*puts on a wig* Yep, wanna see the map I made of places that have them? -- nm - groinee Dec 15, 15:09
Target and Walmart do. -- nm - Kim Pine Dec 15, 15:06
all over the place here in Indy -- nm - Remlik Dec 15, 15:06
They have those at the Toys/Babies 'R' Us store, nowhere else. Nor should they be. - Eight Vermin a-Vermining Dec 15, 15:06 5
- word. I have asthma. can i get a spot? -- nm - Guy Dec 15, 15:08 4
  - If you can't walk 50 feet, unassisted, certainly you can. -- nm - Trisha Dec 15, 15:09 3
    - Of course, you will not be allowed to go any further than 50 feet inside of the store, though. -- nm - Spawn Dec 15, 15:15 2
      - Then he has to use a wheelchair or one of those little electric ride on carts. - Trisha Dec 15, 15:20 1

- um, that's not me. -- nm - loosilu Dec 15, 15:05 1
  - Oh, right. *seethes* -- nm - kare's registry friend Dec 15, 15:08
yes. supermarkets, drug stores and department stores -- nm - Spawn Dec 15, 14:59
Never heard of that before. Sounds like a marketing stunt. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 14:58 2
- I dunno who started it. There's no legal basis so they can't ticket you. I park elsewhere. -- nm - loosilu Dec 15, 14:59 1
  - Seems like it must have originated in the east or mid-west and is beginning to spread. -- nm - MistletoeMeg Dec 15, 15:03
I see them all the time. In a way, I sort of resent them because pregnancy isn't an "illness", it's a condition. But, otoh I can totally see where it - Trisha Dec 15, 14:56 2
- wouldn't it be funny (in a candid camera kind of way) to put in special spots for something totally odd - like "left handed parking only" - or some - JenBro Dec 15, 15:08
- Exactly. I'm just surprised we don't have them here - or at least not where I shop. -- nm - MistletoeMeg Dec 15, 14:58
yes, but not many -- nm - peglegpete Dec 15, 14:55
thanks, affirmative action! -- nm - pixmas, hot lawyer Dec 15, 14:55
I also see them now sometimes for "green" cars. -- nm - pmb Dec 15, 14:55 1
- that's annoying. I'd park there anyway. -- nm - loosilu Dec 15, 15:00
I've noticed them at the Boise Best Buy. Not sure if I've seen them elsewhere. -- nm - crash davis Dec 15, 14:54
Never seen them before. -- nm - Mop (215 lbs) Dec 15, 14:54
yes, mainly supermarkets. -- nm - loosilu Dec 15, 14:49 2
- yup, only place I've noticed them besides hospitals -- nm - double dose of zeitgeist Dec 15, 14:55
- that's where ours are -- nm - JenBro Dec 15, 14:52
I've seen them here. -- nm - Max Dec 15, 14:49
