There are places today in the USA where the roadside stands don’t even have a lockbox, just a bowl of money.

We specifically don’t tell you where because we’d like to keep it that way.

I think that is not an exception, but is pretty common almost anywhere in the US rural enough to have a roadside stand. Although bowls are not immune to wind, so generally the exact implementation takes that into account. Often a slotted box with no lock, etc.
