Parking in a no parking zone is NOT an option you are "entitled" to.
Try grocery shopping at 6 PM, you'll find a plethora of parking spots.

Do you want to shop when it's crazy?
If you say yes then accept the inconsiderates as they are, make an effort to change them or be aggravated.
Why complain about it?
This isn't some third world country where you get on line for food and water only a couple of hours a day. You are entitled, privileged to a store opened 16 hr a day.
That was Good! Sherry

Maybe there needs to be a few parking tickets given.

never thought about having my husband drop me off and sit outside while I grocery shop. Might stop that extra crap that ends up in my basket when I check out and can't figure out where it came from. He always says must've jumped off the shelf into the cart. I guess if I have him drop me off I won't have that problem again. Thanks for the tip and great information.

My Sweetie goes with me so he can put all of his hungry, unusual and unneeded choices into the cart. Along with cookies and donuts.


Somebody has to do it. (YES. I eat them, bless his little heart)

Isn't the Plethora related to the Blue Morpho?

There should be a loading zone parking sign in front of the WD'S liquor store. That would solve my parking problem.

From a famous movie.

"The white zone is for loading and unloading passengers there is never any stopping in the red zone."

"No, The red zone is for loading and unloading passengers there is never any stopping in the white zone."
