Walmart allows overnighting when permitted for one reason, and one reason only, it makes money off the occupants. There is no high moral code guiding their policies.
Main reason that they have a parking lot and allow me to park my car there. Capitalism isn't always a bad thing. or immoral..It may even benefit both parties...
I agree. Profit is not a dirty word, although many in this country think so.
I have read that WalMart makes an average of $87.00, in sales, per overnight traveler.
Also, some of the newer WalMarts have very nice bus stops with shade, benches and all to create a stop for transit buses. What do you suppose that a rider waiting 30 or 45 minutes for their next bus is going to do? Shop inside! WalMart has the city bringing in customers by the bus load!! I know this because my wife was a transit driver.
You have to admire their marketing.
