    Mr fancy pants here with full euro coins.

    I treasure my red plastic €0.50 coin replica more than my life.

      You guys can use €0.50 coins?! Over here in Australia it’s either a $1 or $2 coin. I wish I could chuck a 50¢ piece in the trolley.

        50 eurocent coins are actually about the same size as 1 and 2 euro coins, so that’s why

      Why not just 3D print a few more?

        Why 3d print them when the same supermarket gives them out for free?

            Eh, 'cause otherwise people will have to exchange money for coins, sometimes people don’t have notes to exchange, etc… Seems like retaining the token is incentive enough to return the cart…

              Why not just ask for another one?
