In Germany most supermarkets have coin-operated locks on their carts.
Aldi in the US is one of the few grocery stores to do this, Aldi of course originating from Germany. The effectiveness of this approach does seem rather good. I know some airports before would offer a minor monetary compensation when returning luggage carts for the same reason.

A yes! Abrecht Diskont! One of the few international successes we had! And then there's Lidl, of course!
That's how it's done in civilized countries. In Poland i never saw carts thrown in weird places. Even when some people are not locking cars with chains, people would always bring cars back, it's unthinkable to leave it somewhere else. I'm not surprised at all that savages from richest third world country, USA, don't understand that.
This is the norm in Italy too. There are markets with loose carts and baskets but common sense makes people handle them as if they were locked. Now and again there are asswipes who steal them to play around but, if caught by store employees, they get an earful.
I keep forgetting that that’s a coat cause after a while, my mind blended it into being part of the main body of the outfit, thus me thinking it has long sleeves.
