What's a "better store"? I've heard people say Target is better to shop at than Walmart, but Target's prices are usually higher than Walmart's.



A large chain grocery store will usually have better prices than a corner grocer / convenient / liquor store. Some people have to do some grocery shopping there because they can't commute to a Jewel, Safeway, etc.
