Is Kohls the same as Caldor, because they feel the same?!

All opinion of course. I have shopped at all of these stores in my life, though.

Klohls is "average to mid-high" in pricing and brands. Caldor was a discount department store closer to a Target or (if you remember them) Montgomery Ward.

Target is a lot nicer than Caldor, which was more like K-mart

This. I grew up in Ellicott City and we had the Chatham Mall nearby, anchored by a K-mart and a Caldor. I remember my mom didn't really like shopping in either store, and as soon as the Long Gate shopping center was built in the mid-90s with a Target, that's where we shopped, lol. Target has always felt like a much nicer store, even if it sells the same kind of product.

In New York Kohl's bought a bunch of the old Caldor stores.
