Target

I love Target but I was pretty bummed to see so much behind locked cases. I suppose they’re doing what they need to do, but it sure makes completing shopping a challenge.

The newly configured grocery area is excellent given the small floor space they have devoted to it. They have conveniently curated categories the items that I frequently purchase, making it fast for me to find what I need all within one tidy area of the store. (chips, ice cream, fresh produce) The staff was friendly and helpful and I was happy to see that with their reliance on self-checkout, this location hadn't reduced their staffing level (at least at the 6pm time frame that I was there) like other local retail stores have. The result is that the shelves were well stocked and zoned, the aisles were clean, and there was someone to ask for help when I needed it.

I love Target and usually have a fun time when I go there as I can grab needed items as well as browse the isles and find some treasure I didn't know I needed like holiday candles or dog toys. Unfortunately this Target has the WORST employees. Don't ask for help because you aren't going to get it or be directed to someone who could answer your question. If you enjoy getting eye rolls from employees who obviously don't want to be there then this is your spot. Otherwise I'd pick a different store.

LOCKED CASES & LONG WAITS We’ve all seen the cases going in. My time is valuable just like anyone else’s. We walk away and order on amazon or from another store when I have wait or hunt someone down to open a case. I won’t do it. You want or money or you don’t. Also, it ruins the shopping experience. I don’t want to feel pressured if I want to read a label.

Moved recently to area, and was used to a different environment with Target employees...this store is very nice, newer, and very clean... But employees are not friendly and they look unhappy most of the time... Doesn't help that a lot of items are locked in and you have to ring someone up to get something... Employees here need to remember we are consumers and not asking for free items... A little less attitude and a smile go a long ways.
