Leaked Walmart memo reveals competitive threats

maybe i'm weird but i actually prefer the vibe at walmart to the pseudo upscale feel of stores like target. at walmart you know what youre getting, theres no pretense that you are there for any other reason than cheap crap. people of all economic backgrounds are all there just to get the best deals.

I don't know what's "pseudo" about cleaner floors and surfaces and better-organized merchandise. It's not just about decor. The Wal-Marts I have been to are a filthy mess, and it's clear no one cares.

The one thing I like about Target is that it's quiet, they don't play music there and there's rarely talking over loudspeakers etc.

Thing is the vibe part I see but quality wise, they’re on par with others. It’s not Dollar store crap.

I agree. Target is much more annoying; just as bottom-of-the-barrel, but they depend on pretending they're not.
