I hold her hand to keep her from wandering off and spending 3k before I find her.

Married, so she’s out in front hollering, “Move your ass, Old Man!” (With a Chinese accent).

I always park far away. I NEVER drive to the driving lane that is immediately parallel to the front of the store. It's a gagglefugk. I start at the end of the parking lot furthest away from the store and park away from other vehicles. My wife does the opposite. Her vehicles always have way more door dings than mine. She and others like her will spend several minutes shopping for a parking spot that is 5 spots closer than one they just passed. Do they do that to save time?

What Paul Barnard said...... Beat me to it. Plus; my wife also does the same thing. Parking far away is good for me, as the more walking I do, the better.

I always park far away from a stores entrance with no other cars within 20 yards. Many times when I return, some fine citizen has parked right next to me and very close, when there’s dozens of other places to park.
I hate door dings.

My wife won't ride to the store with me. I won't go passed the front of the store and I park where no one will bang my doors with their doors. I guess I don't mind going to the store by myself. My pickup thanks me.

Maybe - but my wife requires a handicap spot. She can't walk more than about 75 feet w/o losing her breath..

I, OTOH, do park away from others whenever possible - especially due to the fact that I drive an F-450 dually long bed crew cab..

It’s been 53 years but we’re usually holding hands for at least part of the way and since I’m the bodyguard, my left, her right so my right hand is free. When our older grand daughters were in high school, they got a kick out of it. “Isn’t that sweet.” 😁

I try to park out a bit to avoid door dings.

Now that I’m approaching 179 yrs of age, I feel entitled to drive and park my 36ft land yacht Lincoln where I please. I am old and open the door with both feet. 🤣👏🏻

Yes, it is mind boggling.

They do it to save time and then walk into the store, all of 9-11 steps while carrying a Shamrock Shake drink pushing 1800 calories and complaining about weight gain.

Park in the back 40 and hike in (so to speak) is a great way to easily add steps to the day without scheduling gym time.
