Do you hate the grocery stores that put the automatic lock on the basket when you reach an imaginary line in the parking lot?

The 2 stores closest to my house are so annoying you have to park a little bit far from the store because there's never any spots but your basket full of groceries locks up before you can reach your car.
I am so tired of companies not giving a darn about their customers in only caring about their convenience.

I didn’t realize that they were doing it but it’s a good idea, they need to extend their range a bit though. The older cart-pusher at the Walmart I worked had to go in his truck to various neighborhoods within a mile of the store and collect the shopping carts people had left in their front yards and he was tired of it. Probably at least 50 a week not to mention the ones that people who clean the local parks and streams find in the streams. They found 10 in one park stream last year.
