MichaelG, you have come up with the oddest topics of conversation. Sucked me right in!
I try to park close to a cart corral, but not close enough where an errant cart could clip my car. If I can’t park close enough to one, I will return mine unless I’m having a bad day (physically). If that’s the case, I’ll push the cart in front of my car, making sure the wheels are turned so it doesn’t get blown around and end up hitting another car.
