On some items, Target will actually be cheaper. (Ask me about the price
of size 2 Huggies at various stores....) For clothing, I've been more
impressed with Target than Wal-Mart, in general.
I've spent enough time shopping in both stores to have a pretty good
mental picture of which store has a better selection in a given
department, so I do some shopping at each. I just somehow end up at
Target more often. (Specific location might have something to do with
that, though.)
Target: clothing for my children, diapers size 2 and smaller, diaper
wipes, plastic storage totes, air cleaners, certain electronics
Wal-Mart: baking pans, kids' dishes, mirrors, hardware (nails, screws,
etc., not tools)
Sam's: parmesan cheese, diapers size 3 and larger, batteries, tires
