Target

I love target!!! They have the greatest stuff and their prices are spot on! Not only is their stuff affordable it is stylish. The people that work there all seem to be friendly and helpful when you need it. The one thing that really impresses me is that they never let long lines form at the registers. As soon as there are more then 2 – 3 people waiting they will open up another one. That is a sign of good management. I am a target customer for life!

The store was neat and clean they had people to help you everywhere. My only complaint is that when I went to check out the cashier just waded up all the clothes I bought and shoved then in a bag. Even Walmart folds your clothes. I went as soon as the store opened there we no lines but they couldn’t even take the time to attempt to fold my clothes.

Great target location. Clean, stocked (except a few market items that tend to run low regularly), and great staff. I went in the other day with an extreme case of vertigo, looking for Dramamine but barely able to scan the shelves to find it I was so sick. A woman who worked there, but was off duty and shopping for herself, saw my struggle and offered to help me find what I was looking for. That’s above and beyond, and was sooo appreciated in that moment. Wish I had gotten her name to give her a shout out here!

This is a pretty nice location. Anything we have come to shop for has usually been in stock and the customer service is so so nice. Last time we visited we were looking for a specific Steelbook Bluray that we couldn’t find on the floor and one of the employees offered to help when we must have looked lost, and he ran to the back, grabbed what we were looking for and came to give it to us. Usually all the employees we come across are always asking if we need any help or if they can get us anything.
The grocery section is nice if you are at Target and forgot a few things or need some stuff for cooking/​baking. They don’t have much of a produce or meat section unless you’re in a hurry and don’t need a huge selection.
We recently have bought some furniture from here online to pick up from the store and that went pretty well overall. The employee working the customer service desk was the only employee around besides the one cashier. He phoned back to the back of the store and they brought our furniture out but they don’t allow you to take it out of the store by yourself if it is a «team lift.» (Which my husband could lift by himself, but I can understand the policy) When he phoned to the back again for them to help, they all said they were on break. Poor management obviously… who lets everyone besides like 3 employees go on break at once?
The employee (sorry i don’t know his name! He was very nice!) was super nice and grabbed another employee off the floor to help him get the item into our car. I really appreciate the fantastic customer service at this location.
Also, the Starbucks here seems to be pretty consistent. Of course it’s not anywhere near as good as the coffee from our local places downtown but it works if you need a quick pick me up before or after shopping.

My old reviews stand. Here is a quick rundown.
Not great:
–Poor selection of toddler items
–Poor selection of baby items
–Understocked kid clothing section
–Understocked bedding section
–Understocked baby items (diapers/​accessories) aisle
–This particular Target has one of the worst maternity sections I have seen in a long time. It is miniscule. There is no variety in styles or sizes. Everything is too large, even the smalls. Everything is way too long.
Okay:
–You can order online and pick up at the store
–They have self checkout
–All sales associates I have come across are helpful and polite

This is a pretty decent Target, guys. It’s funny reading the other reviews that say it is dingy. These people should come see the shitholes that are considered Target in Atlanta. It was actually peaceful and relaxing to go into a Target without seeing someone steal something or having someone try to start a fight with you over some trivial bullshit.
The cashiers were a little slow, but at least they could read.

It’s amazing to me the difference between this Target, and the one in Lacey. Compared to the other Target, this is almost as bad as Wal Mart.
It always seems to be weirdly hot and stuffy in here, and sort of dingey. The staff has always been pleasant to me, but I would much rather drive to Lacey to cruise around in the «nice» Target if I was in a meandering type of shopping mood.

I shop at this store every once in a while, but it’s not my preferred location. The layout is completely opposite of the locations I normally shop at, so it’s always a surprise when I first enter the store. It seems a bit more cluttered than other Target locations, and I think that factors in to my satisfaction of this store. I’ve never had any problems here, and the team members are friendly.
The thing I like best about this location is the fact that they offer self-​checkout. Out of all the Target locations in the Puget Sound area, this is the only one I’ve ever seen offer self-​checkout which is my preferred method. It seems like no matter which Target I go to, there are never enough cashiers open and there is always a line.
Another plus is the $ 0.05 recycled bag credit. I never use plastic bags and always bring my own. I like the fact that Target rewards their customers for their recyclable efforts by offering a $ 0.05 credit for each bag that you bring. It might not be a huge discount, but they’re one of the very few shops that actually offer it.

