[edit] Target Corporation

Did Target Corporation ever have a store called the Wholesale Club, like the article suggests? I can't find anything relevant on Google, and I can't find it being mentioned on the book On Target ISBN 0-471-66729-3. 68.226.61.4 05:55, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

I am removing this statement since there is nothing to back it up. Tuxide 19:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I finally found a reference to the Wholesale Club of Indianapolis that was mentioned previously, and it wasn't by Target Corporation. However, it is mentioned in the On Target book. Tuxide 03:55, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Warehouse Club, Inc. is different from Wholesale Club, Inc. I can't find anything about Target owning either of them. Elpablo69 02:25, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Is Makro a warehouse club? Bastie 04:00, 17 May 2006 (UTC) Yes, Makro was much larger, had more SKU's, and did not charge for membership. I recall it being in Ohio/Indiana. They are still in Europe, called Makro or Metro. Elpablo69 02:25, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] SAM'S CLUB reference

The url [1] is no longer valid. Can anyone find a source that actually works? Tuxide 20:23, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Makro

How can it be said that Makro is "defunct" if it is still operating in Europe? This whole set of articles about warehouse clubs are very Americocentric.

I agree, the article does not give a world view. I don't know how to tag it with the "doesn't give world view" tag. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arawn (talk • contribs) 14:30, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
