Your suggestions and answers did not irritate me, at all. They were all good. But, you didn't quote anything so it was difficult to know what questions you were answering.

I have read every post in this thread, but I don't always read every day. I guess my memory doesn't serve me well after reading a few posts and then not reading for a few days or a week. Yes, I could have gone back and read every post again to see who's questions you were answering, but it seems the quote button is there so that is not necessary.

I don't think your stupid, nor did I imply that. I do believe the purpose of the thread is to exchange information. I hope we all continue to do just that. This is one of the most interesting threads I have ever read. I wish more people would post their experiences overnighting at Wal-Mart. Each stay always results in at least one learning experience, at least for me.

Have a great day!

Another Walmart Parking Story

Late this morning I pulled into my local Supercenter parking lot. I noticed that a couple of nice looking-late model fifth wheels had setup camp. That's right.....camp. The patio carpet was laid out with 8 lawn chairs, a grill and awning out. Nice...real nice. I didn't see a genset, but there may have been one (or two). I know this isn't anything new, and shouldn't bug me, but it always amazes me what folks will do to take advantage of courtesy overnight PARKING!! Sorry I didn't have my camera with me. rockin'

Amazed at the number of postings here.

There are 3 positions to be expressed
1) Those that think you should
2) Those that think you shouldn't
3) Those that think that those who think they should will (should) and those that think you shouldn't wont (shouldn't).

Each post either pro or con seems to be a redundant rehash of those already posted. By now everyone should have learned you will not convince the other side to see your point of view.

I'm in favor of keeping the thread open just to see how many post it will hit.

BTW - I never have but would if needed.

You missed one: Those like me who don't care if you do or don't park at WalMart.
