Target

By far one of my favorite targets. They have everything you need. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It’s clean and organized. It’s also not super busy so I can run in, grab what I need, and checkout without any waiting. The self checkout really helps!

Mediocre. The staff is friendly, and very helpful when you ask for help. usually I’m able to find everything I need. I like that they added self checkout, and overall they have a pretty good selections of items from baby to home goods.

I am from Minnesota, the land of Targers so maybe my take on this target is a bit too strong but Ive been coming here for about 4 months now and here we go
–there is no starbucks here, which is a minus in my opinion, but there is Freshii
–they are very clean and organized BUT often times there are out of staples, like pet food, shelf liners, ranch, eggs.
–sometimes you can can score some amazing deals on clearance
–I believe there are at least 16 registers, but they never have more then 2 – 3 open and often times your target run is 30 min and then you have to wait 20 min in line to check out. The express check out lines are almost never open and I dont understand that.
–prices dont always match with what its marked /​ringing at the register. Watch out.

Went to this location to purchase a crib. Shanti Drake and several other members of the staff made the transaction and experience a very positive one. Unfortunately, the crib was the last one in stock and the item was damaged. Without hesitation, a staff member immediately got on the phone with surrounding stores to locate the item and make sure the available crib was in good condition. Excellent customer service all around. Will definitely shop here again.

I was in the checkout line in a great deal of physical pain (metastatic breast cancer in my hip), and I was at the end of my pain reliever. I chose a line with one man in front of me holding only two items. Score! Unfortunately the man needed to use his tax exempt certificate and literally eight minutes later I was still standing waiting for the clerk to figure out how to remove the $ 1.80 sales tax from the sale. Target needs to have an easier system to use for removing sales tax. Eight minutes is unacceptable. On a more positive note, the front end manager saw what was going on, gathered our things and moved us to another line which was moving faster, and took $ 10 off a purchase for our trouble. Thank you!
The store is always clean when I visit and the employees are generally nice. Just try to avoid getting in a line where someone needs to use a tax exempt certificate. Otherwise, a solid shopping experience.

This is a very special Target. I drove specifically to this Target a couple of times as they have items in stock that other locations do not. They usually have a good amount of clearance, too.
This location is more clean and organized than other locations which is a big plus for me. Most staff I’ve encountered has been very nice and even chatted me up a bit while checking out.
I’ve only gone in off hours and even then it’s seemed fairly busy to me so I can’t imagine the crowds during peak times. I have a feeling it gets insanely busy.
I love me some Target. I may even be obsessed. As far as Target goes, this location ranks in my top 3 for sure.

One of my first experiences in the puddle was at this Target location. I was having severe stomach cramps and needed lactate pills. I came here and at check out I was totally appalled at «Midwestern kindness»
Check out dude: «How are you ma’am»
Me: head phones on with music can’t hear and looking down at phone to find an urgent care
Check out dude: «I SAID EXCUSE ME, HOW ARE YOU»
Me: sick.
I was appalled by the aggressiveness.
Later this store installed self check out lines. Thank goodness. Didn’t have to deal with «friendly» puddle people anymore. But no one knew how to use the self check out kiosk.
So I just started going to wheeling or HP.
Avoid this store. Nearly ruined target for me.

I like this Target. It actually has a Tech Center! Even though there wasn’t anyone there, I still think it’s pretty interesting to see a Tech Center in Target. Besides that, this is just like any other Target. Decent service, plenty in stock, and a self check out for a faster checkout. Also, instead of a fast food counter, this Target has a Freshii store within it. I read up on Freshii and I’m glad Target is promoting a store with an eco-​friendly mission.

I live less than a mile from this Target and love Target in general, however there are a few Team Members at this location who consistently comment on my purchases. Recently I was buying a few personal items and was so embarrassed by the checkout person’s comments which seemed to go on for minutes! Love the place, but would suggest management coach to this.

Go here in the early evening, any evening, 18 checkout counters, but only 4 staffed, none are «12 items or less», and there are no self-​checkout lines. Makes stopping in to buy two items annoying. C’mon, target.

