This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Flawed. Here, you must insert a coin (or if you have it, a token with the shape of the coin) that will only be returned after you put the cart in the correct place.

So you actually lose something if you don't return the cart.

That’s common in England, but a lot of larger shops don’t bother with that system.

It's the opposite here in Sweden, in some larger supermarkets you did need a coin but in no smaller shops

Anyways that's all gone now since no one carries coins anymore
