Top tip I have just stolen from "Lottie's" post earlier. Take a ream or two of A4 paper for any UK official docs that need printing.

Not in my experience (which includes many places outside my local area). Wherever I have found both stores (US and Canada), Target has been a bit more expensive and I've seen more "poor people" as you put it (at least what looks like low income people to me) in Walmart than in Target. Nothing wrong with being low income and looking for value within your budget. I can shop in either when needs be. Both are handy when you have kids who are college students.

I shop at Walmart because I can't afford to shop at Target, I guess that must make me one of the poorest of the poor.
