We normally shop at WalMart once or twice a week regardless of where the MH is parked, so on the very rare occasion that we overnight at WalMart shopping is part of the routine.

If I need something yes, but I would not make it a requirement for having used their parking facilities.

Every time, which is about one night in 3-4 weeks. Like Norm said "it ain't cheap", we usually spend near $100 restocking the RV.

I can't remember the last time we overnighted at Wal-Mart and did not spend some amount of money inside (might have been a pedicure for Janet, but something).
Since we also spend an enormous amount of money at Wal-Mart when are are parked nearby, it's just another day at Wal-Mart for us.

I make a point of it... after all, I'm never so fully stocked that I can't at least use SOMETHING they have -- even if it's a packet of batteries.

Usually it's a lot more than that, though.
