    I dont think so. It’s just that I’ve been in several EU countries, and Ive never encountered this issue here.

    I think the real reason might be that majority if not all supermarkets require coins to unlock the shopping cart.

      Sorry, I’ve become confused about what you mean by “here” or “there”, and where you are based.

      You mean coins are required in America? Because not in Sweden. They used to be, like 20-15 years ago. But they removed that. Not sure if there was a law that came into effect or something but… not anymore with the coins. Carts are free to take into the store without coins. Still, everyone returns them.
