Don’t Aldi give tokens? I never use coins for carts. I always ask for tokens

@BloviatingBuffoon It may depend on the country or location. Ours uses quaters.
@UnholyTranquility you can use it but thankfully here you can just get a token in the information if you don’t have it and they will give it to you for free. I have many tokens on my wallet and car just in case.🤷🏻♀️

@helenS Aldi's private label are all as good as National Brands. try their chocolate bars, coffee, Ice cream, even their meat and chicken are good.

All the supermarkets here have those coin locks on them.. And almost everyone has a plastic token or metal gizmo to use instead of using a coin. I am fortunate enough to have 3 supermarlets in the shopping centre close by, including an Aldi and split my shopping to take advantage of the best deals from each. Only in a few cases are the Name Brands better than the Aldi alternative. And I am certainly not going to pay for a trolley..😷

My son worked at a similar store to Aldi’s with ‘coin carts’
He taught me to use the key from a sardine tin to unlock the cart. (Now I don’t eat sardines so I had to buy a can just to see if it works…and it does. Insert round end.
Thank me later. :)

Don't even know what you mean by this.
You have to pay for a cart? 🤷🏻♂️

@BloviatingBuffoon I definitely didn't know what you meant by carts then...🤣
Picture putting one of those huge rolling metal (or plastic now) cages in your car... 🤣
You can't leave the store with a "hand cart" here. They have a sensor that triggers an alarm at the door.
They charge for plastic bags though. Some places the paper bags are still free.

@DeWayfarer yeah it’s the big ones , caddie (French) , chariot , or trolley. Sometimes ppl get to leave them in the parking lots instead of putting it properly to their station.
Yeah plastic bags are also paid here now. I often use my own shopping bags.

if given a cart always give it to another customer. if no one is available just leave it against the post so someone else doesn't have to pay

There is another chain emerging here in the USA from Germany just like Aldi. It is called Lidl. You do not need a quarter for the cart at Lidl.

If I get a free cart I’ll leave the quarter in for the next person. Here if you try to hand someone your cart they’ll hand you a quarter.
I always give my cart to the next person walking up. It's just what I've always done. I got that from my mom. It's what she did

Keep the quarter. I've only gotten a free cart at Aldi's once. If someone offers me one, I give them my quarter.

If I don't hand it off to someone, I leave it there to pass on the blessing bestowed upon me.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
Give to the next person or leave it unlocked.
I don't need a quarter that badly.
