I work as a service technician at the Wal-Mart auto center. I bring my bike inside everyday, and line it up against the gate that separates the customers from the auto bays.

I usually end up walking it out through the store at the end of the day. Our store has one of those far-from-the-front-door bike racks. The local Meijer stores, however, have one rack by every entrance. I buy groceries there =c)>
