I would park in the pick up spot, b/c I really don't care about making life more convenient for the store or someone else. They don't need 30 spots.

I wouldn't park in the pregnancy spot or obviously the disabled spot.

I ignore those signs and park wherever.

That's because you're a nasty, entitled man. Grow the F up.

I don't park in those spots because I never ran into a situation where I had to. However, if I ever needed to because there were no other spots, you bet your ass I would park there. Get out of the car princess.

I haven't experienced this at the grocery store, but I circled the Home Depot parking lot twice, and after finding no parking spaces available, I parked in a pickup spot. I don't mind walking, but if no other spots are available I'm not going to continue circling.

There are no laws against parking in those spots. Its completely different then stopping in a driving lane or parking in a handicapped spot. A tow truck can't tow a legally parked car.

Rude behavior seems to trump any basic manners in this area.

I only notice correlation the other way: the people I know who can't be bothered to step foot in the Target are the people who can't be bothered to find parking at the Starbucks.

I agree

Target has two long rows reserved for pick up. There is never anyone in them. I wouldn’t park there but it seems like poor customer service. They also don’t have self checkout open anymore when o go and the checkers are so slow so I really try to just over order from
amazon now.

They need to put pickup spots in areas that aren’t heavily trafficked, like the back of the store.

I would never park in a reserved spot like that, but seems like a number of a holes on here would. Do they also take veterans spots because it’s “not enforceable”? SMH

Whatever. If I'm spending money there I'm using the spot.

I agree, OP.
It seems like bad karma to take the spots. Just be a good person.
