MERRY CHRISTMAS INDEED!
So, that breakup with Target last week might have been was PMS rearing it's ugly head.
The best part EVAR? i got 6 zhu zhu pets in one transaction at walmart today. some walmarts are still limiting them to 1 per person per day. but i bucked the system and did the self check out. hahaha!
So, eat that target! YOUR LIMITS CAN KISS MY @$$ !
I TRIUMPHED!
i beat the system, still got what i needed and did it at a competitors store! HALLELUJAH! MERRY CHRISTMAS INDEED!
here was what i wrote the day after the break up...
some excellent ideas were brought up to get around "the system". and yet, there are reasons it wouldn't work for me that day.
I'll list them for you-
- i was pressed for time. i won't say exactly how pressed but, to say Paxton was the babysitter of the car, you can imagine.
- i had already tried to check out with them so how do i say, OH, well let me just take these back there and hide them in the underwear rack until i can check out with the limit and go to the car and then come back in, retrieve them and then buy them again.
- i really didn't think they would say tough luck. call me naive.
my fit was more about the fact that they don't value my regular/loyal customer designation.
and the fact that I'd been there no less than 4 times in 2 days never checking out for less than a hundred bucks, and a couple times for over $400+.
you'd think the location in the ghetto would really try to keep customers coming back vs. driving to a newer fancier target. I'm centrally located, i could just as easily go to Tempe marketplace. or at least 4 different walmarts located equally close to me.
i reserve the right to renew my acquaintance with target, but it won't happen soon, and it WILL NOT be at that location.
will i be returning my holiday stash to prove my point? probably not unless i get a sudden burst of energy. mostly because it wouldn't matter to target, what do they care? they wouldn't, the manager would probably never know. and i don't need the stress. and drama of taking it back and throwing a fit just to prove a point, plus it's not like they can do anything to fix it. they can't.
plus like i said, it was probably PMS. and that's what i get for jumping on the zhu zhu pet bandwagon anyway. sure my kids might dig on them but in reality they are SHIZ and i don't need more crap laying around here. so0 there we are. no one asked for one. and we don't need them. let some mom desperate to get one for her kid, that specifically requested that as their santa item, have it.
but again i flip target the double ugly rolling BIRD! at least the one at gilbert and southern in MESA. they are officially blacklisted from my shopping route FOREVER! along with best buy for not honoring an extended warranty, and the Home Depot at Dobson riverview for having the CRAPPIEST SERVICE EVER!

I have learned a lot.
1-It is not just me that doesn't like the Ghetto Target.
2-We are now cycling together. Not fun.
3-Don't piss you off.
I think you just LIKE, make that LOVE flipping the bird. hee hee.
that is the Tarjay i end up at too. because it's the closest. walmart is even closer tho and i end up there more often because of grocery items. but i don't shop produce at walmart (that is a whole nother story)
i wish PMS did not exist just like i wish there was no such thing as sinuses.
Okay so I thought I'd switch shopping from Walmart to Target, especially AFTER getting cursed out AND flipped off IN FRONT of my kids just for having one of them hold a spot in line for me, but now, I don't think so...
I've had my share of problems with Target as well, most notably the return counter.
Couple that with the fact that when my son split his head open in Target and was bleeding like a stuffed pig (head wounds, gotta love 'em), NOT ONE employee came to help, customers yes, employee's, no!! And don't get me started on the rent-a-cops they have there!
So yes, even though I was verbally assaulted in a Walmart, this post makes me appreciate that the employees and checkers, even though scarce on the floor, seemingly still value their customers (and FYI, I have RARELY~even during black Friday shoppping~been kept to an "item limit" in Walmart)!
Happy Christmas Eve!!
First of all...so happy you got your hamsters. Second of all....Target has the WORST customer service of any store, however, I can't stop shopping there. I swear they are piping drugs through the ventilation system to keep us coming back. Good luck with everything today!
OH I hate that particular Target! Now that I am in Gilbert I like my Super Targets!
I went in today to my Target and hid all the things i want to buy the day after Christmas, YES i did! I want it, and by darn I am going to get it!
