Target stores are nationwide department stores which sell clothing, shoes, jewelry, health and beauty products, electronics, CD and DVDs, bedding, kitchen items, sporting goods, toys, pet food, automotive supplies and hardware. They also carry seasonal merchandise such as patio furniture during the summer and a large selection of decorations for every budget at Christmas. Tyler Target also has a pharmacy and a photo center.

As you enter Target the first thing that hits you is the delicious smell of popcorn. There is a small café on the right of the store as you enter. On the left is a budget area where you can buy seasonal items like toys and party favors for a dollar. Once you pass this you are entering the clothing department. The fashions are low priced and subsequently, low quality, but are still very popular. The lingerie and sports wear include brand names and are reasonably priced. Target also stocks quite a selection of bags and accessories plus some jewelry.

The housewares and home décor sold by Target are much more attractive than those sold at Walmart. Their team of designers are brilliant at making the ordinary look cool and contemporary. There is an extensive toy and game department and well-stocked baby section. Target is a favorite for baby and wedding gift registries.  You can print registry lists on dedicated red computers just inside the door.

The food sold at Target is limited but they do have their own brand of foodstuffs called Archers Farm which are great quality and in general, of high nutritional value. They have regular discounts on these items and details of these and other offers can be found in their weekly circular newspaper. In addition Target have their own brand of toiletries and household consumables – now called ‘Up and up’ (look for the white labels with arrows) – they claim to compare to the best selling brands and are usually at least 10% cheaper. Look for orange colored price labels throughout the store for clearance prices.

Finally, Target has a selection of cards and party goods for all occasions at a range of prices, and a photo center near the exit. If you use an internet service like Shutterfly you can order prints online and pick them up at Target.

One negative thing about Target is their return policy. They are only required to take things back with a receipt – even if the item is labelled as a Target exclusive. The moral of the story is that you should always keep your receipts and ask for a gift receipt if you are buying presents for someone else.

Target.com is a good place to look for bargains and they have things that are not always available in store. However, you need to watch for shipping costs – there is no ‘site to store’ free shipping which is such a bonus at Walmart.com.

Target sells such a wide variety of goods that they are the biggest seller of giftcards in the USA. We bought some for our nephews and nieces at Christmas and were impressed to find cards that light up and sing for the recipients! They are always well received…
