Our Target was remodeled and it sucks. There are huge spaces where you need none there is no space in aisles and it's like products are blobbed around the store and it seems like they have less stuff. I understand the concept of making it to fit the neighborhood but it fails to do that too. Any target I stop into should be easy to navigate and almost the same. So dumb to change it.
Sounds like they are open, but now operating differently.

I've never understood the appeal of Target. It's a slightly cleaner Wal-Mart. It's fine for certain products but the clothing and household items are absolute garbage....like Wal-Mart.

I think Target just gives that certain undeserved snob that little bit above.

That's literally the appeal. Quality was better under Fields though.

The occasional time I go into a walmart, I feel like I need a tetanus shot after getting back to my car. That's 100% the appeal of target.

Wal-Mart is literally a third world country. I'm not sure why they are the big thing in most of this country.

Dollar general might make Walmart look high class. I’m not sure, tend to avoid both.

You can get out of Dollar General in 1/4 the time, that’s it’s appeal over Walmart

Have you been to Hello Tokyo on Golf Road? Not an official Daiso store, but they carry a lot of Daiso products. Daiso is one of the 100-yen store chains in Japan (basically their Dollar Tree).

Down in Tennessee where I just was, it seems there is literally one on every damn corner, it is crazy.

JERRY: Hey. How was the Rainbow Room?

KRAMER: Uh, well, we, uh, we had to leave early. There was a, uh, slight monetary discrepancy regarding the bill. Listen, uh, can I borrow some pillows?

JERRY: What for?

KRAMER: Yeah, well, my Japanese friends are gonna stay with me.

JERRY: I thought they all had suites at the Plaza?

KRAMER: Well, I'm sorry, Jerry, we all don't have checks rolling in like you do.

JERRY: What about all that money from the kimonos I wear?

KRAMER: Well, they ran out of it. Manhattan can be quite pricey. Even with fifty thousand yen.

ELAINE: Fifty thousand yen? isn't that only a few hundred dollars?

KRAMER: Evidently.

Yeah... but I can get all that and a slice of pizza and a 40 of Busch light or Natural Ice (seem to be the big sellers) at the Casey’s next door. Sure, the party decorations might be scented pine tree things for cars but sometimes you work with what the store gives you.

They should put a Casey’s in water tower place.

Stopping at Dollar Tree tonight for 9V batteries.

Change your clocks, change your smoke/CO detector batteries.

Same ownership I’m told... although that looks more like it was a local thing vs chain wide on further review. Can’t believe Leroy at the seed shed gave me wrong information. Should of talked to the Pioneer salesman instead.

Went Saturday to go to the American Girl store for my daughter’s birthday. Most of the big stores had lines to get in and it was pretty busy in general. Waited 20 minutes for a table at Harry Carey’s. Everybody was still social distancing except the elevators were a free for all.

Looks like Target told the building “no thanks.”
