re: K-Mart vs. Target and Costco...
pretty much agree with you.

I've been very impressed with Target.
They always have lots of merchandise, good prices, and
lots of cashiers. Very little waiting.

Also - Costco is great for the best prices.

Between shopping at Target, Costco, and sometimes Wal-Mart,
I just don't see the niche for K-Mart, IMO.

I have to totally agree - our local K Mart - you have to take your ad with you when you go to purchase special priced items as they will not have their cash registers set up to give you the advertised price. So you have to hold up the line of waiting people while they research a price unless you have the ad with you. I don't remember the name of the movie, but it starred Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise - Dustin's often said comment was "K Mart sucks". There were times that I had to totally agree. I have changed to the Target store here and their parking lot, like Walmart's is usually 75% full.
