No they don't lock the carts at my local walmart but when I lived in the city many grocery stores did that.

Aldi had a cool invention where you had to use a quarter to unlock one. Most of the time the carts were returned.

Yes. I think a lot of places still use that style of cart. It was a loonie (one dollar coin) here in Canada.
Carts are a big expense for retail stores. I used to manage retail drug stores many years ago before I started my business and we used to have to spend thousands per year replacing carts.

Yeah, its stupid how much companies have to pay for theft. If we just had morals, society would be a better place.
