Doesn’t work in America because the largest coin is a quarter (i.e. 25 cents), likely not enough to deter theft (or even laziness).
So instead, many supermarkets installed a system that locks up the carts’ wheels if they’re taken off the property, which makes them extremely difficult to push. Unfortunately, that also doesn’t help with laziness, so we still need memes like this.
We have that too on a chain called "Mercadona", lol
