I hate Target.
I love it more.
Love the bright, cheerful, uniform décor. Love the fresh popcorn-y smell. Love the dollar bins right when you walk in, which always have 5-10 dollars’ worth of things I didn’t know I needed one minute ago, but now must suddenly have.
Things I also love about Target, in no particular order:
- The pharmacy, which is prompt and professional and doesn’t tell you a prescription will be ready by X o’clock, and then act like you’re crazy when you show up at X o’clock to get it;
- The clothes;
- The shoes;
- The pillows;
- The linens;
- The international market, when they have it;
- The school supplies in the fall (LOVE school supplies!)
- The Christmas and Halloween decorations, which are always cool;
- The toy department, which generally has whatever I need;
- The small electrics; and
- The books, of course.
Things I hate about Target, in no particular order:
- The popcorn, because I always have to have it, even though I don’t NEED it;
- The toy department when I can’t drag the kids out of it; and
- The fact that I can’t step foot in the place without spending WAY more money than I need to.
What about you? Any other Targetphiles out there? What’s your favorite thing about it?

Ack, just reading your post, I have a sudden urge to...go to Target! I have a 10% off coupon somewhere--there must be SOMETHING I desperately need to buy, right?!
I was strong and resisted Target this morning. I like it because it usually has the health care products--contact lens stuff, etc--that for some reason my grocery store doesn't carry any more. AND it stocks my favorite mouse traps. Yes, unfortunately, I do have a favorite--more than a favorite, actually--the only brand I'll buy.
Resist? Target? Is that possible???
