Sodding quid for the trolley thing does my head in!

Emergency quid kept in the car was missing today. Had to queue up behind three others to get change. Once thoroughly frazzled, the Sainsbo's women had the temerity to try and sell me a trolley token. Why should I pay to use a trolley (at least you get the quid back and spend it - the token is a sunk cost that you will never recover, even if it is only a quid. Anyway I'd probably lose the fucker anyway).

Why can't trolleys be free to use like they used to be?

Our local ASDA has two sizes of trolley, the big ones and then the half sized ones. Half sized ons need a pound coin token and the full sized ones don't.

Presumably this is to force people who are doing a little shop to take a big trolley rather than a small one, as once you have the space you're more likely to buy more things.
