Aw, I'm a former SUPER Target employee. Not to be confused with those silly little plain Target stores. :P

Ummmm. The one I usually go to, no, but there are a few nifty chick stores nearby and an AWESOME year-round swim suit store with lots of Carribbean (sp) stuff in it.

I only have Kmart and Target to choose from here - and I much prefer Kmart - Target is not really that much of a discount store - more expensive and further away from my home :)

I was the "one" that voted for Kmart at this point :P

I LOVE Walmart tho and waiting for the arrival of a parcel from a friend in the USA that has done a little shopping there for me ... any day now :D :D :D

I love Wal-Mart and Super Wal-Mart. :D
I love to shop :D :D

I know many people say thet Wal-Mart runs the little guy out of business. But I don't have a Million in the bank. You can say, "Hey, it only a few cents to a dollar extra per item". But add that up over just a few months :o . Time, and wallets, are tight :(

I prefer Target, but I think that's because it's a newer, cleaner store than the Wal-Mart, and the Super Target actually has a decent grocery store (I'm a food snob). I'll go to KMart, but only if I'm in a major hurry (it's the closest, but I fear for my life every time I go there).

wSs.

I am a big fan of Wal-Mart, We go every week and buy everything from toothpaste to groceries to tires.

Our K-Mart is a total waste of time and Target is too far and too expensive. If I want clothes, I go to Kohl's.

Yes, women wear thongs... It's what made Les Wexner enough money to building the mansion (and the rest of that housing project) over in New Albany...

As for luck.. what, you can't find any wearing them, or any to wear? :)

Yeah, they do! I'll probably register there. They also have cute maternity clothes (which are relatively cheaper than normal maternity stores)!

I think I have told you this before. I don't remember because I know a lot of preggers people right now. But don't bother registering anywhere BUT Target because that's where everyone will buy stuff for you anyway!

Target maternity clothes are AWESOME! You'll be pretty preggers in the winter, so you'll also be able to get away with wearing "big" sweaters that are sooooooo comfy.

Which discount department store could you simply not live without?

Where do you buy your thongs? (just kidding!!)
1)They're all okay, but a lot of the young salesclerks & cashiers at Wal Mart are dumber than a box of rocks.

2)Wal Mart and Target.

3)Matilda's used thongs & condoms, ltd.
