Target

How can a person not love Target? I don’t think it is possible.
But really, I am one to get sucked in by that big red target, pretty office supplies, and reasonable prices. And I don’t even care.
The staff at this location has always been exceptional. They are friendly, helpful and quick.
I was recently in looking for a certain something for work, and the gal in customer service was so patience with me. (I wish I remembered her name!) She even called around to the other local stores and had them hold what was left in stock for me. Plus, she was full of energy!

On-​line buyers BEWARE! After using a visa credit card to make an on-​line purchase, my credit card number was stolen and used. Luckily my cc co alerted me. I called Target Corp and its the same people you get calling the customer service number. Hello Nicaragua speaking. For that it’s a half hour wait on the phone. No wonder our credit card info is not secure. Shame on you Target! That’s the last on-​line order I place with Target. Anyone from Target want to reach out, I’m waiting.

Went there to shop with my girlfriend and while she enjoyed herself looking at deals I was scanning the area and getting a feel for the area.
Upon walking yiu are greeted with a salty, buttery smell. I’ve always loved that as a kid and it’s always a welcome memory. We were greeted instantly by half enthused cashiers. They did the bare minimum, pass.
Walking around I saw a worker with extremely dirty pants and a hole or two in his shirt who’s stomach was hanging out and no belt leaving a crack as a declaration of tenure and apathy.
We found a wicker dear head that she wanted but we couldn’t find the price. The only person I could find was the man with dirty pants. I asked if we could get the price he took his Barcode reader out without even acknowledging me and scanned it. His reply after scanning it was, «I can’t find it, let me go look.» He grabbed it from my hands and walked away with no direction. There was a nice gentleman who was being trained by Tenure Man who had an apologetic face and tone of voice. He was nice enough to keep us company while the price was searched for. It ended up being a party as other employees began to gather and help look for the price. Nice experience there. Roughly 7 minutes later Tenure Man came back but without the wicker deer head. He didn’t miss a beat as he went back to his job and left his trainy behind and shouted they’re coming to help you.
More waiting with the nice new guy.
5 minutes later a manager came out from the back and said we don’t know. Let’s match the price with the other one. 39.99. Someone said it’s on sale and we should be able to get the price lowered to 20.
We went to purchase and asked if they price match they’re online store. The best answer anyone could’ve ever got was, «I don’t know. How much was it?»
My girlfriend, «An employee said she thinks it’s 19.99»
Cashier then adjusts the price without delay…
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not upset saving 20 bucks but, not even fact checking? Fine… 5 dollars online for a new tablet? I’m to honest for that…
We left and I was happier for it.
2 stars because I feel this is an average experience these days. What a shame.

I’m so over this Target and their remodel! Being a California girl I’m all about Target but unfortunately the Idaho Targets leave much to be desired.
This Target store is pretty dirty and disgusting! I was hoping for BIG things with the remodel but after several weeks of shopping in the construction zone I am left underwhelmed. I prefer to drive all the at to the Nampa Target… It’s clean and beautiful AND I can get a Starbucks coffee before I shop. HOWEVER, this Target store has a lot more inventory and selection.
My biggest complaint today is the shoe section. I like the new layout BUT the shoe inventory is LOW. Aside from not having much to choose from everything was a disaster and the shelves were half empty.

I LOVE TARGET AND HAVE SINCE THE FIRST TIME I WALKED INTO ONE 20+ years ago when I moved from a small town in Alaska and I ALWAYS WILL LOVE TARGET!!!
Target is definitely the place to go if you want anything or even need nothing because you will always find stuff that you love and just must have
Two things that I wish this particular Target had would be a pharmacy and grocery store, unfortunately this one does not have these options which is a shame! I REFUSE to go to Walmart, I hate that place… For some reason it makes me itch and their products and services and in fact the ENTIRE COMPANY IS TRASH!!! The main reason I refuse to go there is because they screw their own employees over with extremely low pay and lack of health care!
Anyways back to Target… The employees are always nice and very helpful and if you have their app and Cartwheel app then you are more than likely to get some pretty amazing deals!!! Another MAJOR MAJOR thing I love about Target is their online shopping, they carry some amazing furniture and other items that you cannot get in store and they are built better and do cost more than the certain furniture you can purchase in store but you get what you pay for!!!
I could ramble on and on about Target but I’m not going to so for now that’s all I have to say about that!!!

Came in today to get my daughter some clothes, and found some great deals! It’s not the greatest target that I’ve been to, but can’t really complain… Was pretty clean. Looked like they were reconstructing the food area… Not sure…

I am a sucker for a good Target wander. Target is the sort of place that you can go with not one single thing in mind to purchase, wander around, and the next thing you know your cart is full of fabulous.
This particular location is the one I frequent the most due to it being the most convenient for me. It’s not the biggest, cleanest, or the most efficient – but, hey, it’s still Target.
Which is to say, you will be greeted with the usual level of friendly, helpful, and above all polite service that can be found at most Target stores.
Also? I have found through unintentional experimentation that these people are hard to unnerve. One time? I came through the check-​out with my hand cart filled with: A pair of Spanx, 2 bottles of wine, Lindt dark chocolate truffles, a self help book, and Bridget Jones Diary on DVD – to be met with nothing but polite smiles and a friendly, «Have a great night,» from the poor young guy who helped me.
Target workers: they’re like the Queens Guard – no matter what kind of crazy you throw at them, they can’t be fazed.
Get to it!

