If you've ever done your grocery shopping at an Aldi store, you know their little quirk. In order to unlock an Aldi shopping cart, Customers need to insert a quarter. You can't grab a cart with a credit card or other denominations, so a quarter is an absolute necessity. When you return the shopping cart, you get your 25 cents back. Aldi designed this process to ensure that carts are kept neat and orderly, and to avoid hiring extra staff to put away carts.

The Aldi quarter keeper is not only a cute accessory, but a must have for Aldi shoppers. The Aldi quarter holder is exactly what is sounds like. It's a small coin holder that you can attach to your key ring for easy access next time you're at the grocery store. In June of 2002, Aldi introduced new coin keepers in their Aldi Finds section. Some of the new designs include a rainbow, apple, and waffle. You can purchase your Aldi shopping cart quarter keeper in the store, on Amazon, and even on Etsy.
