Do you have a pole or anything obstructing the shelves in that aisle? We have a couple POGs where because there’s a pole in the aisle they’ve skipped sections.

The company thinks that Tech (or Gadget, whatever it’s called now) has too much space to begin with. I don’t see them adjusting too much within the space unless it’s allocating it to something else.

Ours were “delivered” but didn’t show up until they made a second delivery later in the week. We may have gone without had we not sent in a chatbot. I think the idea of Special Projects will persist, but I can’t imagine they’ll be as large. From what I’ve read, there may be some fresh cooler...

The rest of ours rolled in today along with the fixtures, thankfully.

Did any Men’s World Special Project stores get their Personal Care ISM bundled together like the communication said (single pallet, wrapped in purple wrap)? Ours either didn’t show up this week, or it came on the regular ISM pallet and our VM just chucked it into the pile on the floor in the...

I believe there was communication that the store wide signing wouldn’t be tied to POG at the beginning, but would be added later.

Imagine this but an entire company. That’s what’s wrong with Target right now.

Oh, does this mean that stores who are in special municipalities (Chicago, Kansas City) can actually write a schedule without having to guess how much payroll they’re getting?

It’s a part of a pilot that some stores are doing that is likely to be rolled out chain wide based on the store’s strategic roadmap.

At this point in the thread it’s hard to tell if we’re memeing or not, but I’m sure the real answer is that white mannequins are easier to maintain than other colors or glossy mannequins that higher end boutiques use. There’s literally a mannequin touch up kit on gocart that’s just white nail...

Some stores exited Men’s Denizen last year and more are expected to do so this year as apart of the 2/18 Men’s update. I think in the long run Target will exit the majority of national brands in favor of their owned brand assortment.

Headcount for Specialty TLs is already so low. I work in a $65 store and we only get two. If we didn't have a Beauty TL we'd be screwed. I have a really hard time understanding how Target could justify adjusting the current headcount instead of adding, but also it's Target.

Lots of stores have done away with this policy since it costs the company a pretty penny and there’s still profit to be made from selling Apple returns. My group’s policy is to put the items back on a secured shelf at first markdown.

Some people will remember when it was announced that we were going to to back to 11PM closing, but that was pushed back due to the Delta variant. There was an announcement in the SD COVID updates a few months later that stores would not be going back to an 11PM closing time. It's for the best...

Are you at an SFS store? UPS would occasionally ask if we needed more pallets when they'd come to do pickups.
