There are time limits in a supermarket car park?

All time record broken this morning, our total weekly grocery shop spend was £99.99 exactly. My all time best at being under £100.

Yes, usually it's free for a limited time, often 90 minutes, and after that it functions like a paying car park. There's a car park at a shopping centre in Charlton where the free parking time is reduced on match days when the local Charlton Athletic are playing at home. I managed to learn this by rather expensive experience. It can be a bit of a trap at big spread out shopping centres which can take a while to get around and, after all, who makes a mental note of what time you entered the car park when you're out for a shop?

Yep.. Most supermarkets have time limits, as do retail parks, especially in town centres. As @deptfordmarmoset says: free, then a ticket if you don't follow the time based rules ie: longer for disabled if you give your car reg number to them.

Once (as is often the case nowadays) the supermarket gives up control of their carpark..as Asda did some years ago I Peterborough, signage goes up etc etc.
I've known it for a long time (the 2 hour limit here) but just lost sight on the day.

I've seen such signage on plenty of supermarkets carparks (time limits etc)
