Literally! Anytime I go to Costco i intentionally go to the furthest spots because they're likely to be open and I'm fully capable of and enjoy walking.

You also can’t ride the cart through the parking lot if you park too close. Then you just look silly kicking it up to speed for just a short ride.

(I’m almost 40 and still do this every time I have to go shopping, like a reward for completing the draining task)

Tough with the full cart (choo choo) but esp. rewarding when returning the empty: yee-haw!

I'm the one who parks in the spot right beside you, just to mess with you.

I'm the one who uses a series of car dollies to move your parked car one parking lane over, just to mess with you.

The more the merrier! I have a compact SUV and park in the middle of the space :)

My trick is to park further away but on a straight line to the entrance, not diagonal. I think it's often shorter.
