So there has been a few experiences that just aren't very target like.. im a pokemon collector. I know target is stocked by a vendor. Target will tell you theyre not allowed to touch the product. But that is a lie. Its up to the manager. But some issues are, they break street date for release days alllll the time. They say theyre not dated to release on a certain day. And im pretty sure thats a lie why have a release day friday, if you're going to let stores break release date?! (Makes no sense) .... one time a buddy and I walked in. They said oh sorry the vendor worries about that and we are out anyways. We went back 45 minutes to 1 hour later we were looking at the shelf hoping they stocked because we know how this store is and As we're standing there 2 scalpers standing about 3 ft away had a employee come up to them with pokemon product and gave it all to them. He looked at us as we looked at the empty shelf and said, Oh sorry, I didnt know you two wanted some.. We asked if he would grab us some (sincenwe just watch him hand his buddies 2 boxes each) and he said there was no more, do we left. Another buddy of our stopped in target 10 minutes later and the target employees were stocking the shelves, not the vendor, and thats right after telling us they had none!!! If there is a pokemon release day that week. Altoona target should do what every other target does and hold the product and set it out at open.. here are multiple pics of other targets waiting for the release day that week, and having the shelves ready for when doors open. It sucks knowing there is a release day friday, and you find out that target stocked tuesday or Wednesday instead of just waiting until friday release day. It seems employees are being choosy who gets product. It seems like altoona always has alot less product than other walmarts. Like alot of it is getting back doored before it even gets to hit shelves. I stopped in for the pokemon booster bundle release today. They didnt have any. The lady threw 1 three pack blister on the counter and said that's it. We heard they stocked Tuesday. Please fix this. Figure out when release days are save all your product that week and put it out at open on release day. And also look into where all the other product is going. It wild one target would grt like 100 boxes. And...
Read moreI've been having trouble with losing things lately. Like, almost everything.
It started a couple weeks ago, when I was taking a shower. I dropped my bar of soap and it landed near the drain. I reached down, picked it up and it slipped out of my fingers again as I was standing, but this time it didn't hit the ground. It was gone.
I looked until I ran out of warm water, and then I turned the shower off and continued to look, but I couldn't find it anywhere. I searched the whole bathroom before giving up and moving on.
Later that day, I dropped an M&M and couldn't find it.
It's been two weeks and it has gotten to the point where I have lost nearly everything that I come into contact with. I've lost shoes, I've lost cups, I've lost pens and pencils. I've lost tubes of lipstick and bottles of nail polish as I was using them.
I have started to avoid touching things and have taken to wearing gloves because the only common denominator is that I only seem to loose things that I touch with my left hand. The only problem now is that the gloves keep disappearing off of my left hand.
I am so scared of what is happening that I cannot sleep at night, and I am afraid to touch my keys or phone, much less my cat Scribbles for fear that I may not see them again.
Target has great prices on gloves (as well as lots of other items that you would hate to have go missing), and they have a very convenient store layout that lets me feel comfortable that I won't accidentally bump into someone while shopping. I don't know how I would deal with someone potentially going missing if I...
Read moreOn Thanksgiving I ordered a TV online and went to pick it up at my local Target in Altoona, PA. When I went to pick it up the individual working in the customer service was about half asleep and definitely uninterested. Last thing on her mind was serving customers. She did say she needed to study for her college class. Im sure thats what Target is paying her to do, study. She looked up my order and got one of the other younger associates to go in back and pick it up. They were all having side conversations and again serving customers was last. They were laughing and having fun. I got home and realized they have given me the wrong TV. There was a slight difference in model numbers and the price was the same. Not a big difference. However I ordered the specific model because of the stand. The model they sent me home with (not what I ordered) had a stand that would not work in my room. As it being the Holiday season I figured through all the craziness they handed me the wrong TV. I then called in and the uninterested customer service rep. told me she could not look up my order. I just asked if the TV I ordered was in the back. I gave her the model and she said she still couldn't look. I then stated, "you store these TVs people order online somewhere, and amongst that stock please go look to see if that TV is there." She did this reluctantly and stated that TV wasn't there. I am returning this TV and will never step foot in that Target again. I hope someone reads my tale of woe and follows suite. Ordered a...
