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.
Now you're talkin'! That's the way to do it. Long ago I adopted a policy of; don't ask, don't tell.
