    Walmart runs a very disingenuous operation, and that is a very generous statement. When one…read moresearches for an item of interest online, one is typically presented with the item at a price that is frequently attractive and competitive with other online retailers, and one in particular that needs not any mention. A number of options are available for delivery and local pickup. Typically, the price is displayed prominently, in bold, with a higher price crossed out, as if to indicate a discount. Somewhere below this discounted price is the disclaimer "Price when purchased online." While, on the face of it, this may appear to be a perfectly reasonable proposition from a legalistic, pragmatic perspective, it is a rather deceptive practice that attempts to allow Walmart to compete with certain other online retailers that operate under a completely different business model. The issue is a type of bate and switch in that one is enticed by the attractive price advertised, and thereby encouraged to buy the item from Walmart. As Walmart's primary value proposition is the ability to shop locally and purchase and enjoy the item that same day, the problem arises when such a desire is pursued by the customer. When attempting to purchase the item locally at the advertised price, the customer is then informed that the discounted price is only available when purchased online - which, to be fair is stated on the item's web page - however, one cannot simply then purchase the item online and pick it up right there at the store. No. It must be shipped to the customer's residence. It cannot even be shipped to the store for pickup at a later date. This is what me and my wife have been told on more than one occasion. Is this the true policy? I don't really know. So, in this scenario, we recently desired an item and went to the local store to purchase it. Of course, we were told that we could not purchase the item at the advertised price at the store, and would need to purchase the item online to enjoy the offered $30 savings. So, of course, we left the store and purchased the item from everyone's major competitor and received it two days later. This practice of Walmart is unfair and very deceptive. While it is understandable that they would want to compete directly with this other online retailer, it is not at all acceptable that they should do so under the same brick-and-morter name and business model. If they want to establish an online presence as a retailer operating as a remote seller and shipper, then they should do so under a distinctly and easily identifiable business domain separate from their physical, geographic business persona. Under their current policies and procedures, they are unfairly presenting an alleged advantage to the Walmart shopping experience that really doesn't exist. The crux of the issue lies in the customer's inability to purchase said item at the discounted price without doing so in a remote, ship-to fashion - even after driving to the store and expending time, gasoline and stomach acid. This is not only incredibly stupid, but detrimental to Walmart's profitability and investor commitment as a conventional retailer ostensibly servicing the real, UNvirtual purchasing public. I believe this to be an unlawful practice and I fully intend to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission citing Walmart as a false advertiser and practicer of deceptive and unfair business practices.

    I drive out of my way just to shop at the Target in Somerset, NJ from about 25 minutes away because…read moreit's by far one of the best and most organized Targets around, at least for me personally. What really stands out is that if something says it's in stock online, it's actually there in the store. That might seem like a small thing, but for me, it's huge. There's nothing more frustrating than making the trip to a store, only to find out the item you need isn't available. Somerset's Target gets it right, and that reliability keeps me coming back. The store itself is clean, well-organized, and always stocked with new items. The clothing section is a standout--everything is in order, the selection is great, and they consistently have smaller sizes like smalls and extra smalls, which is practically a miracle. On my most recent trip, I picked up winter boots, tights, and new undershirts, all of which were exactly what I needed. For basic wardrobe essentials, this is the place to go, and the prices are reasonable for the quality you're getting. It's not bargain-basement cheap, but the value is there--these are items that will last, which makes them well worth the price. The makeup department is another highlight. It's well-lit, spotless, and incredibly well-organized, which makes browsing so much easier. You can tell the staff takes pride in keeping everything tidy, and it really enhances the shopping experience. Speaking of the staff, they're actually helpful here--not just pointing in the general direction of something but genuinely making an effort to assist. That level of service, combined with the quality and selection, really sets this location apart. While I do wish they stayed open later, I understand that's not something the local team can control. Even with the earlier closing time, I'll continue making the extra trip to shop here. Somerset's Target consistently delivers a better experience and excellent value, and it's well worth the drive. I Highly highly recommend going to this Target !

Otherwise, the line at the registers was ridiculous considering the number of available employees just hanging around doing nothing behind the counter. When I finally got to my cashier she was less than plesant especially considering the wait. And I will be the first to confess I am the Queen of Ghettoness when it comes to putting my toddler in the first shopping cart I find in the lot, and taking that same cart to every store in a shopping mall. But at the end of my spree I return it! Marshalls' policy of putting locks on the wheels of their carts (so that if you even try to leave the store in order to get a cartfull of merch to your car, you will be halted and potentially hurt yourself tripping over the stalled cart, or maybe even break something) is absurd. This is a huge pain if you're buying a bunch (which would be their selling goal right?), or if you have a small child to manage with your shopping. It is impossible to get a large number of items to your car, along with a kid who must be carried (for safety in a parking lot). What a PiTA! Glad I didn't buy more, and the rules printed on every cart, with cumbersome BOOT LOCKS at every wheel inform me not to do so in the future. Y su version de las reglas escrito en espanol no es completo, es muy estupido!

    Another stop during my rainy stay at the beach…read more This has all the stuff Ross normally has, but certain items stood out in greater number (like similar stores nearby) as stock geared toward rental home needs, vacationer needs, and seashore needs. For example, they had a bunch of small coolers (for bait or small catches), or for taking something to the beach. Useful, for sure. I didn't need it for those puposes, but I still bought two smaller sizes so I could keep frozen groceries in it when I trek out to do a million errands, and need to keep stuff cold while I make the rounds. It was a great deal, and will definitely work at the beach for me as a secondary use. This Ross was much better kept than the one I last visited in Key West a year ago (there aren't many near my home). It was well lit, clean, interior felt newish, merch was attractively presented, well stocked, and easy to navigate. In addition to the coolers, I had to get a Lacoste alligator towel! Straight out of The Preppy Handbook (yes, that's a real book). It was so 80s and too funny, I had to get one in blue. It's going to be my son's beach towel! I was surprised Ross had a deal with Lacoste because this was not a knockoff, the label legit says Lacoste. They also had weed socks and all kinds of crazy stuff in the Young Mens' section. This is the first time I've seen such stuff in such a large box chain store. I mean, Spencer Gifts, sure, but Ross? Staff was friendly, but while multiple associates were on the floor, only one register was open, which created a line, and was unnecessary. So they lose a star there. I had fun looking around but wish I had more time. I left happy with my deals, and wishing they had a store closer to me!