I love it here. I buy a lot of good things on clearance every now and then. And I get all my pants, socks, and underwear either here or from costco. I hate paying more than I have to for clothes. I hardly ever goto expensive stores like maycs. And I also get my medicine here. A+ pharmacy. Nice staff.

The store is nice but the lines are terrible at all times. They need to bite the bullet and add more cashiers.

Update April 2016: Be forewarned, they installed self-​checkouts a few months ago and they are terrible. Every few items (the lighter ones in particular it seems) you’ll get an error message after you ring an item up, and have to wait for an employee to come over and override it. Today it happened four times to me while I was checking out. The fourth time it happened, the employee monitoring the self-​checkouts had disappeared and I had to wait a long time for another employee to notice me standing there with the little red light going off. The icing on the cake was when the register would not take my Target card (which is relatively new and has been used several times already), so she had to switch me over to a new lane altogether. I told the employee how bad these new self-​checkouts were and suggested she tell her boss, but she said amazingly «they don’t care» and «management is really bad here». OK, so I guess that means she is not going to notify management. That’s alright, I’ll write this up on Unilocal.Maybe they’ll read it here instead. PS — While I was checking out at least 2 other people had problems at the self-​checkouts. What a joke. Lowering my review by a star, and using lanes with real cashiers from now on.
Original Review:
This is a really nice Target. It’s big, stocked well, bright and clean, with generally friendly, helpful employees. Whoever manages this store does a good job, because I can tell you not all Targets are run like this. (Ahem, I’m thinking of you, Golf Mill Target manager!)
The best part are the checkout lanes. They usually have a supervisor out there making sure the lines do not get too long. If they do, they call in another checker to open a lane. You can generally get in and out of there pretty fast.
One thing that irks me about Target (and this has been going on for years here and at other Targets) is that the prices on the shelf do not always match what comes up at the register. I’d swear this happens at least once almost every time I go there. And somehow 90% of the time it works out in Target’s favor! (Update 2÷12÷15: I just read that Target got fined $ 4 million in California for this very reason! Maybe now they will pay more attention to their price tag problem.)
Honestly I think they are just sloppy and don’t take down or replace the old price tags. But it is truly ridiculous how many times it happens. So keep an eye on that register as they ring you up!
However they do have a decent policy that if you tell them the price rang up wrong, they will usually adjust it for you right there at the register, no questions asked. They do not waste everyone’s time sending someone or calling back to the department to confirm the price you stated like most other stores would do. (ahem, Jewel!)
All in all, a really good store if they could just get their posted prices correct.

Inventory counts are off. I checked online before I came in and it said that they had couple in the store. I get there 30 min later just to find out that they dont have any. I asked one of the associates for help and he siad that the inventory says couple in stock. I asked him to help me look for them and he said that they could be anywhere in the store and walked away! Never coming back to this Target !

I love Target. This particular one is very clean and has pretty much identical layout to the one in Schaumburg– which I love. It meant no wasting time looking for things.
Anyway… I decided to write a review because of the experience I had here today.
Ever see a price on something and think «it’s too good to be true»? Well this happened to us today when we stumbled upon $ 10.99 12-​pack of Summer Shandy Leinenkugel’s. We literally just saw it for $ 15.99 at a Jewel near our house the day before. So of course, I decided to use the handy price check to double check and the price read: $ 12.99. I took pictures of the price tag (as evidence) and decided to fight them for price match. Their mistake is my gain right? The girl at the register didn’t even blink an eye when I told her that the price is $ 10.99. I offered to show a picture, but she said she didn’t need it. Overall, great experience.
If you like SummerShandy head on over before they correct their mistake ;)

This Target is awesome!
I have another one nearby but would rather drive here instead. All targets are pretty good, but this one seems super new, very clean and brightly lit. The employees are friendly and actualy sometimes ask to make sure we’re finding everything. If I don’t, there’s plenty of workers stocking the aisles are very helpful.
So I do my shopping here, and if I need to return something, I can just swing by the one closer to me.

