Living in Wal-Mart

Spring has returned, and you know what that means — time to start living in Wal-Mart again!

In March 2006, the Des Moines Register reported that Skyler Bartels had spent part of his spring break living in a 24-hour Super Wal-Mart in Windsor Heights, Iowa. Of course, Wal-Mart offered all the products he needed to do it.

Bartels entered the store wearing jeans and a t-shirt and was equipped with only a phone, medication, ID, and a credit card. He bought anything else he needed during his 41-hour stay at Chateau WM. From Subway food to pre-packaged snacks to underwear to toothpaste, Bartels purchased everything he needed. What was missing, though? Bartels complained that he could not find a bed to use.

Bartels finally bailed early after 41 hours because he saw greeters pointing in his direction shortly before a managerial meeting was announced.

Now that we have spring break returning this year, will Wal-Marts across the nation experience law-abiding shut-ins?
