hate! >:(

You know, I never liked Target that much to begin with.  I may just Boycott them all together now.

That's so un-homer of you. (Target is a Minnesota-based company.)

I know.  LOL  Karen's brother even works for them in one of their distribution warehouses.  He's been there for 18 years. Hates it.

My wife LOVES shopping at Target. She's always reading posts on shopping forums about how Target reduces prices on certain products on a set schedule until they're marked 90% off. This information HAS to be leaked by Target workers because they aren't advertised sales. She's read about people taking items that they want and hiding them in other parts of the store until the prices drop to 90% off. Then they go "find" the products and purchase it. It wouldn't suprise me of some Target employees are doing the hiding.

LMAO!  That's funny.

The BIL tells me all the time about the loss-leaders they run.  But how much Tide can a guy need.

I buy stuff from Target a lot.  Their website has a good "find this item at a store" feature, so it's convenient to tell if a store has something in stock. (and I'm a lazy bastage)

I just bought the one-year-old some new sticks from Target for Christmas.

Precisely.
