Just when you thought Kmart Chic was dead....along comes Walmart and the polyester lumberjack.....!
Walmart has never "done clothing" well...in that sense they are the heirs of Kmart. As to Tar-jay...well, let's just say I'd shop at Kohl's first...
An interesting statistic for the Walmart/Target matchup would be "distance driven" to get to the stores.... Target tends to be in larger metro areas where shopping is concentrated in malls and big box locations.
Walmart tends to be stand-alones in rural or exurban locations....and Walmart draws from the lower end of the income brackets....the so-called "Bubba Republicans" and born agains....who are not known for their keen fashion sense.
On a bright note, the decline in Walmart sales probably helped with the trade deficit recently...for that at least we can be thankful.
And, Hey look, the Bulls are already back on their feet today,.....the trip to the slaughter house will be postponed for yet another day.
Perhaps....?
