    Default Target shoppers vs. Walmart shoppers

    I'm taking a survey. Which store do you prefer to shop at? I, of course, prefer Target and it's not because I work there. It's much cleaner and laid out better. I also think their quality of items is better. What do you think?

    Target is nice, but, really, it's a woman's store. There's really not much for men to look at. Not much hardware or automotive, or much else men would like to kill time checking out while their wives check out all the girly stuff. A sale on towels or lamps doesn't do much for me. At least their electronics section isn't too bad, but the toy area could be a lot bigger.

    WallMart -- in our area the Target is inconvienant to where we live and is a pain to get in and out of.

    I love target...I love their swimsuits, purses, jewlery...and their kids clothes are awesome!
    But walmart wins. The walmart in my town is actually a test store. They tested out a new layout and some other ideas with flooring etc.....so it's actually pretty nice and very clean. When I moved away from home for a brief period of time, I would actually drive 45 mins home just to shop at that walmart...because the other ones are too dingy.

    Target is nice....but I can get groceries and other random obscure things at walmart in one trip, for less money.

    I work at a Super Target and they sell groceries. Hey Jord 84 have you noticed that there are so many more guys than women on this site? Do you have any kids? I'm just curious. I have 3- 2 girls and a boy.

    yeah lol, us women here are definitely outnumbered!

    I have 2 children....my daughter(2) and my son(6).....and if you count my 83 year old grandmother that I care for full time, then I have 3 kids!

    I have to laugh, I'm potty training my daughter....so I've got one child getting out of diapers, and another child (grandma) getting into diapers.

    Target to me is too overpriced. You can get the same items at walmart for like 30% cheaper.. Target is nicer BUTTTTT with $ being liek it is I would say Wal-Mart wins

    Well I guess Walmart wins the survey Oh well I guess I am prejudice and lean towards Target because I work there. Wow Jord 84 you are a busy woman with 2 little kids. My kids are grown and moved out. When do you have time to bowl?

    Yeah that must be hard on you having to take care of your grandmother. She's lucky to have you. I've seen a few of those nursing homes and they can be really depressing. My mom was in a sort of one but she had her own apt. there was another section with assisted living people who were really bad off. She died in 2002.

    We bowl once a week too.
