The wife and I were coming back from a fun weekend of camping this weekend with one of our local GS clubs. We realized we were going to be exiting one exit prior to the one where the new CW was relocated outside of Calera, AL. We had not seen the store since they moved it from Anniston, AL this year. We shop a lot in Anniston so wanted to see if the store was any "bigger or better" after the move, plus we just needed to stop and get out and stretch our legs before making the final run to the farm and figured we could look around for some items to decorate and dress up the new Jayco. First there were billboards on I65 telling us to exit and turn left and then left and we actually saw Camping world from the Interstate so we exit and make 2 lefts. Then we missed the actual turn onto the access road as there is no sign showing a third left onto an access road to get to CW. We had to finally turn around pulling our camper and go back to find the access road. Got to camping world and it was closed and locked up tight. Granted this was a Sunday morning a little after 9:00 am but we both of us remember shopping the store on Sundays when it was in Anniston. The real kicker was that there was no posted hours on the door or front of the store so we have no idea if we are traveling back in that area if we need to bother pulling off the interstate or not!!! Guess I'll just keep buying what I have to have online and we won't be browsing the store location to look for items that we don't "need" but could be nice in the camper! Not knowing what their hours are as they just don't post any signage showing their hours I won't waste my time stopping again! I can't ever remember not seeing the store hours posted on a Walmart store door!

Don't know what pattern you are seeing, I cannot remember in years not seeing store hours posted on the front of a store and if I need supplies for the farm on Sunday my local Tractor Supply is open by 9 am on Sunday. Auto parts stores open even earlier so to stop by to see if the store was open was in my opinion very reasonable, I won't waste my time stopping again as I have no idea what their hours are with no posted hours and with their own billboards and signs not giving proper directions to the store!
We are lucky that camping worlds are open on Sunday's. All other rv places around here are closed. Which is frustrating to us because when we have the time to go and look at rvs is normally a Sunday.
