Yea the cart thing is why I avoid them, I don't carry cash so... Also they didn't have hand baskets in the store which kinda sucks. Last time I grabbed an empty cardboard box and just threw my shit in there since I had no other choice.

Their fruit was good though so maybe ill just buy what i can carry and get most of my shit somewhere else.

This is the way.

Do you have to pay for it or deposit it in the lock? In the UK it's common in all supermarkets that they need a refundable pound coin to unlock, so many people have a 'trolley token' keyring with a detachable part to use just for that

You get it back, but I personally hate cash and coins even moreso and im not about to start carrying coins in the off chance I go to this one supermarket. This isn't a thing in the US for the most part.

If I ever became a huge aldi fan Id rather get one of those grandma-ass folding shopping carts to keep in my trunk, but I think Ill just stick to what I can carry for now
