What the heck happened to Target???
I don’t know how many of you have been into Target recently but if you can help it please don’t! What used to be a great place to go for a bargain in clothes, bedding, toys, cosmetics and home wares has now decided to live up to it’s school yard name of “Targét” and has almost become another Myer.
After going there today i have to say i am in shock, not only is everything neat and spotless (there where no clothes carelessly flung over racks or falling off hangers) but everything was colour coordinated… no joke. However shoppers beware, apart from the occasional bargain ( i got a heap of men’s work shirts for $12-14) the average price of things has not just increased but SKYROCKETED. Where you use to be able to get cheep women’s shoes and clothing for around $10 a pop the average price for a top is now $50. How on earth do they rationalise this? The fact is that target changed it’s image (and prices) when they caught on that shopping at target was the ‘COOL’ thing to do in high-school, i mean they even get some woopty-doo fashion designer to do a line for them, which might i add they are charging Boutique prices for. The fact is that they have totally missed the point. Target was cool because it was so cheep and junkie, kids could afford stuff there and they had stuff kids like none of this fancy-nancy stuff they have now. So until the real target returns i encourage every one to support Kool-Mart (Aka: K-Mart) and not this middle Australia crap.
