Target Deals on Xbox 360 and HDTVs Voted Most Satisfying, Poll Says
Target, which will offer Black Friday deals on Xbox 360 consoles, HDTVs, houseware, clothing and more, was voted the most satisfying discount retailer by shoppers in a Harris Poll released Tuesday.
The poll asked 2,500 people earlier this month to compare Target, Walmart and Kmart. The survey found that Target led in all of its scoring standards, which measured shoppers’ image and actual patronage of each retailer.
About two-thirds of Target shoppers are extremely likely to return to the store, the study found, compared with 60 percent of Walmart shoppers and 34 percent of Kmart shoppers.
