    Chaotic evil is resting the cart on a very slight incline that will cause it to careen into someone a few seconds after it is unattended.

    Shopping trolleys are a rich source of materials for the aspiring welding fabricator. Road signs can also be good but they get banged around.

    I’m usually lawful good or neutral good, but I’ve been lawful evil or chaotic neutral when there are no corrals and there is no space between cars in the parking so I would need to go around the entire parking back into the store. I do this in protest of them preferring to have a few more parking slots than putting in a corral.

    The lowly shopping cart is the only appliance that can absorb my gathered rage as I launch it full speed into its brethren

    I rarely use a cart anymore because I do more frequent, shorter, trips and just bring a tote bag. But the other day I went with someone to a store and we used a cart. I returned it to the cart return place and she was like “good. You can learn a lot about someone by what they do with the cart”

        Spent the past couple weeks in France visiting my wife’s family, and was surprised that most of the stores had the coin locks but were not using them, as in they had all been disconnected so you didn’t need to use a coin to release them. I think the only store we needed coins at was E.Leclerc.

          Interesting. Presumably, enough of their customers now show up without the appropriate coins, due to electronic payment methods being available otherwise, that they decided to not require coins.

          Here in Germany, where we hold onto cash a bit more dearly due to our Stasi-past, I don’t know any shop where I can take a shopping cart without sticking a coin in…

            Yeah there’s a few in Canada too that still use the coin. They usually will give you a coin to use if you go to customer service and ask. Most places just gave up though and abandoned that system. I wonder if it was costing them more to try to maintain or something. I’d imagine that people who have a cart tend to buy more, whereas if they’re forced to use baskets because they don’t have a coin, they might not buy as much. I know that’s the case for me at least.

    I’m on the good row, depending on the store and distance back. I have on one occasion delivered a cart back to the store via my car (a good mile or so away) - it was left in our neighborhood, I was doing it for myself and neighbors, not the store, so I don’t know where that puts me. It’s the opposite of true neutral, since presumably someone poor had used it and discarded it.

      I used to do it with my car. Late at night, after store is closed, go to local supermarket, find unreturned trolleys, square them up with my car, line myself up, and push them along the car park like I was competing in some urban form of Curling.

      Yes, normally Neutral Good but will go Chaotic Good if the corral is empty or pretty much empty. I’m lawful good if I only have a free things or there is no corral, but in those cases I try to avoid bringing the cart back to the car.
