Just out of curiosity: Which trolley parking space is more dirty and f* up over there? Lidl's or Aldi's?
Here in Germany I would guess it's Lidl's almost every time, and regular cleaning at almost every Aldi.
Sometimes, when I'm not in a rush I go full chaotic good and use my trolley key to release a load of them. I like to pay back from the times in the past when I didn't have a coin handy.
Here in the US they give you the cart behind the till and you leave yours for the next person, so how does it work with tokens, are you like "no I gotta keep this cart, we bonded"?
