...in the mistaken belief that when you put your pound in to release the trolley, the trolley gobbles it up!

Says it all really. ::)

A Durham Police spokesman said: "We can only guess that those responsible have never used a supermarket trolley before, otherwise they would know where the money goes."

Well, I don't use supermarket trolleys much myself but I don't think there is a coin compartment on the trolleys. One would think that after a couple of goes at dismantling the handles they would have figured that one out. ::) ;)

The would-be thieves targeted 83 shopping carts at Lidl's supermarket on Essington Way in Peterlee in the early hours of Tuesday.

I suppose that they probably are more used to hiding things in bags and under their coats when they go "shopping"... ::)
