There is no official list, and based upon discussions on a couple of RV
lists, won't ever be one.  If you need to ask why, you're probably part
of the reason no such list exists.

As for unofficial lists, these would be of dubious accuracy anyway,
because conditions can change.  Most Wal-Marts allow it, unless
specifically prohibited by local ordinance.. but a couple of Wal-Marts
have restrictions certain times of the year, and this is not always
equally enforced.

As stated in the original thread: your best bet is to look for signs,
and if it not specifically prohibited by a sign, it's a-okay.

Your best bet is to not head out on the road expecting there to be a
free Wally World stay in your future, but instead to use it in the
spirit it was intended to be used: to give RVers a place to stay rather
than drive fatigued, and to encourage RVers to shop at Wal-Mart.
