Here in Japan it's common everywhere I shop that's more than a tiny specialty store. I seem to remember seeing it at least sometimes in the US when I still lived there.

I was about to say that here in Hawai'i it's fairly common, but I realized when I saw your comment that it's likely the Japanese influence here (I tend to see this most commonly at Don Quijote and Times, which is owned by the same Japanese parent company)

I wonder what Times in Hawai’i is; it's a rent-a-car service here, heh. I imagine it's called something different here. I don't remember seeing it, but I haven't been to Hawai’i since 2015ish.

That said, I doubt it's Japan, but rather making it more convenient for consumers to spend more than they intended by making it easier to have a basket handy.

That's funny. Here Times is a local Hawai'i grocery store chain. Pretty good poke.
