[RP TownTalk] just looking for a place to park

[Lisa Grob]

I have found that parking at the Beltway Plaza Target is just as difficult
and there isn't any reason for commuters to park there. I usually park on
the side at the PG Plaza Target and leave my cart on the sidewalk and go
back and forth to my trunk. I think Target should take the locks off the
carts.

I've never had a problem finding a place to park behind Target.

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.
