...for a good parking space?

I was just at walmart and saw a guy waiting as this woman was unloading her full cart of groceries, just to get her parking space because it was like the 5th or 6th space in... Unless there is NO parking I do not ever stalk anyone through a parking lot and wait on them. It makes me nervous when someone does that to me!! When my son is with me I will scan the lot for a good spot, but my favorite spot is the one right next to the cart return so I dont have to carry DS very far!   I'm not one to drive up and down the rows for 5 minutes.. I just park and walk. 

How about you?

  • I park far. Because nobody else does! I don't want them bumping my car and scratching it. I also have the dogs with me often and I don't want people taunting them. And besides...walking is good.

    Yeah, I just park and walk. If I happen to come at the right moment and get a good spot then that's a bonus.

    I really hate wehn people wait on me.
    I have two kids to get into car seats and a stroller to put up...I'm going to be awhile.
    Don't get testy with me!

  • i agree, but, i do stalk someone if its like an event and there is no other way to get a spot!

    Quoting jillbailey26:

    I'll sit and wait for a close spot, but I won't follow people around the parking lot.  I'm usually not in a big rush, so I don't mind waiting for someone to unload their cart.

  • I have two legs that work. I don't even wait on people to back out. I just park wherever there is a space. Near or far I don't care LOL.

  • I figure it's the universe telling me my butt could stand the hike across the parking lot if I can't find a spot up close, lol...I heed the universe.
