I do the same thing. Also, more often than not I'll try to find a parking space near the "cart corral" so I won't have to walk too far to put it there after I've emptied it.Yup. We've discussed this some already, but it's an ongoing problem. I often find myself putting the supermarket carts others have left in parking spaces in the cart returns. I'm no model citizen, but for my own sake I try to actually do something about little irritations rather than merely complain about them. Putting the carts where they belong might take a while to catch on, but we gotta start somewhere, and we gotta be persistent.
I understand it to a degree--people get tired, or they're just lazy--but I've seen people walk farther to put their empty cart in the wrong place than they would have walked to put it in the right place. The people who really bug me are those who make the effort, then give up at the last moment and leave the cart just outside of it.
