[RP TownTalk] just looking for a place to park

[Todd Whitehead]

I've noticed this too, but never thought about the fact that it might be commuters.  I just started going to the Target at Beltway Plaza Mall.

This issue is 
outside of Town boundaries, but I'm betting that many of you have had this 
problem, too.
 
I went over to 
Target at PG Plaza, this evening, at 7:30. The parking lot of was full. Totally 
full, with cars in each row stalking people walking back to their cars so they 
can grab their spaces. Target uses carts that lock up when you get out of range, 
so it was not an option to park elsewhere and walk over. I had to buy some heavy 
items. I circled the lot twice and gave up. 
 
Ok, really. I don't 
know how many spaces there are in front of the Target, let's say that there are 
at least 300. I have trouble believing that there are 300 people / families / 
couples / whatever shopping at Target on a Monday at 7:30 in the evening. Sure, 
maybe some of them were elsewhere at PG Plaza, but wouldn't they have parked 
closer? I think it's turned into a free commuter parking lot and I'M CRANKY 
ABOUT IT!!!!
 
Has anybody else 
noticed this? Any suggestions of where I might complain, other than this 
list?
 
With apologies 
to COC, 
Nancy 
A.
