It's been a long time admittedly, since I studied Materials science; but as I recall, while you're essentially correct that "Stainless Steel", is an alloy that contains Chromium; there are numerous grades of, "stainless Steel" , that don't contain Chromium, & are still technically stainless steel, but much cheaper, & not nearly as good on the whole, "Stainless" bit.

Its what happens when the Pointy Headed Managers, & Lawyers get involved. :roll:

Mild steels surely. Stainless needs at least 10% Cr. You might be thinking of Ni content which is required to make it austenitic (FCC) stainless but not all stainless steels are austenitic.

Round here, the answer is none. The pikeys dump them all in the lanes and lay-bys.
