We have spent one night in a Walmart parking lot when traveling from Western MA to AZ just after Christmas. No RV parks are open between our home and TN making it necessary to either spend one night in a Walmart parking lot or in a hotel for the night. The Walmart we would stay at is located in Maryland. For the most part it was a good stay. There are several other campers there, parked at the end of the lot away from where most shoppers park. There are a few drawbacks though; it is often too cold to spend a comfortable night; I like to call them "Walmart Zoom-Zoom cars" that speed around the parking lot with their high pitched exhausts all hours of the night; and there is the street sweeper cleaning the parking lot making sure to get as close to us as possible - at 2 and 3 AM. The last few years we have opted for a hotel room and that is by far more restful. We have not stopped at any other Walmart parking lots and one shouldn't assume other stores would have similar overnight issues.
