BUT, I did find a store that still had (free) shopping carts outside (not as many as I'd of liked though), and was able to do a ring around the Jeep (may have to try an even better one next time!)
I dig it man! And I wondering where people live that they have to pay for the shopping carts? Never heard of that.

Lol, most grocery stores around here have a coin slot/lock on each cart that keep all the carts attached to one another until you put a quarter into it.. The stores that don't use them tend to keep most of their carts inside it seems haha.

Like this:


That'd be a lot of quarters and definitely going out of my way to surround the XJ if I had needed to pay for each cart lol..

That's weird, I live in NM and I've never heard of paying for a cart and the carts here are half inside half outside.

You get the quarter back, it's a way to cu costs they don't have to have employees to go get the buggies because you are more inclined to bring te buggy to the front to get the quarter

Aldis here in Ohio does this too. Its a pain but I'm sure it helps keep carts from getting stolen.
