Hart doesn't exist where I'm from, so I had to wander over from the bus terminal to check it out. It reminds me of Zellers or BiWay (now THAT'S a trip down memory lane!).
Pros:
- Lots of different things to look at - chances are you'll find what you came looking for.
- Reasonably priced items (for the most part). Some things are rather good deals, whilst others are comparable to Walmart. As Sam mentioned, though, Walmart is not as conveniently located and I doubt the extra time and/or gas to get there is worth a price difference of less than $5.
- Hart will apparently do a price match if you bring in a competitor's flyer.
- Large clearance section.
- Nice, quiet shopping experience - this is a major plus for me. Walmart is a nightmare in that respect.
- A 90-day return/exchange policy sounds pretty decent to me.
Cons:
- The entire store is sort of dated and a little run-down, not unlike the mall that houses it.
- Some sections seemed a little pricey for no apparent reason.
