Target

This store is clean, and generally well stocked, but it still just seems blah. Maybe I spend too much time there. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right? I guess when you go from browsing for clothes and makeup to sprinting around the store to get diapers and cat food before the kids have a meltdown, your feelings change. See! Kids do change everything!
The parking lot is pretty whatever. If I have to park anywhere but the center aisle I get annoyed — so shoot me, I’ve got two gremlins and I hate hauling them out to the boonies of a busy parking lot.
I HATE that they NEVER ask you if you have cartwheel. By the time I get the cart unloaded, keep the baby from climbing out of the cart and onto the conveyer to chase down whatever snacks I’m purchasing, and telling the big one that he can’t have popcorn and a slurped, it’s time to pay and I’m so flustered from the 5 minute transaction that I completely forget my coupons. Inevitably I get out to the car, unload the cart, load the kids in and BAM! it hits me that I just left $$ behind by forgetting to use my cartwheel.

This location has really gone to hell in the last couple years. Its a mess, dirty, unorganized & understaffed. Today there was 3 registers open with lines going back into the aisles. Customer service is horrible. I won’t be back to this location.

Don’t do their pick-​up order online. I ordered my items around 1130ish am and it’s now 522pm and still waiting, even though, it stated it would be ready within 2 hours. I even called to check for status and nothing. The girl just stated they were busy. THEN why say «with 2 hours»!!! Ugh. I love target, but dang, I am disappointed. I am never the type to do reviews, but just had to. They need to fix the problem on stating a more accurate time. They need a new system!

For the love of God, please embrace this concept known as «fast lane» for we shoppers buying one or two items. Otherwise I seem to always be in line behind the undocumented Octamom buying enough supplies to survive a nuclear winter and trying to pay with a 3^rd party out-​of-​state-​check.

It’s not as busy as you would think with a nearby Walmart right around the corner. They finally built a Starbucks inside where customer service used to be at. Every time I’ve gone into this location, the employees seem to be pretty helpful and courteous.

I don’t mind this Target except there are never enough checkout lanes open and no one seems to know they can wait in line for checkout stations in front of the others.
This place is generally pretty clean and usually stocked well. If you have to go, try to head there early in the morning or right before they close.

My most recent visit was to return my ps4 along with some games. The return took way longer than expected, which I was okay with since there was no line and there was no rush. However, what lead me to write this review is the fact is that the clerk continously tried to persuade me that his process of returning the item where I would get LESS than I paid was MOST DEFINITELY the right way. He tried to convince me that my return amount that was $ 40 less was right, but I had to tell him every time that it doesn’t make sense. Eventually, I think he saw the problem, but instead of apologizing, he became even more rude and got hella sassy. So watch out when you are returning items that were on sale or had a deal going on. I’m not saying all of the return kiosk workers are gonna be like that, but there is someone who is.

Out of all of the MANY many many Targets that I’ve been to, this is THE ABSOLUTE WORST.
My trips to this Target are usually quick. I run in and grab the items I need, pay, and go on my way. WARNING: the shelves are always EMPTY and if they have anything in stock, it’s messy and/​or dusty. Items are disorganized. The $ 1 and $ 3 spots are ALWAYS empty. If there is anything there, they are all misplaced.
What’s even more disappointing is their staff. Most of them are UNhappy to help. If you use cartwheel or even one coupon (even if it’s their mobile coupon), their entire attitude changes as if you’re inconveniencing them. One employee told me it’s because «this store has the most couponers»… Umm still not my problem. A paying customer is a customer and I shouldn’t be treated differently because others have used coupons. If you even attempt to inquire about price matching (as I have done once), they get extremely peeved as if you are attempting to rob them or something.
A huge NEGATIVE is this one joke of a «front section ‘leader’» (or «supervisor») named Miat (misp.?) who is ALWAYS EXTREMELY RUDE and UNpleasant to encounter. Even if you are just asking a simple question, he speaks in a condescending tone and will try to add that he IS THE manager as if that makes his word gold… even if your question has NOTHING to do with him! Turns out he is NOT even a manager but I guess he likes to toot his own horn and gets a kick out of hearing himself claim he is someone of high authority. The times I have seen him, he doesn’t wear his name tag probably because he knows he has a poor attitude. It is extremely unfortunate that he has a leader position yet obviously lacks leadership qualities and knows nothing about customer interaction/​service.
There are maybe 1 – 2 employees at the most that are personable so I’ll at least acknowledge that.
There are days when I have to grab an item or two and this is the closest location but I would definitely advise others to avoid this Target location, if possible.

