With Target if you have their Red Card or Mastercard you get %% off. There have been a few remodels in stores in my area and when they are done with the remodeling they send a $5 off coupon. I have ordered online and they are efficient.
Neither of you answer the phone
i never had a problem with any of the stores .i get on lie products from walmart and they deliver on time always ..customer service on phone is always nice.. and resolve all the problems ..return no problem .in store..
Yes, Target is more humane than Walmart.
The employees at Target are more present, aware, and more inclined to do their job than at Walmart.
I realize people are underpaid at Walmart, as they are as well as Target, but I have never had a good experience with a Walmart Employee. Example, I was yelled at at Walmart by the greeter for not making myself visible enough as a disabled person with a very elaborate walking problem, sitting on the bench, on top of a large pillow, right next to her, clearly waiting for the next cart. Then she gave my place in line for a scooter to the person who showed up 15 minutes after I did as punishment, after I had already been waiting 15 minutes. I just shut down...
that is one of many common experiences at Walmart. At Target for example, they don't yell at you and forget you exist when you ask for a shopping scooter. They do not have as many shopping scooters are Walmart, both of them need about 30 mobile shopping scooters to catch up with our ageing and disabled population... but at least Target is humane.
Also, I have noted, that the customers at Walmart are more inclined to violence and aggression, as observed in comparison.
Example, A person's kids were gliding around with their siblings in a cart, and they wrecked into my scooter after I said, " Uh oh, watch out." This sent a painful shock up my spine, hips, and shoulders, and I said nothing and smiled. And then the husband promptly turned the cart away from me, rushed down the next isle, said nothing to me, the husband and the children exhibited a fear/hide response, and the mother stared me down with clenched fists and puffed out shoulders, like she was going to pummel me as I slowly rode past her. One of several encounters I have had in the Walmart Establishment. After that I made note that I need a weapon on me if I am ever to enter a Walmart Store for survival purposes.
I am sick of Walmart's Corporation, Walmart's employees, Walmart's scam credit card, Walmart's horrendous 'customer service', and the degenerates of society that their corporation attracts. Do not trust 3rd party sellers on the Walmart website.... another bad experience...
I don't feel safe at Walmart. Low prices are great, but are what cost?
Besides, makeup is cheaper at Target anyways.
I would rather go to Target. I feel safer there.
How would you compare Walmart vs Target?
do not go to either
Product or Service Quality
do not know
I hate hate Walmart and will not shop there again after the Christmas tree incident. They owe me $200.00 I have heard nothing about my issue I am being ignored. Target takes care of the problem immediately.
Target is a completely different environment. The employees are much more nicer, attentative, friendly and if you need or ask for help you receive.
Their curbside service is awesome, their online orders come quickly and the website is user friendly. Their savings is good as well if you use their cartwheel and red card. They still match prices. Walmart employees are rude, never answer their phones, customer service lines are always out the door, they always have a “several cashiers” short on busy days, their online sucks, they sell products from other vendors which is so confusing and if you don’t pay attention you get stuck with the product if you don’t want it after you receive it, the savings catcher sucks now, they don’t match prices anymore.
Since the 2 major changes of no price match and savings catcher changed I no longer go to Walmart like i use to.
I try to avoid that *** hole as much as possibly. Target, although not close, is a better peace of mind and more comfortable to go to.
