We've probably all
done it, and those that haven't, have at the very least
thought about it. That's right, spent the night in a Wal-Mart
parking lot. Most Wal-Marts provide
only space for the RV's to park, not electrical hookups or dumping
stations. The company says its invitation to RV's, which has been
in place for decades, is not predatory competition. "It is very
simply an extension of customer service,". Many RV owners agree,
and Wal-Mart camping has drawn an informal but enthusiastic
following. Wal-Mart, Flying J, Cracker Barrel, Petro and any
number of retail parking lots are RV friendly. These merchants
know the value of offering ample parking for large rigs. We become
customers for all the goods and services that sustain these
businesses. Whether your spending the night at Wal-Mart or
Campingworld, once you've had your morning coffee and walked the
dog you head in to buy what you need and shop for the latest
gizmo. Emerging from the store with your latest acquisition and a
new stash of trash bags with little smiley faces on them, your
ready to set out for the destination you failed to reach
yesterday.

The Escapees along with FMCA and the Airstream
Association (WBCCI) have proposed the following "Good Neighbor"
policy with regard to "parking lot wallydocking":
 | Stay one night only. |
| Obtain permission from a qualified individual. |
| Obey posted regulations. |
| No awnings, chairs or barbeque grills. |
| Do not use hydraulic jacks on soft surfaces (including
asphalt). |
| Always leave an area cleaner than you found it. |
| Purchase gas, food, or supplies as a form of thank you, when
feasible. |
| Be safe! |
| Always be aware of your surroundings and leave if you feel
unsafe. |
All That being said, to help explain the website
name, please stay awhile and look around.
