GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. -- A Wal-Mart shopper overstayed her welcome at the 24-hour store in Lilburn. Gwinnett County police escorted the shopper home after she stayed there for three days eating and sleeping inside the store.
Between the traffic, the congestion and the crowds -- spending more than 5 minutes at a Wal-Mart at this point in the game, makes up most Christmas shoppers' nightmares.
"It's my first time here but it's pretty crowded. There's a lot of people in there," said one shopper.
At the 24-hour Wal-Mart in Lilburn, police said a 70-year-old woman spent three days inside the store sleeping, shopping and eating at the on-site Blimpie.
"Three days in any store is a little crazy, but in a Wal-Mart...yeah," said a shopper.
Despite what most people think about such and experience, it is likely that because of all the shoppers, the woman was able to blend in with the carts, crowds and chaos and go unnoticed for 72 hours a week before Christmas. When asked by Wal-Mart employees why she was there for so long she simply said, 'I'm shopping.'
The woman was escorted home by police after she paid for her merchandise.

So whats the big deal?...She was not causing a problem, the store is open 24hrs, there is nothing in writing that says you must leave the store after so many hours....she was spending money, not shoplifting....
NOw where she slept??....who knows, but there are ppl with insomnia who dont sleep for days, and they arent escorted anywhere....0 -
Good point, BR..I always thought Walmart existed for shopping, and the 24 hour ones existed for MORE shopping. 0
