  • Target has revolutionized the entire shopping experience, from the width of the aisles and the weight of the shopping carts to the smell of Starbucks coffee and placement of dollar bins. The tactics are paying off. Despite the pandemic, profits rose more than 80% year over year. Here's how Target uses dollar bins and online sales to keep customers hooked.

    The main reason most people go to target is because they are fairly clean, organized, the employees are nice. And the products are of decent quality. Waaaaaaaaay better than walmart.

    • @rrdcreates
      @rrdcreates Před 3 lety +107

      While the organization and layout is awesome, the product quality is largely the same as Walmart. It’s the perceived value that makes the difference. The hanes tshirt at target is the same quality as Walmart - you just don’t have to step over items thrown around or half torn open packaging. They do have their own private label brands and special products, but don’t assume they’re any better than what would be the Walmart alternative - usually made in the same fashion, similar factories, etc.

      Walmart has a similar app, but like its store, it feels clunky. Target (app & store) on the other hand feels very fresh and clean. I also feel the same way about TJ Maxx and Bed, Bath, & Beyond. There's a certain aesthetic they have that is very easy on the eyes & feels very "comfy & pretty" -- the kind of aesthetic that existed long before Instagram came unto the scene.

      Their app is lightyears ahead of most retailer’s and theyre always working to improve it. Last year you had to covert Shipt fees with a credit card but before the pandemic it was switched so the delivery charges (including tips) will use Target cards as well. Just one huuuuge change that has made the app more user friendly. The store finder tho? That is some next level stuff other stores are still blundering through.

      As observed lately, interest in making a fortune from cryptocurrency keeps growing but a lot of people seem to delve in without a properly laid out strategy which is very important irrespective of your hodling or trading route. What is paramount to avoid losses is trying out several strategies and sticking to that which works for as long as it works and I came to this resolution when I stumbled upon some information about a crypto expert named Mr, mason and once I contacted him, he helped me develop a good technique and with his daily support using his trade strategies and tutorials, I have been doing pretty well as a trader from the market, making a minimum of 5 btc in profit for the last 3 months I have been using his system. A signal is extremely accurate and I intend sticking to his aid for as long as possible. He can be reached at Whatspp : *+17814864690* for all crypto-related inquiries.

I love the new designs for picnicware each summer, the autumn linens, the adorable Easter outfits for little children, the winter holiday themed throw pillows/socks/serving trays. I love the $1 bins and the $9 knit tops that I can pick up in several colors because I know which size will fit (though I wish they'd stayed with Merona; it took me a while to adjust to New Day or whatever it's called).

    Never shopped at Target before but now that I have a little one I'm hooked. Best place for baby stuff and washing detergent. They give you gift cards for shopping there. For example they have buy 2 cans of baby formula and you get a $10 gift card. If you buy $100 worth of pampers you get a $20 gift card....list goes on. I tell all the moms to check it out.

I will typically choose Target over Walmart though, because of the atmosphere. The Walmart where I live is chaotic and people there are pretty rude.

    Canada loves Target. We expected the store we went to on vacation. Target tried too hard to be Canadian and sold so many Canadian brands we could go to Walmart for. Also' they never had a grand opening but a soft opening with no hoopla. Hello we wanted balloons marching band. A' Target is here' atmosphere we never got. But the biggest problem was they hadn't figured out their supply chain properly and shelves were under stocked for months until it was too late and they announced the closure prematurely. My local store also never figured out the ordering right. The whole bottom floor was Halloween stock so a huge chunk of it ended at 90%.

    I will say that they their online pick up thing is one of the absolute best out there. Literally the first one that’s gone right for me. Ever. Over Walmart and regular grocery stores. So I’ll definitely keep doing that. It was so easy and such a relief that my order was completely correct. Super impressive!
    But I can ALWAYS walk in and out of Target and NOT buy extra. I must be the only woman in America who can do that. (I can’t do that in TJ Maxx, though, admittedly).
    That said, it is fun to just browse. Just being able to browse and not buy in
