Great place to run in and eat or grab a drink before or after shopping. The only thing I was sad about is the small variety of infant carseats. I didn't want an expensive car seat since I only need it for once or twice a month usage but all Target had was graco and other top brands. I was hoping to get cosco or safety first. Everything was more than I wanted to spend for a once in awhile use. Lower end brands would be nice to see in stock. Also Up and Up brand wipes and diapers are terrible. You have to go name brand if you want quality whereas other competitors have their off brand versions of stuff and it's a reasonable quality and price. For example I get parent's choice baby wipes...it's way better than most name brands and beats Target by a long shot. Targets baby stuff is just awful in my experience.
But let me tell you about customer service. They are helpful, thoughtful, fast paced and well educated on the products they DO offer. They even helped me cut open my car seat so I could use it right there. The customer service rep helped me adjust the straps and showed me how to connect and disconnect the base. I was stressed out and worried and she was calm and helpful! Hands down Target knocks the completion out with their customer service. I've never been so satisfied with customer service before. Also their self checkout computers arent glitchy and weird. They work so fast and so well. I normally avoid at all cost but these things worked amazingly well. I don't know if it's just my luck that u always run into insufferable computers everywhere else or if Target just has better self checkouts. Lastly, and this could be due to Target seeming expensive compared to retailers like Walmart, but Target is not normally overcrowded or suffocating with people in every corner. I feel so anxious at Walmart because the store is always packed. I don't know if that's just because Walmart has great prices. And poor people (like me) outnumber the middle class so we just choose to shop there in large numbers or if it's targets overall atmosphere. But when I am already stressed I don't need the large crowds that come with shopping at Walmart. I give Target a 4/5 Price point, variety and their brand makes it to where I am unable to give them a full 5 But I give them 4 for: ease of finding everything I need, great service, great self checkout, nice atmosphere and a little cafe for a quick fix. Oh and if you're a Starbucks fanatic,...
Read moreI went here to buy an air fryer but when I got it home it had some sort of leftover food inside! Uh oh! It was covered with oatmeal. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I thought “Dang it!” So today I brought it back to the store. I’m thinking “how do they know I wasn’t the oatmeal culprit??” To my surprise the kind person at the return counter didn’t even bat an eye. She returned it, apologized, and it was as simple as that. All of that worrying, tossing and turning, for nothing. I got all my money back!! Every penny! Pretty nice right? Not bad huh? I happened to make the trip with my friend. We started in the women’s clothing section. Boy oh boy is target really stepping up their game. Cute clothes after cute clothes. I’m talkin style, fashion, the works. My friend and I did not initially plan to buy clothes. I bet you can guess what happened. Our cart filled up just like that. My friend picked a few tops from the women’s section. We ventured to the men’s section where we found a couple gems. (We’re girls, but we can still buy men’s clothes, ya know?) After the men’s section, we walked back to the socks. Are you looking for socks with quirky designs? Target has em. We ended up in the home furniture and decor aisles. My friend really needed a small rest and low and behold there was a fancy chair on display where she could take that breather. We picked some tea and candy and pb cookies on our way back to the check out area. But along the way, the bright beckoning lights from the cosmetic aisles lured us in. My friend knew of this type of lipgloss with tiny flowers inside. We wanted the peach scent, however is was jam packed full of the tiny flowers. We were pretty bummed because it just didn’t look at good as the lipglosses that were not packed full of tiny flowers! So we unfortunately settled on the watermelon. Which is really a fun summer flavor if you think about it. Not really a bad flavor at all then really. Summer is coming after all. In the end we were happy with the decision we made. We chose self check out. Everything we were purchasing had a barcode, THANK GOD. Except the last item: the lipgloss. Barnacles. Luckily there was a employee with cute glasses on who was able to look it up lickety split, on her handy dandy employee device. That about wraps it up. Alls I gotta say...
Read moreFrom the time my daughter was small I learned that target exchanges gently used and even stained cat and Jack close for a merchandise card. I’ve been doing this for at least six months now. As some thing gets worn out, I take it in, return it as long as it’s within a year, and then I end up getting her new clothes. Like I said, I’ve done this repeatedly and there was never an issue. Now, all of a sudden, I’m trying to exchange out her clothes and they are telling me that it can only be if there is a factory error or in brand new condition. The type of rules that would be if I was returning a never used item. This was never the stipulation before. I was specifically told that the item can be outgrown, damaged, or in perfect condition… As long as I had proof of purchase, I could return the cat and jack item to pick out new ones. This was my whole purpose for shopping target clothing because I thought it was amazing that they took the clothing back and I believe donated it or some thing but I’m not 100% sure. Now I will be shopping elsewhere. How do you change the rules after they’ve been accepting my things all of this time and all of a sudden I can’t do what I’ve...
