Grocery Store

If you want your groceries sacked in a plastic bag, you must pay an extra 22 cents, because there is a "ban" on plastic bags here! So we take our own reuseable bags.
If you want to use a "trolley" (basket) to put your groceries in while you are shopping, then you first insert a 1 euro coin to get the trolley released from its holder. Then when you're done, you re-attach the trolley and your coin is returned. This is actually quite an effective means of preventing trolleys from being scattered about in the car park (parking lot)!
