Target

Why 4 stars for a Target store? Well, I hadn’t been to this one for quite a while, so I was super-​surprised by how clean, neat and tidy it was after being spruced up!
It is quite impressive when a self-​confessed ‘cheap’ store makes the effort to renovate so it doesn’t actually *look* so cheap — and this one looks great. Very easy to navigate and well signed (I could see where the fitting rooms were easily — unlike other department stores).
I do think they needed more staff on the registers during the lunchtime peak period, but the line still moved pretty quickly. I felt like I was in a bank, with the big screens telling us that ‘register 6 is free’ — bizarre, but still impressive ;)

I wish target wouldn’t stock those ugly cotton boxer things that my partner insists on buying, no one else sells them — there’s A REASON for that.
Target used to be fairly affordable, I suppose it still is, but in a way, it really isn’t. Remember those adds on TV that said the kids clothing is «kidproof» it isn’t. I don’t seem to ever buy anything from here, its kind of cluttered and the quality of stock is pretty underwhelming if you ask me…
it’s not the store itself that is bad, its the brand, Target you have rolled down the hill, there’s a lake at the bottom and you can’t swim and no one is throwing you a floaty.
Big store, everything you need, and yet so unsatisfying.

This has got to be the worst Target store I have ever been to. It has nothing! Really, really, nothing! Normally the Targets I go to are over flowing with stock, but this one just seems down right empty every time I go into it. I don’t know what it is, and I couldn’t care less, I just know there’s no point in going in here.

I actually really enjoy this Target, or as my Dad calls it «Tar-​jeeeey». It’s bigger than most around my part of town and it’s got a bigger range of gear, especially clothing.
I mainly come here for affordable clothing, mostly basics but occasionally some of the dresses take my fancy. Oh and the business wear is pretty good, cute blouses, different skirt shapes and pants galore. Their youthful Free Fusion range is actually pretty damn good, with up-​to-​date fashion styles, colours and patterns.
The top level is a woman’s heaven, with clothing, shoes, underwear, the lot. And then their’s downstairs, which isn’t my favourite. Everything else is crammed in here and it’s a bit of a jungle.

I agree with Rachel, this Target really doesn’t have a whole lot compared to others. It may be very conveniently located but then I’d rather drive to a different one.
The biggest section would be women’s clothes but I think it’s terribly organised in terms of where what is and there’s just an overflow of stuff everywhere. It’s not very pleasant to look at, nor does it make browsing for something easy at all. The same can be said for the shoe aisles.
Downstairs is a mix of everything, some men’s clothes, some kitchen appliances, a few homewares, a little bit of make up. very limited in choice though if you compare it to other Target stores. And just too crammed.

Being a poor student who spends too much money at The Exeter every weekend, I do a good bit of my shopping at Target, and I have no big complaints.
It’s a big, cheap department store with pretty much anything you could expect them to have. I like it better than Myer or David Jones because its totally unpretentious and there really are bargains everywhere. This is the place to come for post holiday sales as their stock is seemingly inexhaustable. Tell you what, the prices I’ve seen on beach towels and socks here would blow your mind.
Dunlop Volleys are also here in abundance, and cheaper than anywhere else I’ve seen in town. Damn they’re great shoes.

What differentiates this Target from all the others? Pretty much nothing. Dindo is spot-​on about the service. But service costs money, which means bigger price tags, which means more expensive budgie-​smugglers and bog-​catchers, and we can’t have that!
If you need help when you’re shopping for something, just, well, just don’t even bother coming here. You probably won’t get it. But there aren’t too many things that you’ll really need help with.
And the cheap jocks and socks are pretty awesome. Hell, some of the jeans that they sell here are less than a tenth the price of some shops, and while they’re not particularly fashionable, they’re comfortable, hard wearing and they get the job done. Did I mention that they were cheap?

«Forget» almost rhymes with «Target».
Can you serve me? When all your children grow up and leave for University, will you adopt me as your new child?
If the answer is no to the above, I will forget you Target.
Just joking, I did remember something about you. You have a generous sale for underwear. But you have non-​existent service. I don’t see anyone around that can help me. So I may not forget you, after all. I like your website though.
Facts: The Target story began in 1926 when two men George Lindsay and Alex McKenzie opened a drapery store in Geelong, Victoria, Australia, after signing a partnership the previous year. The store primarily sold dress fabrics, manchester and furnishings.
Target now offers customers a range of: fashionable women’s, men’s and children’s clothing, underwear, footwear, cosmetics, fragrances, and accessories; the latest designs in homewares, including manchester, bed linen, electrical appliances and décor; and a full range of toys, games and entertainment — all under one roof!
So you better be quick! Remember: their underwear won’t last forever.
