    Good. Deserved. I used to go there once in a blue moon just because they had different stuff than my usual shops. Not anymore. They can bite my pale ghost arse.

      Yeah but isn’t that the place to buy food? If foot traffic is down it means people buy their essentials elsewhere.

        Most Targets have only a small section for food and their prices are higher than most other places. Target is essentially a Walmart for people who can afford to not have to go to Walmart.

          Heh, I’m a balkan in the US and have dropped so much cold turkey after being a loyal customer/fan for decades. Closing my wallet and heart is easy. Money and attention should go only where its deserved.

    You’re not allowed to steal from target but you are allowed to go in and try on everything all at once and leave it in the change rooms until they kick you out

      You actually can lift from target, they used to be very aggressive in apprehending people, but they are too afraid of lawsuits like most big box stores, no touching, no instigating, just aggressive customer service.

      Now some target have been hit so hard, they locked almost everything up

    My daughter has a gymnastics class one night a week and there’s nowhere for parents inside the building so we’re expected to sit in our cars. Instead of using the gas to keep the heat on, I go to Target to take a dump and walk laps. Even my wife, one of the whitest women I know, has stopped shopping there.

    I haven’t shopped at target in a while for unrelated reasons, but thanks for putting this on my radar that I should continue to avoid them.

    Target was good for hot milfs and laughing about high prices. Maybe the clothes selection for kids is good. That’s about it. Fuck Target.

      They are the only local place I can get transformers, aside from Wal-Mart.

      Online ordering will have to sustain me, but that’s a lot harder to justify as “impulse purchase.”

        I’m backlogged on the past year or so of GI Joe Classified figures if you’re looking for another way to justify spending money. “Impulse purchase for a friend.”

        I guess that means we’re friends now. Hi.

    Because the ‘DEI program demise’ triggered a consumer boycott from minority groups.

      Not just minority groups. White male here, haven’t been in since. Actually, I have travelled to and shopped in Canada in the same timeframe, which is a fun side thing.

    Almost like what Trump says isn’t actually what the majority of people want. Breaking news! The guy that never tells the truth lies again.

    Probably also doesn’t help that they cut store staff to breaking point in most markets and now those stores look like the set of a Poob zombie movie.

    Oh yeah, forgot about that boycott. They’re like the easiest one of the bootlicker stores to avoid, so I’m permanently boycotting them.

    They really need to ditch their current CEO. He has been running Target into the ground the past couple of years.
