UPDATE: Cart Karma… Carma! Are You In?
If you’ve never tried it, it feels really good. That’s where I did it, in Plainfield…
Next time you’re at Aldi, or anywhere the shopping cart must be unlocked with a refunded quarter, try CART KARMA.
The idea is to leave your quarter in your cart (that’s right, NOT get it back); so that the next person gets to feel a little treat.
I have been doing this for about two years, now. Sometimes, I have to laugh, because I get a frowny “you’re so dumb” face, from a non-smiling person. But most every time, I get a big smile from a harried mom, with two little kids (who needs to land them in a cart, fast)… or a senior who really needed to just hang on to that cart, right away… or just someone who gets it – and says they do it, too.
And it only cost me 25 cents. But I got back sssoooooo much more.
Pay it forward. Cart Karma feels really good. ~ Mo
[PS – Maybe we should change the spelling to “Cart Carma.”]
UPDATE: I see you doing it, with me, at the Aldi near Louis Joliet Mall!!!
