Courteous? Absolutely. Common? Not so much.

The Aldi store where I used to live required a quarter to free the shipping cart from the chain linking it to the next cart in the stall lineup. The idea being you'd have return the cart to the stall to re-insert said link from the next cart you pushed yours into in order to get your quarter back. Seemed to work rather well, but I imagine fewer people carry actual cash nowadays so I'm not sure how that's working out for Aldi nowadays.
