I dont usually go to this target, as there are 3 that are closer to me, but we wanted to go ti 5 below as well which is nearby so we went out of our way to try a new target.

At first glance, I thought we were in for a treat, as the store had a more modern layout than those closer, indicating it had been renovated more recently than my usual locations. Little did I know this was going to be the most misleading retail experience of my life thus far.

First stop, went to get face wash. I get a very basic type of face wash, and am happy with the name brand but prefer the target brand/generic version to save money. Turns out this store was completely out of both except a singular bottle of the name brand, which had exploded at some point, being caked in the face wash gunk. It was clear this hadn't happened recently as all the gunk was then caked in dust, hairs, and other debris, leaving one to insinuate this target was refusing to exert the small amount of effort to remove a clearly defective and disgusting item. This was the only item I "needed" the rest of the plan was just to browse, but i wish I had turned around and left instead.

We then proceeded to browse, and I shit you not we seemed to find an empty soda can or food item trash in probably 75% of the aisles we browsed.

Finally we head to check out after being disgusted and just wanting to get out as soon as possible and every single uscan was completely out of bags other than reusable ones to buy. Unsure if this is a new target policy or something but the targets near me have all had bags in the past week so if it is target policy its literally brand new in the last 48 hours since I last was at a target. When I audibly commented about the lack of bags, turning around to face the scan employee, an older lady, she pretended not to hear me and walked away from the registers entirely as if running from customers.

I'd give this store a zero if possible. This target was more trashy than any Walmart ive ever...

I frequent this Target often and usually I have pretty good experience but my last few were unfortunately awful. The most recent one left me extremely upset. While checking out at self check out there was an extremely long line however it moved pretty quickly. The young lady overseeing it was being extremely helpful with everyone there and cleaning off the stations which was great. I always actually see her working hard! I had a few items that when I scanned in the app showed cheaper than what they were ringing up for. She verified the amounts and adjusted the prices for me accordingly which was great! I had to make two separate purchases because one was for my niece and the other was for myself. So we were in self check out probably about 15/20 minutes. Anyhow the register froze after the first purchase so I moved to the next register and proceeded to make my final purchase. I finish and my daughter asks why is the security Lady just staring at us. I look up and see people proceed to leave and she asks if she can take the cart from them as they leave the store. I proceed to put my Debit card up in my wallet and load my cart up with my purchases. As I begin to walk out, she stops me and requests to see my receipt. Now I’m irritated - I say excuse me??? And she says it again. So I show her the receipt and she asks to see the other one too. So I show it to her and she’s like “ok”. We leave. My daughter asks me is it because we are black ... how do you explain to a child who watched many people walk out the store and not be stopped but as soon as we get ready to leave - she stops us. Mind you, we had an employee helping us during the majority of our purchase so what reason did you have to stop us and ask to see our receipt?! I will not be going back to...
