Target and Walmart. They are always in competition, and always offering great deals and bargains. But which is the better value? Let’s take a look:
Why you should shop at Target:
- Double up on your savings when you stack manufacturer coupons and Target Store coupons
- Download the Cartwheel app to save a percentage discount on specific items. This can be used along with manufacturer coupons and Target store coupons.

- Rain Checks are offered (at most locations) and will honor the sale price.

Why you should shop at Walmart:
- Use manufacturer coupons to lower the already low prices. If your coupon value is higher than the price of the item, you’ll get that difference back in CASH!
- Rebate apps like Ibotta will offer you cash back on your purchases.
- Rain checks are offered if an advertised item is out-of-stock at your Walmart. You’ll get a rain check so that you can purchase the item at the advertised price when it becomes available.
- Price matches on current advertised sales – bring in the competitor’s ad and show it to the cashier for a price adjustment.
- When you shop, have Walmart.com pulled up in your internet browser. If you see a price cheaper online (which happens frequently), show the cashier for a price match!
- Savings Catcher App allows you to scan your receipt to find savings. They’ll compare prices and if they find something lower, you’ll get a credit via gift card!
- Get marked down prices on meat when you shop earlier in the morning. By around 8am, the meat department has marked down their prices. Items approaching their “sell by” date can be frozen and used later.
- Walmart Grocery allows you to order fresh groceries online with free same-day pickup. They will even load your groceries into your car!
- Watch the end caps, and clearance sections for amazing discounts. Also, check out clearance items within the main aisles of the store to save up to 90%!
Both Target and Walmart have some great ways to save! Walmart has everyday low prices with extra ways to save, but Target offer much more in savings. If you have the time, we think Target is the better choice.
