None of the others in town have these, thought it was unusual enough to share
My grocery store just got these and I didn't know about it. Mine went off as I was going out the door and I was like "wtf is happening here" until the self checkout girl saw and came over to release it.
How do they work
You ever seen those invisible dog fences? Once it crosses an electrical barrier it triggers an alarm of sorts and in this case I assume it engages some sort of brake mechanism.
Just have the greeters chase down any missing carts, they're already on security detail anyway.
Locking or not, at least the American buggies don’t have rotating back wheels. I don’t know what Australia & England were thinking, but these bad ideas got imported where I live nom & they are needlessly difficult to maneuver.
haha yes no more criminal activity
We did it boys! We solved theft!
