Most shopping carts here require £1 coins to use. You get the coin back when you return it. Some stores have recently removed these locks but I guess Brits were trained for so long that I still don't ever see carts in the parking lots. Everyone returns them to a bay. Either that or Brits are so polite (paranoid) that they know they'll be tutted at if they don't return them, so they do it to avoid embarrassment.
All the large supermarkets in France require a coin or a token, so they tend to be replaced. Cheap, easy system. Like French post boxes, which are big enough to accept small parcels. Neat.
Oh, shit, this is the moaning thread.....

Lots of people suffer from depression or anxiety. Maybe we ought to have a sticky support thread for them.
