If conservatives were really determined, they could end Obamanism in 3-6 months. Stop spending on anything other than necessities. Make the economy tank, and voters will turn on it like a pack of wolves. Forget the tea parties, that’s eyewash.
I prefer Meijer to both.
Wal-Mart is the no-brainer choice for me.
yes!
the palin administration.
Target - yuppie white trash... Wal Mart - poor white trash...
Shop local “Mom & Pop” stores when possible first.
To each his own - I don’t buy groceries in either store. For general merchandise, I prefer Target over Wal-Mart hands-down.
One thing that stood out to me when I went to a WM a couple of weeks ago is the low inventory.
I remember the same store used to have stuff overflowing into the aisles so that two carts could barely pass each other. Now, it’s like a six lane freeway. The shelves are much emptier too and very little selection.
I did come away with a box of ammo though (one of three boxes on the shelf).
I try not to shop at Target but I haven’t shopped at Walmart since they decided that Fox news was too controversial to run their ads.
Wonder when the business “experts” will admit that conservatives are not participating in BO’s phony economic recovery? Taxpayers are forced to pay their taxes or go to jail, but the federal government cannot force them to go to the mall.
Let's not forget Wal-Mart pulling their ads from Glenn Beck. Wal-Mart is on my “unshop” list. I've been paying a little more at my local grocer, Target or other retailer.
FY Wal-Mart. Interesting how they went from the liberals’ “most-hated” to “loved”.
WMT peaked a year ago at approx $62, it's now at $51.13.
Prior to that peak WMT was mid 40s to low 50s for a long, long time. It now stands at $51.13.
They are making comparisions to Aug. 25th 2008, when it had jumped in a matter of a few weeks from $52 to $62. It's natural place for the past 3-5 years has been in the $45-$50 range.
I like them both but I do more shopping at Walmart. However, Target has some excellent frozen pizzas that I get sometimes. They’re hand made in Italy with an ingredients list that’s about five items long. They are top notch. The brand is Archer Farms, which is one of Target’s generics. I learned about them on one of the foodie forums.
Exactly what I have been doing since November 8, 2008.
I have the money to buy things, big ticket things. I have money to invest too. I've just decided I won't until the 0 and his merry band of thieves are gone.
Their powdered sugar donut holes are the best, especially if you refrigerate them.
Shop at Target! My younger daughter works for Target, and I want her to keep her job! My elder daughter spent a year studying in England. When she finally got home, the first place she wanted to go was Target.
Giving money to Wal Mart is like handing money to the red Chinese. I’d rather spend an extra 12 cents on toilet paper and shop at a local or employee owned store.
in our area, the target store was asked to donate money or items for care packages to the soldiers in iraq and afganistan. they refused. they did however donate generously to a gay/lesbian organization. walmart supported the troops. contest over.
Yeah, they say they love Walmart but they’ll still be at Whole Foods buying their arugula.
Actually it would be interesting to see some stats on who shops where broken down by ideology.
