Parking in supermarkets/sheds

[Bodgeitandleggit]

When parking in supermarkets or the sheds I always park away from all the punters who try to get as near to the door as possible and even hogging the disabled places...

Anyhow when I park well away there is some plonker who parks right next to you ...... ...

I mean there are plenty of places but they still park right next to you....and yesterday some idiot not only parked next to me but left me about 1ft to open the door so I had to access through the passanger door.....the fooking idiot....

when I got home the rear panel has got a dent in it, although I can say for certain it was this idiot I really do think it was him/her ......

why do they insist on parking next to when there are lots of parking bays

Park over the white line so you take up two spaces.It might **** the others off but its a dog eat dog world and nobody seem's to give a stuff about other peoples property.

i always find when ive parked in a nice easy spot to get out of, i come back to find some kn*b in an oversized 4x4 has parked right up next to me so i cant see a thing to reverse out....gggrrrr

they have disabled parking bays...parent and child bays.....maybe they should have inconsiderate b*****ds in oversized cars bays too.

You should have hogged the limited spaces at the door and everything would have been hunky dory.
Saying that I never visit those places of consumer worship.

The world is full of idiotic morons who think nothing of other peoples property.

Not really a practical solution but if you have a 'nice' car, you could buy a wreck for shopping purposes. Something that matches the cars of those idiots above, something with plenty of dents down the side... it's amazing how many people with a nice car, avoid parking next to a car full of dents. Also, with a wreck, you don't give a monkeys where you park it or what happens to it.

This is one of my pet hates... people who use a trolley but can't be bothered to take it to a trolley bay when finished shopping, lazy swines! Cause of many a car dent.

Someone needs to develop ideas such as this further, there must be money in it surely?

Food for thought...or even better every supermarket should be made to fit trolleys with rubber protectors to prevent this damage............whats dragons den address again

Why?
They have a disclaimer on arrival, damage is not their responsibility.
Trolleys are expensive enough. Want your groceries to increase in price?


But bad parking Coonts need shooting and then hung drawn and quartered.

Kit your car out like a tug boat with all old tires hanging off your roof bars. Works for me.

I have an old smoker for shopping and off roading to protect my nice car, even though my nice car is getting on a bit it still looks like new.... I still look for space for the old Jeep and avoid parking next to folk if I can....NO ONE parks next to Osama the J'heep

Our local Asda has about 50 Disabled parking spaces and about 20 spaces for people with kids. It also has a "Drop off and Pickup " parking space for about 3 or 4 cars.
Never ceases to amaze me the amount of people who use the drop off and pickup spaces to park up and then go do their shopping. During the day the disabled and parent with kids spaces are full. In the evening their usually empty, but if you park in those spaces and don't have a disabled badge, or kids, you'll find a ticket on your car. Perhaps time for Superstores and the Sheds to have a rethink about these sort of spaces, and allow parking for anyone after 7 o clock in the evening.

Very often the tickets are unenforcable. Sadly some people fall for it and pay up.

I hate the places. Hate the mindlessness of them. The blank "Stepford Wives" look on the peoples faces, and the fact that they're all the same apart from the colour scheme on the "Buy! Buy! Buy!" posters. Necessary evil though.

Parked at one the local supermarkets not so long back. Went right over the back, and away from the entrance to that row. Nobody parked there at all. Trudged the gruelling 50 yards to the shop front (well it must be gruelling 'cos nobody seems to want to walk it). Came back and Lo and behold! One plonker parked right in front, and another neatly parked too close to my drivers door.
Stacks of other spaces either side.
Why park next to me?

Last car, an ancient Passat we had for years had nicks all over the paintwork from trolleys.
