By Mid-level department stores, I was refering to the May Company, Macy's, Robinson's, Buffums, Bullocks, Marshall Fields, Fielines, JC Penny ilk that populated and anchored the malls. Most of those are either gone or consolidated into one big mega company. As a result, the ones that are left are bland bland bland and expensive and the less expensive stores are just as bland.
I think Target gets the edge because they carry other houssehold products that the Kohls/Mervyns stores don't carry. That's really the oly reason I end up there - that and their prices and selection are good.
