Target is okay for me. Canned milk ( a staple in my household), yogurt, canned soups, cereals, cheese, coffee, coke, are the sorts of things I get there at good prices. And with a Target card you get 5% off. I would never consider Target a one-stop store, but if you selectively choose what to buy there you can save money. I'd agree that the fresh meats and produce there often look unfresh. But not always. And the prices can be very good.

I started going to Target when my son was born and found that Target was the best all around store for diapers, etc.. Sure beat Walmart, and they are kept up better than Walmart and have shorter lines. As a shopper, I do not understand why anyone would shop at Walmart.

I'd certainly consider Target on a short list of retailers. But the only one I own is SVU.

If you have HD on your list you should also add LOW as it is a better value in terms of PE ratios.
