Huh, I thought those were largely a commonwealth thing - like the cart returns where you have to give them a coin before they'll unlock themselves. I've never seen one in the US, though there are a few one-way gates at stores near me (they don't appear to do anything though, just prevent you from going out the wrong door - I think they're just there as traffic management, they're not active)
