Wait. Do people go into Kmart and target weekly?

[–] yesterdayshero@aussie.zone 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yes. I don't personally, but know Kmart at least is cheap for clothing basics, especially for kids. It also has cheap homeware and small appliances. Not everyone can afford to buy expensive brands.

Edit: should also point out, they pretty much have clearance stuff on sale weekly, so people probably go to see what they can get for cheap.

Yep, I get all my kids clothes from kmart/target. No point getting expensive clothes when they'll outgrow them anyway.

I get most of my everyday clothes from Target. You get the occasional dodgy seam, but for jeans, trackies, and t-shirts they're pretty good. In no way haute couture, but it's $10 a t-shirt.

How long do their jeans last?

Not long, but I'm no tradie, I barely wear them, so long enough for me.
