I always return the ALDI cart to the cart rack but half the time I set the cart a few feet away from the chained together carts and don't collect my quarter.

I'm not sure why I do it. Maybe I'm defying the control system?

However, I think that it's more of a faux charity thing and I'm doing it to make myself feel like I am Mr Philanthropic.

On a related note, there was a Seinfeld show where the topic was do you give to charity to truely help folks or does it just make you feel good?

If anyone could find a clip from that episode I would be grateful.
