Here in finland you have to insert a coin in there. It gets released when you chain the shopping cart back to another shopping cart or the roof thingy where they go. Works like a charm. Very few loose carts

We have that in the US as well. Just not every store gets those. Guessing that enough people just consider it a payment for not putting the cart back.

Where in the US? I've never seen anything like this.

I've seen this at the Aldi stores near me here in the Northeast US

Aldi is actually a European store (specifically German if I'm not mistaken), so that makes sense.

Same. I also never have coins.
