You are right. It's the drivers that ruined it. As for the leasing that is a super trucker story. They own that property and the manager has final say.
WARNING! This will probably make you angry. Parking Boot Extortion

The Walmart by my house leases there store, manager said so. That manager is my brother.4mer trucker and not4hire Thank this.

3k to remove a boot ........? I blame the property owner who’s probably getting a kickback and the crap towing company.
And that driver probably wasn’t the sharpest knife in the draw.alds Thanks this. -
Then your brother is mistaken. Walmart owns all their properties. They even have a real estate division to re-purpose their old stores. They bring in the small store, then as demand grows they open a super and then sell off their old property. Google is your friend.
alds Thanks this. -
How does that work in a strip mall where Walmart is an anchor attached to the rest of the buildings?not4hire Thanks this.

Your brother doesn't know what he is talking about.

usually they own that strip mall. Also it is very very rare you see a walmart in a big strip mall. They're usually in a small 2-3 store front. Those other 2 companies lease from them.

The two near where I live are leased through a property owner. One's in an indoor mall at the end, and the other is in a strip mall with a grocery store at the other end. It's not uncommon.not4hire Thanks this.

I know Wal-Mart doesn't need our business but it would be nice if they had maybe 10 monitored, designated truck spots with trash cans and a time limit, say 2 hours? This way one wouldn't have to worry about being booted when they run in for groceries, a prescription, other supplies. Their parking lots usually seem pretty huge, put us around back if they have to. I try to spend as little as possible when I'm out but sometimes something comes up, especially when I got sick one time and needed a prescription filled.
