So your Wal Mart is actually good, ala Target? Seriously, I have regularly lived near and shopped in six different stores, they all were pretty bad. Maybe it's just the state. But then again, I'm also a Sam's Club member, and the people in there couldn't be more friendly.
We also have a fairly new Target. I've been there once. Their prices are ridiculous and I have had my own personal boycott going since they refused to let the Salvation Army in front of their stores at Christmas (or "holiday" as it is now referred to). K-Mart or Wal-Mart, but no Target for me.
