brooklyn1,

I remember seeing that! I forget where.

I have a great memory, it's just short!

Kid's would compete for the chance to push your grocery cart to your car and
unload it, for the right to return the cart for the 25¢ return.

A mob scam, I'm almost certain. Or the start of one?

Best,

Andy
