Lazy people and trolleys (From Your Local Guardian)

Lazy people and trolleys

11:59am Thursday 13th November 2008 in Your Say

I totally agree with Victor Agarwal on the trolleys at Tesco stores within the Ashford area (Feedback, November 6).

I complained to Tesco head office about trolleys being left all over the car parks.

I have witnessed and been on the receiving end of trolley damage to my car and other cars.

It is a combination of lazy people who cannot walk their own selfish backside to place the trolleys in the collection points, and slow rounding up by staff.

I have challenged shoppers before about returning their trolley, only to be given a mouthful of abuse.

My solution was for Tesco to phase in the refund type trolley as operated by Asda.

The problem still exists. If £1 does not entice shoppers to return their trolley, then make it £2.

Damaging personal property can lead to verbal and physical altercations that can escalate.

Does Tesco want blood on its hands?
