Target Stores Review Summary

Most of our budget and quality conscious reviewers really like Target stores. They say the store is a step up from the Wal-Marts and KMarts of the world yet still affordable. Shoppers liked the large variety of name brands and the range of prices of products that Target stores carry. Some of our reviewers are balking at the rather strict returns policy of Target stores and, while they like their products, they don't like having to fight for a refund or exchange. Check your local Target for their policies before buying something you may need to return and all should be well, say our savvy shoppers.

Tar-Zhay, as we say, is chic, fun and fashionable 
Pretty amazing for a retail behemoth, Target has stuck to a corporate philosophy that includes carrying inventory twhich attracts people who care about style, but who are on a budget.   Remember the Todd Oldham dorm line?  It was cool !  Now Target...

My wife and end up a Target at least once a week. It could be for cat food, coffee, a birthday card, office supplies, towels, laundry detergent, what-have-you. It is our main one-stop shopping center. The lines are never too long and we usually have no trouble finding what we need or discovering a deal in the dollar section. It is also one of the stores we look for when traveling and need to buy the few things we forgot to pack.

A good place. I love the people that works there. At least in New York, you can find a lot of Hispanic people. They are very kind, speaks English and Spanish and are very helpful. The prices are good too, and you can wait for the clearance to get everything you want for almost nothing. I have been there after Xmas and bought a lot of things for only the 10% of the original price. Including chocolates...

This was the worse experience that I have ever had. What store does not honor their own prices. Target does not honor the prices that they advertise on the web. They stated that target.com is a different store and the stores do not have to honor other stores pricing. This is lackadaisical service and I will not be shopping there again ever.

HI!

Target is the greatest store on earth! Why you might ask? Because it has everything you could need and it's cool. It's not discount store crappy it's trendy and fun. It is for the budget conscious person who isn't part of the Walmart crowd. I used to have a high paying job in the IT industry and would go to Target every Sunday afternoon shopping and always leave with so many fun things. After losing my job to outsourcing and having to move south I still go to Target every Sunday on a very different budget and still leave with fun things but also food, clothes and other things I need on a daily...

Christmas shoppers beware of scrooge and the grinch. They will both be behind the returns counter at Target telling your loved ones they are stuck with a gift they do not want.

Additionally, your gift recipients will be treated like criminals, because if they weren't they'd have a receipt.

Still, I gave gifts last year from Target. The items were sold exclusively at Target, my relatives ask only to exchanged the new and unopenned items and were curtly brushed off.

Needless to say I won't be so friendly either. I will not be doing any shopping with Target this season. I usually don't give receipts...

Target's return policy is horrible! They will only let you return so many things at a time. When you have a baby or are getting married do not register at Target because they won't let you return things like they should!!! The other thing about Target that gets me is why things are so much more expensive there than at Walmart. Just because it has a target instead of a smiley face it cost 3 dollars more?!!?

Our Target store, here in Little Rock,   AR. is all I need for shopping.  I am a single mom of

4, and I like a great value.  Superstores and the mall are super stressful for me.

I am always so pleased with the girls shoe selection and I can buy toilet paper without

 stopping at another store.

Target is the greatest store!! It has quality products at great prices. They have a great selection of clothes and shoes at awesome prices. Can not be beat. I buy everything there from pet supplies, to fashionable clothes. I go in expecting good service, and not expecting to spend a lot of money. I haven't been disappointed yet.

OMG! This is what happend yall. I'm shopping for a new microwave and there was one advertised on Target.com for $41.24 so I clicked the option to see if it was available in the local store and it was. I traveled to the store and it was in stock on the shelf for $54.99.I went to Guest Services to see what the problem was. Immediatly the salesman said "we don't honor the online prices". I advised him that online it did not state that the price was only valid online. I looked it up online in the store and he said that we could order it online for that price and get it shipped to us. Frustrated, I...

I have always liked Target more than Wal-mart until I had first hand experience with Target's return and exchange policy .... I was not impressed to say in the least and I will not be returning to any Target EVER.

 

My Grandmother lives in Oregon and sent some Christmas gifts down for the holiday. The shorts she sent were too small and the B-Brats doll she sent was defective. I called her and she told me she purchased them at Target. We went to exchange the items, not return, but exchange and I was told they do not make any exchanges or returns on anything that does not have a reciept. I called...

I have always LOVED Target, but they have become SO difficult to do business with. Had a baby registry with them recently and due to lags in their system updating my registry when items are purchased I got multiples of several things. I didn't get gift receipts, but knew they were off my registry. Target won't give store credit or ANYTHING without a gift receipt - it is horrible. I got lots of other cute outfits that were from Target, but they wouldn't even let me exchange for a different size of the same thing without a gift receipt. I have never been a big fan of Wal-Mart, but I will never shop... review »

Target is possibly my favourite all-around store.  I am there so often, I couldn't even give you a weekly average.  I get all my baby supplies there, some food, clothing, makeup, basics like toilet paper...

I love to just go there and look.  Their marketing is unreal; from the red and white pop of their decor to their price tags.

I will always be a Target lover - you couldn't change my mind about it if you tried.

If I'm there for pleasure shopping, I usually hit the racks in this order:
  • Dollar/Value Bins: I even found a totally cute "jacket" for my chihuahua once!  For $2.50, it fits pretty well! ...

I visit Target when I need something quick, like an occassionaly birthday or wedding present, or an outfit for a special event, and I don't have a lot of time to shop around. Target is not a discount store as many believe, but for me it's very convenient to shop there because it's just a couple of blocks away.
