Target in the Burbs is different than Target in Jersey City. Some of the differences are more obvious than others but we really noticed them while visiting a Target in the Burbs this weekend.

• Parking lot full: Both were packed so it’s a wash
• Working carts:  Target in the Burbs wins easily here; there were hundreds available and neatly organized at the entrance where JC has none or limited, and most are broken — Burbs +1
• Prices: Probably a wash but I am just going to give it to the Burbs — Burbs +1
• Cleanliness: Burbs wins hands down — Burbs +1
• Crowds: While the parking lot was full, you’d never know it from walking around the store — Burbs +1
• Customer service: For a return, helpful and efficient staff, I think the opposite in JC — Burbs +1
• Staff: People in red shirts walking around asking if you need help (I didn’t but thanks for asking) — Burbs +1
• Can cab it, or walk, to Target: JC wins — JC +1
• Register lines: This could easily take 30 minutes in JC with half the registers actually open at a given time. Burbs opened another register when they saw that lines were more than 3 people deep — Burbs +1

Final Score
Target in the Burbs: With 6 points the clear WINNER
