For those of you who shop at Target, what are your favorites?
I work there. We have a brand called A New Day. Every time I see it, I think the words: “It’s a New Day. yes it is” plays in my head.

Worked there for three years. Funny story, I worked at a new Super Target that was just opening. So we're were pretty much stocked, mostly. I worked in dairy/freezer area. We only had Market Pantry brand coffee creamer in stock when opened. About second day of being open, this "lady" came over to me and my supervisor complaining how come we only had store brand creamers and not name brands (like Coffee Mate, etc) and she said everyday she comes in we never have any in stock. And we're like "we've only been open 2 days!" She just kept complaining. My first ever actual meeting with a Karen

I like the trail mixes. Sweet Cajun, Mexican Street Corn and Korean BBQ are all really good.

I think the only brand I enthusiastically gravitate towards is the Cat & Jack kids clothes.
Everything else at least meets some sort of minimum standard, I'd never second guess buying it because it was a Target store brand.
Unless it is something like Oreos where store brands just aren't right.

When I was a people greeter at the store, I had to welcome customers by saying: “Welcome to Target and mention a specific item that is for sale.” A lot of times, I would yell it because of all the commotion that is going on in the store like the barista at Starbucks working the barista machine.
When it’s thunder and/or lightning out, we are not allowed to go outside to help out customers unless it’s an extreme situation. Collecting carts obviously isn’t an extreme situation most of the time. One time it was thundering out and we were suffering due to a lack of carts. The shopping cart spaces in the parking lot were overflowing. I had to tell customers that we can’t get more carts in due to lightning in the area. It’s a safety issue. One customer understood. One customer didn’t. She said that the carts overflowing out there now was a safety issue and said that maybe I should be out there. I was like “Whatever ma’am.” The last time I checked, you can be killed by a bolt of lightning. You can’t be killed by ramming into shopping carts and/or getting hit by them unless you are very weak. I told my manager about this for kicks and he brushed it off. That lady really didn’t sound smart in this situation.
