As why over here, they figured that if they made it so that you have to put a coin into a slot to release the shopping cart from it's stall, chances are that you'll return the cart to get your coin back. For us it's either a 1 or 2€ coin...I'll remembah fo take pikcha nex' time.
On the other hand, there are usually signs at the shopping centers disclaiming any responsibilities for vehicular damages while spending money at their mega-complex.
Rowena- they tried that at the old Holiday Mart, but they discontinued it for some reason. I remember that often the coin slots didn't work.
Ann- many shoppers push a cart around in the store, itself, because they'r lugging their purses with them and want to have their hands free, but they're not actually buying a lot. They could just as well put the cart back at cart station near the entrance if they really wanted to.

Rowena, They just started that at a grocery store here too. It's $.25 for a cart. Kind of brilliant! :)
