When people talk about returning the cart after shopping, does that include putting it in a corral, or do you have to take it all the way to the front of the store to be a good person?

you can’t truly be a good person unless you establish was a bad person is first. Thats why I always murder someone on the way to the corral.

If it’s a mediocre corral you can call it a shooting at the ok corral

Any store that deserves compliance has corrals.

Unpopular opinion: If the parking lot is uncrowded then there’s nothing wrong with leaving your cart in an empty spot. Its not like the workers are gonna be given an extra breaktime if they don’t have to collect carts, the store is paying the workers per hours and will always make sure they have tasks to do 100% of the time no matter what happens. I’ve even heard online multiple store workers say they prefer collecting carts over many of the other tasks they have to do.

So if you aren’t giving the workers more work to do, and you aren’t inconveniencing other parkers, then i don’t see any harm in leaving a cart in a random empty parking spot of an uncrowded lot.

EDIT: just for the record, i do always return my carts, but i also think in some situations it’s completely pointless
