Walmart first and foremost and Target second is shopped by affluent shoppers

I don't have a source for what he said, but where I live, the only Walmarts and Targets are out in the suburbs where it is tough for inner-city people to reach them. I don't know if there are ANY of them in the city yet. The city folks shop at Salvation Army. So do the suburban folks, too. Yes, most of the Walmart/Target shoppers appear to have some bucks. Lots of expensive cars.

At our WAL~Mart it is a mixture and like someone else said,it may depend on the location of the individual store.

I would think that a WAL~MART in the inner city would draw more of the less affluent people while a Store in the suburbs would draw more of the more affluent people.
