I only go to target usually once a year, usually around Christmas time. This year is a bit different bc Iām newly disabled, and Iām still adjusting to a lot of changes in life. If that werenāt the case I may have caught this sooner but at the same time, I know the last 3 years in a row Iāve had the same issue with every single visit to Target. Not only this location either, the fact is that Targets pricing systems are a huge failure. Or maybe itās the employees failing? I donāt know. But I know thereās another big chain store that everyone compares to target all the time, and says that store is ghetto in comparison... it might be but theyāve never messed up this bad.
This incident happened on 12/28/18. I can no longer drive bc I have narcolepsy and I was in a semi rush to catch a bus... narcolepsy also impacts your ability to pay attention to detail so issues like this most likely hurt people like myself more than other people who might notice quicker. On my receipt I had these 4 little mini tin pale canisters full of gumballs that were supposed to be Christmas clearance. They sat on a side table that said ā$3 and under!ā And then it also had a sign that said ā50% off listed price!ā I got them for my kids before anyone judges, theyāre only 11 and this years Christmas forced me to admit that all Christmas āmagicā isnāt magic at all bc of my situation. So to average person, the MOST these stupid gumballs could cost is $1.50. But it was a semi large can of gumballs, but GUMBALLS nonetheless. In my rush out of the door paying, I did noticed the pricing was high. I bought mostly food, I used my EBT card, then paid with a $40 gift card and STILL had to pay $10 in cash which blew my mind at the time, but I couldnāt figure out what caused it until today. The 4 gumballs... they were different colors so they had different SKUs and apparently thatās too complex for their system. The full price being $5.99 (absurd for gumballs!) 1 charged me $2.99, and the other 3 charged me FULL price of $5.99. But that didnāt explain why I paid $50 outside of my ebt payment and then I noticed the little marks off to the right of each item... and that made it click for me. Not only did they overcharge me $14.97 for some friggen gumballs but they also have them charging as if theyāre general merchandise! Or At least NOT edible bc they didnāt charge them to my EBT card which forced me to pay cash(GC etc) for them. This is a bigger issue than for just me, if I didnāt notice Iām sure thereās tons more that didnāt and thatās something people start class actions for. Target makes money on money, but they donāt make as much profit on EBT payments. Ill def be going back, but given that this isnāt a first or even second offense for them, I think itās time someone look into it further and monitor what theyāre doing behind the scenes. I still canāt understand how they charged them as non food items even though they rang up under the grocery...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThe reason I selected this score is because I feel that I was racially profiled. I did not enjoy my visit to this location. I came to the store to purchase a few tops. The moment I stepped inside the store, I was followed around like I was a criminal. I also felt unwelcome and very uncomfortable. This was my second visit to this store. The first visit(12 months ago) went fine. I had never experienced that, and it made me feel very uneasy. There was a young male employee that kept walking back and forth staring in my direction while I was in the juniors section. He kept looking over at me like I was about to steal something. And finally after I had made my purchase at the self check out and was walking out, there was a female employee who had followed me to the door as I was walking out, trying to make sure I didn't take something. Again, this made me feel extremely uncomfortable and when I got out to my car I didn't know what to think. Neither of the employees said a word to me while I was in the store, but it didn't change the fact that they stereotyped me based on my skin color. I will not be visiting this location again. I like Target and would like to continue to shop at Target but not at this location. I will go to another location or shop online. I feel as though the employees at this store need to be retrained and they need to learn how to treat customers, because this is...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThey get NO stars!! Said an item was in stock so ordered online get there to pick up instead of out of stock so instead of going to the store, they conned me by taking my money now I canāt use that money for anything else because itās still not returned even though they gave me no product in the day before it was out of stock. Thatās why I had check stock and thatās why I didnāt go to the store. Otherwise I wouldāve went to the store so now Iāve got no money and no product and I canāt even replace it on Black Friday because they havenāt even given me my money back, this is a racket and a scam and weāll see what the Attorney General has to say about that !! Plus the time and money he took buy me going to the store to pick it up for no reason because it...
