What do you like better, Walmart or Target?

Walmart or Target - Walmart super stores have everything, so do Target superstores.

I have a choice to go to either walmart or target. I think Walmart is still cheaper, but I feel Target is cleaner and neater. What do you think? If you had a choice, which one would you shop at?

I enjoy both personally; but to me I prefer Walmart; The Target here in town is ok, but not as close to me; I just prefer Walmart for what they have to offer and prices; For example, I was in Target to buy their baby oil gel; I wanted the DVD Rocky Balboa, which I thought was a good price; but when I went into Walmart, they had it for cheaper; Target wanted 17.99; but Walmart wanted 15.96, so guess where I went? you got it.

I have a super Walmart and a super Target almost the same distance apart. I like some things at each of the stores. I don't trust the meat at Walmart. It looks too manufactured and processed. However their produce is better than Target.

Yes walmart is cheaper, but sometimes they are not as well kept.

I absolutely refuse to shop at Walmart. People don't often get why I won't, but it's the way Walmart treats their employees, and bullies their distributars to give them lower prices than everyone else. I've felt this way ever since I read the book Nickle and Dimed. Definitely a book worth reading.

Mmmm, never read the book. I do not like the way Walmart is buying up precious farmland and putting their big box stores there!

Target. Because the merchandise is of higher quality and the shoppers are not as gross. However nothing beats walmart for a 3am shopping blitz on pay day.

Wal-Mart is easier and it's where we always go, but Target is a cooler store. It has a lot more unique stuff and I like how Target is laid out and the type of store it is, but I still go to Wal-Mart a lot more because it is easier for us.

I agree that Target is laid out better. It does have better quality merchandise too.

I prefer Wal-Mart. It has more of what I buy and I like the prices better. Target I find the prices are higher and the store layout is not the greatest. Also I am a larger sized woman and finding clothes at Target is not easy. They don't seem to have the selection in anything about a size 12 that Wal-Mart does.

There are 2 WalMarts within 15 miles of my house-- the nearest Target is 45 miles away- So I shop more at Wal-Mart. It is cheaper- I prefer Target for alot of items- Target is alot more expensive on the regular stuff I buy at Wal-Mart.. Cleaning supplies, automotive stuff, cat food. Target has great sales all the time on snacks for my daughters lunches. It's also cleaner- better lights- nicer workers.. If it were closer I'd pick Target- But seeing that Wal-Mart is closer I say Wal-Mart.

Target by far!!! The drawbacks are that Walmart prices are a bit better with some things and Walmart is easier to get to...

I like Target better, but I always shop at Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart is cheaper and closer. I agree with what the other mylotters say about Target. They do have better quality items and I love their clothes.