Although everyone seems to rave about the prices at Walmart, I definitely prefer Target. Target is much closer to where I live, but I would probably drive even if Walmart was closer. Target is much cleaner and more organized than Walmart and the staff is attentive and usually knows where things are. I rarely have been there when they were out of what I need.

Target, you have lost my business. Not a big fan anyway, but I needed to get a pain prescription filled after having dental surgery and so I was eager to get in and out fast and pick up a couple grocery items. First, the pharmacy was insisting that I should have my pharmacy card, which of course I don’t need since I have their Red debit card. Wasting time over this one, and starting to feel the novacaine wearing off. They told me I should have received a card in the mail, NO! Every time I go to the pharmacy they have different staff in there, but I would have thought the pharmacist (who is a regular) knew this. Problem with filling meds there in the past too, as my doctor wrote the script wrong when they faxed over. When I was checking on the status, and the pharmacist told me he thought it was odd that the script was for the dosage stated. I would have hoped that the pharmacist would have contacted the doctor, not just fill wrong! Good thing I realize that no one takes one pill a day for antibiotics! I have an issue with my doctor too now, but that is a different story…
And I bought a few things since I had my the 5% extra card, so I went to have them rung up at a cashier. I was amazed that they put a deaf-​mute lady as a cashier! She can’t talk to explain anything or converse with the customers! I had to talk to the cashier in the other line, as my cashier was convinced that my 5% card was not working, that I needed to use it «next time». The other cashier told her to run it, and it did go through, obviously. Why would Target management place someone in a position where they are going to have a lot of customer interaction and will not be able to do so… unbelievable.
I stopped to look at the yogurt and right away, some stocking clerk asks me if I need help. No, I am just shopping! I hate stores where if you are standing looking at the products, they ask you if you need help, no, I have a mouth, if I need help I will ask, however, what is so frustrating at Target when you do ask, no one even knows what you are talking about.
I didn’t want to spend anymore time in this store, but I wanted to confirm that I didn’t need a «pharmacy card» and there was a line in customer service so, I stopped to ask another cashier who didn’t have a customer about this, and he told me he didn’t know, he wasn’t an associate. What!!!

Clean, nicely lit, great selection and pretty good prices for many items. While I won’t buy EVERYTHING here, grocery-​wise, they do have good prices for Chobani yogurt, which is my favorite. It usually costs a dime less than at my usual grocery store. And with my Target Card, I save 5% on my purchases… not a lot, but every bit helps these days.
The staff is pretty friendly and helpful. And when they have a sale or promotion on a certain item, I’ll stock up here. Cat litter can be pricey at times, but they often have a sale where if you buy two, you’ll get a gift card. Nice deal.
The return policy here is pretty good too, I’ve never had a problem getting a gift card credit for something I didn’t like. One time, I bought an expired food product, but returned it the next day and they cheerfully gave me a refund, and an apology for not keeping a better eye on their time sensitive inventory.
I like Target. It’s my preferred general retail store.

I strode through the front doors the other day and happened to spy a rare treasure on the cheap racks right across from the electronics section – 11 oz bags of Stauffer’s animal crackers (the only good brand) for only a buck. My first thought was, «Hell yes – Stauffer’s animal crackers for a dollar!» (Is it sad that this was the best moment of my day?) My second thought was «I gotta bump these guys up a star.» (Eh, even sadder, I know. Effing Unilocal.)
But it didn’t last long, as I spent the next six minutes trying to find the kitchen section. I did a 270-​degree circuit of the store because they rearranged the entire place AND I CAN’T FIND ANYFREAKINGTHING ANYMORE. Seriously, I’m a smart guy, but I staggered around that joint like I was just thawed out of 10,000-year-old ice.
This store is my usual Target thanks to its proximity to my office, so I find myself here once or twice a month. How long will it take me to learn the bewildering new floor plan? What was the point of shuffling around three-​quarters of the departments? Who is responsible for this? To whom can I complain? Can I be compensated for my pain and suffering? Effing Target.
