so true. we  very often stay at wm and with an early coffee i  spend at
least the same amount that it would cost me for a camping site...except in
myrtle beach sc , and some other towns   that say no overnight parking,
because of county regulations ,   and  where i had to go to a kmart   a few
blocks away  and spend a few dollars there the next day.. well it is also
convenient to help the old companies.
