Leaving in the parking space? Not a chance! Not going to be one of those people!

You get your £1 coin back when you return your trolley.

I have already taken a cart from a parking space in the store with me.

This question was discussed in the Daily Sun on Tuesday, and just some food for thought.

Cheers!
The cart is there so you fill it up and buy as much as your impulse shopping will allow. Not as a CONVENIENCE. ThT being said. I return to a corral or the store

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.
its the effort that counts

When i'm done using one, i put it in the closest corral or i offer it to any customer on their way in, if they're parked near me.
