how you feel, that really makes me mad, I went parked my car once and when I came back from shopping there was a shopping trolly right by my car becuase the person couldn't be bothered to return it . . AARGH. I always return my trolley to the thing and even push them in so they are not in the car park, I don't tend to just dump it I do try and put it back properly. People can be very lazy and inconsiderate!!!

It makes me mad too. I always put the shopping cart back, and it's usually not much trouble to do so.

well, not only is up to the patron to return the cart, it is up to the store to also clear the carts from the parking lot. most of the stores that i shop at are very good at clearing out the carts in the lot. they have someone whose job is it just to do that.

That's also true,someone else job you might think but it's just rude to leave it at the end of a parking space.

Hi, so I am not the only one who hates these lazy good for nothing people who leave the shopping carts in the parking spaces.I make a point of announcing loudly how LAZY and disrespectful some people are when I collect their cart.The workers can't comment but I can so I do it.

I do not like seeing people walking down the street with shopping carts because that adds up and what if they start raising my prices at the grocery store. I also think it looks really lazy and my god, I remember when I was 16 years old living in CT I worked at a grocery store and bought my groceries and never had my dad pick me up, I hauled them up the steep hill to my house and came back for the others. I don't know if this makes sense but it doesn't bother me that the local bum has one because man that guy is always away working early in the morning to the late afternoon picking up cans. If there is a shopping cart in the parking spot I do get ticked and will just park and move it then take my spot. We have a Walmart (super Walmart) over the state line that always has tons of shopping carts taking up parking spots and I don't get why they cant have someone cleaning them up just like any other grocery store but I think after 8pm they just stop and its a very busy 24 hour Walmart.

Hi isabella123. I know how irritating and tiring it is to return a shopping cart back to it's place. But here in Denmark we have to put 20coins on it before we could use it. So i have to put back the shopping cart in order for me to get back my money. Such a good strategy of shopping stores so people will really be oblige to return the carts. thumbup

Well that's the funny thing...some place here we also have to pay 0,25$ and still peoples are to lazy.

I've never heard of that for shopping carts only to borrow a stroller at the mall but I would definately do that if we had it but I live in the Suburbs so the traffic is pretty spread out between the other grocers.

It makes me fume when I see shopping carts left all over the place. Lazy so-and-sos just don't want to walk a few paces to return them. Even more infuriating when they leave it in a parking space.

I have always returned my shipping trolley, no matter how far away the car is parked.

Two of our supermarkets now have coin trolleys. A marvellous idea because even the laziest of them won't willingly leave their money behind.

Consequently in these car parks there isn't one single drifting trolley. A very good thing and hopefully the others will all follow suit.

I guess it's just a matter of not being lazy.

That just irks the daylights out of me, too. Most stores have those cart returns all over -- it just doesn't take that long to put the cart away. Just another sign of how lazy and inconsiderate people are these days as far as I'm concerned.


myLot reputation of 99/100. isabella123 (344)   ranked 553 out of 35,350 in people  12 months ago

Yes,lazy and rude!

This drives me crazy too. My son works at Wal-Mart and that is his job to bring carts back to the store. He says that he hears the statement "I'm providing job security for you" all the time. He doesn't mind getting them from the buggy corrals which is what he is supposed to do. But no only is it lazy those things can do some major damage to a car when the wind catches them and sends them sailing into vehicles.