Nice store. The people here are friendly and helpful. It’s a big box store so nothing too special but if you need a decent price on everyday things and hate Walmart this place is for you,

Let me start by first saying I absolutely LOVE Target. I do, I really do. I would shop here everyday if there was a store conveniently located en route to my abode. But there is not, which I guess is honestly probably a good thing. I love their clothes, their shoes, their home goods, their food… seriously I could have an entire house of Target.
With that being said… I don’t know what it is exactly, but I always leave this particular location less than impressed. The layout of the store is just awkward, nothing makes sense. I always feel like I get inside this store and completely loose my bearings.
I also feel like there is less selection and continually empty shelves. I can never find my size in clothes or shoes. Which is super frustrating.
It is seriously worth the extra effort to drive out to the Meridian/​Eagle location if you need a Target fix. I can’t put my finger on it exactly, but I just feel more comfortable when I shop here.
One thing I wish both locations had, that they don’t, is a houseplant section and a garden center. I have been in stores that do, and they are great. I guess maybe it is a space issue.

It’s Target. Has ups and downs. We shop at Target when dealing with the People of Walmart gets to be too much. Target offers no fresh groceries, higher prices but less white trash. Target even opens at 8AM which bums us out because of Walmart’s ²⁴⁄₇ availability.
BUT, sometimes Target is a fresh relief from the soul sucking Walmart shopping trips.

This is the dirtiest Target I have ever shopped! There was food all over the floor and carts. The isles were cramped and narrow, and the whole place smelled like fake butter popcorn.

Free wifi!
Now, I have reviewed a couple of Targets, mainly because I like them. I like this location though and for one main reason… Free Wifi :) I’m sure the store is nice… but truthfully I haven’t been much farther than the parking lot. I needed to work one night and I was driving around looking for a place to finish up writing that had wi-​fi. I found it here. You get good connections in the parking lot. So, that being said… I’m a fan of the parking lot.
I have been in once or twice — bathrooms were clean. I got some popcorn then went back to my car.

I rolled into Boise with a few hours of sleep behind me. Not feeling too bad but not doing very well either. I banged up my knee pretty good and during the trip I got Water on the Knee. Now that slows you down pretty good and gave me somewhat of a lurch like some monster scientist’s experiment. I could have just went on home without an extra stop but Cloud Atlas came out on DVD and I felt like I had to get it. I love anything by The Wachowski’s!
Anyway so in I go into get the DVD, all lurching and such. No one paid me much mind and that was ok. One guy in electronics was friendly. In fact a little TOO friendly, asking me what I was getting and said that after I watched I should come in tell him all about it. Laying it on a little thick, aren’t you? I like good, friendly service but I don’t like it when people ham it up so much you want to run away. There IS a happy medium! Depending which Target you go to you run into characters like this. Maybe a good marketing strategy would be ‘friendly normal’??
Not much else happened here. Found a nice shirt I bought as well. Another employee walked by and gave me a panic stricken look on her face as I walked and went the other way. Geez. Get out much?

Had an exasperating time today helping a friend who had Target gift cards to spend. She had been trying since October to use e-​cards, but her items were either not available on line, or she’d order and then get a notice that her order was cancelled because the items were out of stock. She finally called customer service and was told to ‘use her smartphone to download the cards’. well she doesn’t HAVE a smartphone. She asked for my help and of course I said yes. I wrestled today, following all the instructions from the Target people to load those damn cards to my phone. Finally, while we were in the parking lot it worked (and I am very phone computer savvy. this is the of Target and their worthless app). We go into the store and shop. We are checking out and their worthless app is taking a million years loading and locking up my phone. Our cashier was great about it, but Robin, the ‘customer service specialist’ at the next register snapped at him to put our order on hold and that we needed to move off to the side until WE can straighten out the problem
.
I’m a nice person, rather a pacifist by nature, but I so wanted to shove my phone up this womans butt as I told her in NO UNCERTAIN terms that Targets phone application, which we were FORCED to use (because the ass monkeys wouldn’t send my friend hard copy gift cards) was the one with the problem not us.
I have had an issue with Target ever since we had our wedding registry there and I am sharing this story with everyone I know. DO NOT get anyone you care about a target e-​gift card. DO NOT download their app. It is a serious piece of crap.
By the way ROBIN if you are reading this, you might consider how you treat people who are spending money in your store. People who have not done a thing to deserve being treated like they are stinking up the place.
