Brings up the subject of Spandex ...should be illegal on some ,well most anyway. especially in Walmart.
If a person came to my door wearing Spandex and a string bikini in the middle of the night while parking at Walmart ,I would be looking to hire Casey's attorney.

That shooter in the Utah walmart was a retired Florida Police sergeant. Investigation didn't take all that long.

Walmartians

What I love about wal Mart is the same thing I love about camping. People camp in $20 Wal Mart tents, $300,000 motor homes, and everything inbetween. And each of them has an interesting story to tell, or you can just watch 'em and make up your owm stories.

Same thing with Wal Mart. Every brand or flavor of human being (or not so human) can be found in Wal Mart. It is a poeple watchers paradise. I fell in love with WM when my daughter was in college. I bought her a Wallycard and kept the number. When she got broke, I went to the local WM and added money to the card with just the number. She could spend it instantly, and i wasn't too worried that she coud buy anything at WM that i didn't approve of. It sure beat paying western Union $25 to send her $100.
And now you tell me I can stay there for free. I should have bought her an RV and parked it at WM for 4 years. She spent enought money there and would have saved a lot of dorm rent.

We use some of the points we get from our credit card to buy Wall Mart gift cards, then use them for gas and diesel at the Wal Mart/Murphy gas station .... Free gas at a discount ! Then after filling up the motor home we can go into Wal Mart for a little grocery shopping for supper then retire in the parking lot for a good nights sleep.... Can life get any better ?

I have parked at WalMart at times but have found a better place at Cracker Barrel restaurants.
Stop at supper time have dinner, ask manager OK to park, get up in morning have breakfast and your on your way.
Good variety of foods and wife enjoys the atmosphere especially it colder months sits by fireplace.
Did it four times down and back to Florida.

We too love Cracker Barrel, but their RV slots are not long enough for our toad so we must decouple it. We usually eat dinner and or breakfast there and don't drive anywhere else. It isn't a big problem, but it isn't a problem at Wal-Mart.

Sorry!! Wasn't criticizing; my uncle retired as a Homicide Detective AND served in Viet Nam. I was just stating facts to the question asked...Wouldn't want to imagine what civilization would be like without Police Officers, especially when the WalMartians come out!! LOL!!

Guess it means you can park for hours on end as long as it's day.

There is great need for a sarcasm font.
