Why? What do you expect to learn? its an open parking lot and a free country.
my advice is don’t worry about it, no harm no foul, lots of people on here sound as if they would do something just as ridiculous...
oh.....I forgot to add that corvettes don’t ding that easy
oh again....I also would point out that “that guy” is the last one that would hit your car with his door, note... no one has said anything about any damage done to their cars, only what damage they would inflict if someone parked too close to them...

We have a Menards in town with extremely narrow spots. Three trucks parked side by side would only leave that much space between them.

My son parked his pristine VW GTI in a Walmart lot - apart from others - and on a very windy day a loose cart went into the passenger door... Result: $700.00 and listed as a collision by
Liberty Mutual... I canceled the policy as soon as I got the repair check... These insurance companies are real ****** and get you for everything they possibly can.

I still can't understand why ANYONE would go to a Walmart anymore when you can shop at Walmart on-line w/free shipping. No Walmart shoppers to deal with, no check out lines and no parking worries......, and you can shop in-between innings during baseball season. I'm so glad Al Gore invented this whole world wide interweb thing-a-ma-jig....

The truth of the matter is Al Gore never said he invented the internet, but as a congressman he was the first to see the potential of the internet for economic growth and did more than anyone to help create the internet of today. Without Al Gore we probably wouldn't be buying groceries online at Walmart. It is an interesting story and worth investigating.
In the 1980s and 1990s, he promoted legislation that funded an expansion of the ARPANET, allowing greater public access, and helping to develop the Internet.

The High Performance Computing Act of 1991 (HPCA) is an Act of Congress promulgated in the 102nd United States Congress as (Pub.L. 102–194) on December 9, 1991. Often referred to as the Gore Bill,[1] it was created and introduced by then Senator Al Gore, and led to the development of the National Information Infrastructure and the funding of the National Research and Education Network (NREN).[1][2][3]

No, I am a lover of the TRUTH.
Nothing bothers me more than people telling lies over and over until everyone believes it.
The truth is, Gore, a moderate, would have been a hell of a lot better president than W. I am an independant and voted for Reagan and Dole, hated the Clintons, liked McCain and despise the world's greatest con man Trump. Anyone that still supports Putin's puppet is a traitor to this country.

Sorry about that...... Didn't they (DHS, UPS and FedEx) have ads that showed their drivers delivering to all these remote areas in the world ?? I seem to remember something like that.
