Parking lots and what bugs me

My father can walk but he has severe COPD and got a handicap placard so he wouldn't have to walk so far to get into the store. But there are others who need them even though it doesn't always appear that way.

I've got the handicap plate. On days I don't feel I need it, I park in regular spaces in case someone needs it more than I do.

I did it yesterday. Normally I don't, but I can't carry 5 huge heavy bags, so I had to put em in a cart and if I put it back I have to leave the bags alone with my bike and people can steal them. I guess they won't but I'm not gonna risk it. The place to put it away was very nearby. But with a car at a parking place that's just stupid. Then people can't drive there cause it's blocked by a cart.
 
The NASCAR drivers in parking lots always puzzled me coming or going. They're eventually going to have to stop so why waste gas or add wear on brakes. Target lots seem to be the worst. It's like they think they're missing out on something.

Walmart has designated the best parking spots - those nearest entrances - for customers who sit in cars waiting to pick up orders, while those of us who park and walk inside to shop must then park further away. It seems the opposite should be the case. Those who are simply driving up onto a parking lot with no need to go inside would be just as well off parked further away.

A Walmart in Virginia has their pickup spots off to the left side of the building. If they can do it I have no idea why the others can't.
It's much better that way for both types of people parking.
 
I don't shop at Walmart. Worst clientele no matter where one is located.

In general, big box stores are a horrible shopping experience. The parking lot. The vastness of the store that makes you walk all over the place.

If I need a particular product and it would mean going to Home Depot, I'll first investigate ordering it from online.

I once felt that way about Walmart but cost of living has taught me to lower my standards.

My concern about Walmart is the ongoing problem of cards getting skimmed in stores, and online accounts being hacked... will not deal with WM unless they resolve these problems, and from what I've read it's been going on for years because they're not taking it seriously.

we have it the other way around in most supermarkets. Employees park the furthest away from the store.... the customers waiting for their pick up orders, are in a designated spot of their own around the side...

And people wonder why I don't carry "plastic". If I lose money, it will be replaced when I get my pension and SSI checks.
