IN PA, a local town made using those 25 cent deposit shopping carts a
law. They wanted to keep the carts on the property, not in the street.

Where we used to live in Shreveport, there was a bus stop about 1/4 mile
from the local Walmart. Every morning you would see 10 to 20 Walmart
carts at that bus stop... and every morning Walmart had to send people
to bring them back.
