trolleyvisa
/ˈtrɒliˌviːzə/nounVerified NewThe practical folk knowledge of what, and how much, one may legally haul across a border on a shopping trip.
In twin border towns the weekly grocery run is a licensed act: two cartons of cigarettes, one laptop, no meat. Nobody studies the tariff schedule; everybody knows it, and the queue is where the current version is published.
Etym. — trolley + visa: the shopping cart as the travel document that actually gets inspected.
