Im a "brought my own bag, and then put stuff in it at the store, unloaded it to scan and put it back into the bag after checkout" :3

Dam I’d need a Bag of Holding

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Don't have to carry the bag around if you use the cart. Less effort

Where I live, I scan the items with my phone and put them straight into my own bag, then at the self-checkout I just scan the QR and pay through the app.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

That's ingenious.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Lawful good and neutral good are the ONLY acceptable anwers

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What's wrong with true neutral?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

The societal acquiescence of the existence of poverty.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Chaotic good is fine if you don't launch it too hard. It's enjoyable to put barely enough force in so that it just slides into the cart in front of it.

It's like bowling.

Just don't launch it from far away, otherwise it could veer into someone's car. Which would be caught on camera, incidentally.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

…or veer into a person, which happened to me (yes I was struck by a runaway cart, no I’m not proud of that). I was not seriously injured.

In my defense, I was distracted- and that cart was running on silent mode or something.

The mystical cart without a janky wheel, the prophecies have foretold of this one.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

But you’d still have to go up to the trolley to get your pound back.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

Chaotic Good. Though more often I'm a "ride-it-into-the-corral" guy.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm "got the coin back that I put in the cart when I got it".

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah, this is a rather US-specific meme...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

In the US. I know exactly one store with the coin system. I love Aldi.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

I was going to say that it is quite common in Germany too but I guess the Germans brought it with them huh?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Spent the past couple weeks in France visiting my wife’s family, and was surprised that most of the stores had the coin locks but were not using them, as in they had all been disconnected so you didn’t need to use a coin to release them. I think the only store we needed coins at was E.Leclerc.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Interesting. Presumably, enough of their customers now show up without the appropriate coins, due to electronic payment methods being available otherwise, that they decided to not require coins.

Here in Germany, where we hold onto cash a bit more dearly due to our Stasi-past, I don't know any shop where I can take a shopping cart without sticking a coin in...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah there's a few in Canada too that still use the coin. They usually will give you a coin to use if you go to customer service and ask. Most places just gave up though and abandoned that system. I wonder if it was costing them more to try to maintain or something. I'd imagine that people who have a cart tend to buy more, whereas if they're forced to use baskets because they don't have a coin, they might not buy as much. I know that's the case for me at least.

Disagree with these, except maybe LG, LE, NE, and CE.

Neutral good: Given directly to the next customer.
Chaotic good: Given to the poor.
Lawful neutral: Returned to a corral.
True neutral: Given to a staff member.
Chaotic neutral: Returned to another store.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

True neutral implies you took it from the homeless and are giving it back to them.

The lowly shopping cart is the only appliance that can absorb my gathered rage as I launch it full speed into its brethren

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

What alignment are you if you just take it home?

For the record: I am chaotic good. I can accurately hit the inside of the corral from up to 150 feet away. 😤

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

True neutral

Returned to the poor

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I used to do it with my car. Late at night, after store is closed, go to local supermarket, find unreturned trolleys, square them up with my car, line myself up, and push them along the car park like I was competing in some urban form of Curling.

What's zip tied to the asshole SUV that is parked in four spaces?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Karma is typically connected to Lawful Neutral.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't see what you're talking about, zip tie or poorly parked SUV

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

OP is saying that they like to zip-tie the cart, not that it's in any of the images; and they're asking what alignment that would fall under.

I rarely use a cart anymore because I do more frequent, shorter, trips and just bring a tote bag. But the other day I went with someone to a store and we used a cart. I returned it to the cart return place and she was like "good. You can learn a lot about someone by what they do with the cart"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Which one is hop into the basket and take it for a joyride?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Chaotic Cool 😎

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Chaotic Good baby, love when the parking lot around the corral is vacant so I can go for distance without risking hitting anyone.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

So Neutral Evil just means lazy bitch-ass trash?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm on the good row, depending on the store and distance back. I have on one occasion delivered a cart back to the store via my car (a good mile or so away) - it was left in our neighborhood, I was doing it for myself and neighbors, not the store, so I don't know where that puts me. It's the opposite of true neutral, since presumably someone poor had used it and discarded it.

I ride the cart to the corral, stepping off at the last minute such that I stop while the cart reaches warp 1 and makes the loudest noise possible.

I’m 40.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Where does "slammed into someone's car" fall?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Some of the returns sound like you took it from there in the first place. Return to the poor? Did you take it from them? Return to a culvert? Did you find it in a ditch and then take it shopping??

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Golden corral

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Chaotic evil is resting the cart on a very slight incline that will cause it to careen into someone a few seconds after it is unattended.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

This is one template I'm down to bring back

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm solidly neutral good, but have occasional deviations into lawful good and chaotic good territory.

What about "didn't use a cart in the first place", or "brought own cart"?
