Aldi is German isn't it ? Here in Europe it is normal to collect your
trolley from outside the store. It's only in the UK that you don't have
to put a coin in to be able to take one from the rack. Probably explains
why UK rivers are full of trolleys !

PS I remember my sister commenting on the caravan park at Eurodisney
having places that were much bigger thna normal, Reason was that were
designed by an American used to Winnebagos rather than the Sheds on
Wheels that are used here. Sa

At the stores I shop we have to put £1 into the trolley which is outside!

The Bigg's stores in my neighborhood require a quarter to unchain a cart.
You get the quarter back when you return the cart to the cart return and
insert the chain with a tab into the coin box on the cart. Your quarter is
returned.

That's one reason I never go there. I live near the Eastgate Biggs in
Cincinnati. That store really sucks, and with Meijer just across the street
I don't bother with Biggs and their pay-to-get-a-cart scheme. Now, if I was
near the Mason Biggs store, I might consider shopping there. When the
Forestfair store was new and I lived in Fairfield, I when there, but not
that store looks really tired.
