Like many innovations from Spot, the Indyme system was a state-of-the-art upgrade for the entire chain — a leap forward in technology, guest experience, and operations that was simply unmatched by any other retailer. Nothing else came close. Target used to be a store that other retailers...

I've completely stopped frequenting Target. My last significant purchase there was when I needed specialty GE light bulbs for my refrigerator, which only Target carried. That was nearly seven months ago. When comparing the experiences between generations, Gen-X and Gen-Z, at Target, the...

Well... I can tell you this much. It's a legitimate Target Coupon. If you want my opinion, I think someone received a paper coupon, and re-created it into a mobile Q. At the very least, Target may actually get reimbursed for it. If it starts with 9856, It's a Target issued Store Coupon...

That is so bizarre. The reason I mention this -- is when we file a Internal Theft Report, the Team Members information gets automatically added into something called TRE (The Retail Equation) which maintains a database. They also hold onto information of shoplifters we've apprehended and the...

AP either lied or more likely didn’t know. You will have extreme difficulty getting a job at any other big box store. Your name will be entered into a database that is used in employee screening.

I was genuinely curious after you mentioned it, it was a Target scholarship program. At the time, Target was heavily promoting their giving back to schools incentive, so it was probably a easy check to write. CFDA Scholarship Program The Scholarship Program was created to award annual...

We had two of the hideous bikes. One couldn’t sell at 75% off and the other was literally petaled out the door (stolen). I’m not sure if I actually cared though. Does anyone remember the umbrella stand? Edit - that was Lilly.

The commercial & claims are a scam. Their claim to “two days early” is based on direct deposit, versus a paper check. You are better off going with the most convenient bank that best suits your needs.

I've heard you speak about this particular guest in prior posts, and I am insanely curious. Who was it? I know they were outraged about the tabloids (of them) being near the checkout stands and wanted them gone before they left the store.

I can tell you that before I left, we did have a camera available for the freezer, as well as cold & moist environments. It probably is not installed in your freezer, but you never know. I left a few years ago, and have been shocked at the new developments that have came out for my buddies still...

My SuperTarget had a Bakery TM that loved to help himself to the In-Store Sushi we had. I won’t say how exactly I’m stumbled upon the issue, but, Asset Protection occasionally gets bored and is very driven to find internals to meet District Quotas. I ended up setting up a tiny pin hole camera...

How nice is it truly..that we live in a society with Freedom of Expression, instead of a Oppressed One under Communism? Something to think about.

The Target stock has been very bumpy, but I'm glad I've held on-to what I acquired while at Spot. I've been very satisfied with how it's performed the past few years, but you are right, NO ONE should have a 70% allocation. Imagine how the employees of Borders, or Circuit City felt about having...
