We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,

When camping overnight at Walmart we never ask for permission and disregard the no overnight parking signs. Never had a problem. We also camp overnight at many other box stores and shopping centers. No one cares, they are asphalt parking lots that are open to the public.
Come on down to Florida and try that! :B
And BTW: They are 'privately owned' parking lots NOT public parking lots. The owners/lessee's of the property get to set what ever rules they want. :W
We have been parking lot camping all over Florida, Walgreens, closed gas stations and fast food restaurants are all good. Of the hundreds of nights we have been camping only a hand full have been in paid campgrounds.
BTW I didn't write that they were public parking lots.

After these guys come crashin' through your windows and drag you out of your rig, everybody sorta plays it by ear.

Of course, I know Cottonwood isn't Sedona, but it's the closest town with a Walmart.
Perhaps I didn't understand your comment...."You think they would do that in Sedona to."
Maybe you could explain.

Instead of calling ahead (where it is easy to say "no"), how about walking into the Walmart, get an empty cart, walk over to customers service and ask there (or meet the manager with an empty cart). If they say no, then leave the cart, if yes, then buy your groceries or other items in that store?

Supercharged....There is no Walmart in Sedona. However, the Cottonwood Walmart DOES allow overnight RV parking.
