Its unbelievable to me, that they would be so rude and demand i move my car or else would not be allowed to shop in their store!!! I was ready to spend a good 500-600 that day, but FORGET IT!! I left and went next door to a couple other shops on the street... hence LEAVIng my car there, but ready to spend my money elsewhere! Haha, i'm sure they enjoyed that :) Anyway... It wasn't towed or anything and I wouldn't hesitate about parking there for nearby shops, just dont do it if you dare shop in the Cotton island itself. Rude!

I park there to get cookies at JD's (even if you have to wait in line I've never been gone more than 5 min) and to shop at Cotton Island. I've been asked to move before and it's usually a prissy girl who works at Cotton Island. So what. They are just like every other person with a chip on their shoulder. My general rule of thumb is to pull forward so someone can park behind me. If there is a car already there I park behind them (granted they can get out). It's just a matter of manners. If you get blocked in it's probably someone getting a cookie. If you get mad it's your fault because you parked in a "no parking" zone. Hope this helps!!

I've parked there many times to get donuts, but always before the store opened. They’re being very passive aggressive if it’s private parking and they won’t put up a sign.

So glad to know I'm not the only one.

But that was when cars were not as wide as they are today. B's Chippery still has the large bay window in the alley for the service bay. I actually had a couple who recently moved to UP tell me they thought I was pulling their leg when I told them the Wachovia was once a gas station too. Ha.

I took that to mean it was "reserved." I said, "If I have to move it, I'm not shopping." She responded, "Okay. Fine." So I guess they don't need customers. This space bothers me, too.
