Once you find your shopping list, you got so many choices to go buy half of it, forget the rest, and get lots of stuff not even on it.
Walmart, K-Mart, Target, Amazon, Bed, Bath, & Beyond…..
Love them, hate them, grudgingly shop at them …. There’s good competition to keep prices low!
Store Quality
- The quality of the physical stores can vary wildly.
- Near INsiteFO headquarters, Walmart has the best selection and prices, Target is ok, and K-Mart is rarely worth going to. Again the stores near you may be the complete opposite.
- Bed, Bath, & Beyond (BBB) will typically have nicer stuff but higher prices unless you have your 20% off coupon which are generally plentiful with few exclusions.
Returns
- Return policies at BBB and Walmart are pretty good. Please don’t abuse them. Stores typically will make returns more difficult when they are being abused. BBB is great for wedding registries.
Price matching
- Check price matching for bigger items. You can sometimes get Amazon price matched. Home Depot, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart do price match Amazon.
- Amazon will usually have the best prices for bigger items but smaller ones can be higher than in the stores.
Online Experience
- Now the online experience for Walmart can be down right irritating since they started to sell things from other stores. Why can’t I simply see what they sell and if they have it in my local store. You can filter the results but it’s not quick and simple… unless you use Insitefo and just check the box that says Walmart (In Store Today).
