Trolley point

A trolley point located near NTUC next to Buangkok MRT station. A $1 coin is needed to "borrow" the trolley by inserting the coin to the slot and releasing the chain. After grocery shopping the chain can be inserted back to release the coin. Sadly $1 is not a big enough deterrent for some lazy bums to return the trolley. The supermarket lost a significant amount yearly for unreturned trolleys.

I guess it'll cost them more, 'cos they'll need to upgrade the coin slot, as it can only accept one $1 coin now.
