Target is my favorite place to shop because I search for the nooks & crannies where the clearance items are. But ... with the econmy the way it is, & being on a fixed income (disability) I can no longer afford to go shopping just for the heck of it.  :sad1: I am happy for those who can though. Also I always felt I couldn't afford Macy's, but went with my daughter once when they were having a sale - the prices were cheaper than a lot of the discount stores, plus at times they have discount coupons in the paper. Bought my infant grand daughter a beautiful & practicle snow suit there for $7.00, you can't beat that price.

I usually end up shopping at Walmart.  They pretty much sell the same products, but Walmart is (for the most part) cheaper.  My fiance and I just moved into our first apartment at the very end of November, so we've been shopping at Walmart quite a few times  :P  We bought a wonderful 21-piece knife set for just over $30 and it's incredibly sharp!  Sliced through my grapefruit this morning like it was warm butter 0_0  But when it comes to groceries, we don't really shop at Walmart unless it's dry goods or beverages.  I'm not really fond of their deli or their produce...

I used to prefer Target, but recently their merchandise just seems overpriced, and not necessarily higher quality.

I love both target and walmart. Walmart has everyday low prices and target has some very nice prices on certain items. But I shop at target more.

For me, it's a matter of which is closer honestly. They typically have similar prices on things so it doesn't matter too much.

I go to Walmart more than anywhere because I work there.  But I also like JC Pennys, Dillards, and other store.  I like to see what everyone has on sale and go from there.

We like to go to the super Target, and visit their bakery and deli they have some really good prices.  I have noticed whe we go they have some kind of fruit and a relly good price that anyone can afford. we even food blue for $2 once.  The only draw back to the is the store is 30 miles from us so we don't get to go often.

i do like target merchandise because its unique
and you won't really see the same things everywhere
else. they have a good, modern feel compared to
walmart...

however, i can't run in target to grab necessities
(like razors, deodorant, shampoo, etc) because of
their prices. when i can get the SAME things, the
SAME brands at walmart for sometimes $1 to $3 less?
no contest!

so, yeah, when it comes to the money aspect,
i choose walmart. if i want some cool bedding,
houewares, or clothes and have the extra money,
then target.
[ we all have a place in history. mine is in the clouds. ]

I haven't been to Target for a while now. I do like Target and Walmart. I also like Fred Meyer now since I work there and I get discounts. I like the way that Fred Meyer would mail some coupons to me to give to my family and friends. Thats means, that they will get the same benefits as me which is helpful during the holidays.

Target because it is a SuperTarget and I can get groceries there.  Walmart is closer, but it is not a super Walmart and has few groceries.
