Can't go to the gym? No way to workout at home? Well, here is an idea: bring your shopping trolley back to the collection station that the supermarket has kindly provided. As we can see in this picture, this may add 100 steps, which may not seem like a lot, but hey! every little counts. Another plus is that you get to spend more time in fresh air, get some sun so your body can develop Vitamin D etc.
Besides, the poor sod that these 2 champions have running around chasing empty trolleys might appreciated it. Sure, someone gets paid bla bla... But, being a nice person has its perks as the kindness will usually be returned.
Want to see if you are an a**hole? Take the trolley test:
The anonymously penned Shopping Cart Theory, the precise origins of which are shrouded in mystery, posits that what you do with your shopping cart in the grocery store parking lot speaks greatly to your personal character. Do you leave it where you parked or do you return it to the cart corral, saving a hapless grocery store employee the time it takes to collect it and protecting others’ cars from damage? There is no dire emergency preventing you from returning the cart, and the only impetus to return it is your willingness to adhere to the social contract; no one is forcing you, even if only to get your quarter back.

And while you are at it... See that yellow number-thingy? Yeah, the one that the shop has 30 of in order to let 30 people into their premise? The one that you COULD bring back so that another person can get on with their shopping....? Yes, best you return that too, otherwise you are 2-timing... you get the gist.
These were just 2 of about a dozen trolleys scattered around. Tells you something.
