I don't know about the snack bar thing. What I can tell you is that they've become successful at being cheap-chic.
Target positioned itself above Walmart as cheap-chic but I don't know about snacks
Target is one of my favorite stores. It's way better than Walmart. Target is the second largest now, right behind Walmart. Wow, I didn't know that.  Are there Target stores outside of the USA? There was a Canadian subsidiary but it went bust. How is it like to work at Target? I am not sure, but they did have a massive security breach sometime ago. I enjoy the snack bar at Target.  Does every Target have a snack bar?
The company has found success as a cheap-chic player in the industry.