8 cashiers and customers being sent to café for check out. Ridiculous ! It’s a Saturday afternoon and the poor girl they had managing had no idea as to what to do. She looked ans sounded scared and obviously had chaos in her hands. I can’t imagine Christmas in here ! Very frustrating. To see, feel the experience of lack of management. I thought Target was better than Walmart !

The only reason I come to this Target is the location. The service usually sucks, they don’t stock near as much as most other Targets and there is no pharmacy. This store also does not like to price match. If you are planning on price matching head to Mission Valley. Management and customer service are much better.

This store is always clean and drama free. I don’t know why I don’t come here more! They recently added a Starbucks and changed around their customer service desk. There was no wait and the staff is very friendly and professional.

This is by far the worst Target I’ve ever been to. The shelves are never stocked and the customer service is well below par. None of the employees have any clue to what’s going on. It seems as if it’s everybody’s first day on the job. They can’t answer simple questions, they don’t have a knowledge of their products or where to find them. The checkout lines are always backed up. I wait on average 10 min to check out. There is always a problem with the system or user error. It amazes me how many questions the employees have at the register. The managers are either no where to be found or messing around not doing their job. It’s like they hire anyone off the street and never train them. Always a waste of time here.

Every time I come here (which is twice a week) the shoes are like this … Meaning no one ever cleans them up

Worst customer service of any Target in the San Diego area. If you value your time, go the one at Grossmont Center or Mission Valley. The cashiers at this location are extremely slow and are not even apologetic if you are forced to wait in line for 13 minutes. WTF!
In addition, the store is always a mess. Merchandise, especially in the shoe department, constantly in the aisles. I guess this is more an indication of the type of patrons that frequent this Target location.

Not a fan of the new layout as they only had one Register for an exchange. My cashier was very friendly but will it be going back to this Target. Even the checkout lanes had 6+ people in line.

They used to do customer service at this location. Now they do an empty Starbucks.
What used to be a competent customer service desk has been replaced with two registers and not much intelligence.
Target very nearly went out of business when Amazon stole their lunch. I stayed loyal because they were smart enough to realize price matching was all that could save them.
Unfortunately, since they sold out customer service for Starbucks, they also appear to have hired special flowers who don’t grasp what Amazon is to staff their customer service half assery.
Apparently, «Prime Shipping Eligible» doesn’t mean free shipping is eligible to Prime members. The geniuses are certain it means special membership pricing.
As there are two types of products sold on Amazon: Those sold by a third party (not eligible for price matching) and those sold by Amazon (which, almost exclusively, means they are Prime Eligible), this means the characters at this store absolutely refuse to price match Amazon.
Fortunately, Amazon are offering same day delivery, more and more. I look forward to the giant Starbucks they’ll no doubt put in once their ruined customer service costs their last few customers.

Was excited to see a good amount of baby wearing mamas at this Target location.
We purchased the Fisher Price Rainforest jumper for our son here and I was happy to see a variety of jumpers to choose from. I would highly recommend checking their online prices because in store it was $ 100, online at
$ 89 but they price match at customer service.
Also, their employees are very nice, I tried to print from the registry kiosk and one of the terminals was down but a lovely employee helped me figure it out.
It’s out of our way, but if I’m in the area again I would go to this location.

Shopping for this and that today. Target has a good selection of most items from lotions and soap, to foods, small appliances, home deocorations, fashion and more.
The store appears to be clean and organized, the sales staff are friendly, cashiers are
efficient.
In most cases if I can not find a product at Walmart, Target will have it (ie. DVD’s) new releases.
Overall this is a nice store to shop for your everyday needs.

Seriously? It’s target. I’m pretty much a target fanatic. Wal Mart who?
I love everything about this store. I am lucky I guess to always get friendly cashiers. The managers have worked with me If I have coupons and returns are easy (if I ever have any). They DO price match which is always nice. I find myself coming way too often.
I only wish they had a Starbucks, but it’s just across the parking lot :)
I am a girl, and as such I like to look at the beauty section quite often. I do wish they stocked up a little more, usually when I look for particular items (that are popular in the makeup world), they are sold out :/​
But, nonetheless, my experiences here are always pretty good.

This Target is alright it’s close to a Starbucks and a Jamba Juice. I do go to Walmart sometimes and I can see a huge difference in the merchandise and the customers. Also this Target seems more put together and cleaner.
So this Target doesn’t have two stories like the one in Mission Valley but it’s still pretty good. They do have a small grocery section compared to Walmart but I still like Target better. The reason why I’m giving this Target 3 stars is because there’s nothing really special about it like it’s not a super Target.
When I’m in the area and need anything I go to Target even though I know Walmart may have the same thing for cheaper. The quality at Target is so much better and because of that I will continue to shop there.
