She thinks she's been backed into or hit by another car. She glances around and doesn't see any cars and figures it was something weird. So she goes into the store and shops. Well on the way out she is walking up to the car and can see the massive dent in the driver side door. So she comes home and tells me. Well I'm like why didn't you go in and talk to the manager of the store. She says they won't do anything because of the signs on the cart returns that says they aren't responsible for damages. So I call my uncle lawyer and ask him and he says to go back up there right away and talk to the manager. Needless to say Wal-Mart's claim department found them not liable for damages, and i got stuck with the 1000 dollar repair bill.

So, I don't shop there anymore. Oh yeah, Wal-Mart actually has a form for baskets hitting cars. It has spots for pictures and damage descriptions and so forth.

The parking on the highest point is a good idea!