I get it that its easy to go here, where there is so much under one roof, but dear god it is so depressing! Every body looks miserable. There is a kind of film on everything, so that it feels dirty. The prices are low but the quality is crap. You will have to throw it away with in a year when it breaks. Don’t go here. Find a few places that are local that sell what you need and in the long run you will save money because you won’t have to rebuy it in a year.

I have caught them trying to sell expired infant formula 3x!!! I have talked to 2 «store managers» and nothing got done by either of them. Its disgusting and dangerous! The last time I noticed after I had told them about it, they even put it on sale! If you have ever had to use formula you know when you buy them they are typically good for at least a year, so its pretty bad they obviously havent worked their shelves recently.

Pretty standard Target. Always smells like popcorn and plastic when walking in the front door. Store has most items you could want at low prices. I’ll be back.

Close and convenient.

Where else is there to wander around aimlessly and cause shenanigans? I love Target, it always feels like you’re one of few people in the store because it’s so big. Lots of stuff to look at, clearance always worth checking out.

I don’t know why there are so many Target haters, but this target is actually one of the nicer ones I’ve been in. They just remodeled so they now have a grocery section, which has competitive prices. I recommend buying beer here because it is waaaay cheaper than anywhere else in Olympia. They have a smaller selection, but this is my go-​to place for Shock Top. Anyway, the store is huge, clean, and the people working there were pretty friendly. No complaints here!

Once I bought some fancy glasses invidiually. When I left the store, one of them got rung up as a set of dishes. WTF? So, I went back to store and big surprise, they thought I was pulling a scam. It really upset me that they thought I was lying and I mean in the tearful way, not the yelling way. The manager on duty claimed he’d have to review the security footage. Fine by me. Of course, he never called me back. So I went back in a few days and the manager on duty gave me my money back. I’m still a customer, I just pay attention to what is rung up.

I’m usually a huge fan of Target. Low prices and great selection, it not rocket science.
This particular day I went in with (3) items on my list. 1) contact solution 2) toothpaste and 3) wet wipes (travel size).
I walked in and located my items fairly quickly and made my way to the checkout counter. I was helped by a friendly and fairly competent sales associate.
It was your average Target experience, that is, until I got home. How is it that only two of my items made it into my bag? C’mon now! I mean it’s not like I was some crazy extreme coupon-​er with carts upon carts of stuff. I had three things! Sheesh.
I made a call to the store and spoke to one of the managers on duty and she advised me that my purchase would be at customer service waiting for me. When I asked her how it was possible that only two of my three items made it into the bag she told me it was a common occurrence. Really? Get it together Target.
I guess in the end it’s my fault for not checking my bag to make sure all the items made it in and I know the employee didn’t do it on purpose but it just goes to show that I should have trusted my gut and went to the newer Target in Lacey.
This fat girl will be back… but only to pick up her paid merchandise.

Come on, it’s Target! Low-​end prices for decent-​quality merchandise. Clearance tags that are occasionally near larcenous.
How do they stay in business while selling so cheaply? They try not to overstock (e.g. seasonal items) and you might have to rely on yourself to shop.
You know they aren’t that bad when their own detractors still go there! Easily one of my favorite retailers.

The rest of the store is ok, a little out dated. Last night the McFly behind the electronics counter was useless. I asked the snotty kid to look at a waterproof Kodak PlaySport (Water sports to do for the holiday weekend) I watched him pickup the wrong model, so I let him unpack a new box, to show me what it all came with. I was like are you sure this is water proof? He says no its not? Hello! McFly! So I asked him to look at the model I originally asked for. He brings out a purple one. I joked about Purple not matching my special eyes. They end up not having a non purple gadget for me. You know that vibe you get from people that don’t like the job they do? I’m going to follow that instinct for now. If you don’t or cannot do your job, then go home.

This store has so much trouble keeping the right things in stock.
Going in the summer, no chance they have an air conditioner or even a fan (they were out much before the rest of Western Washington).
Going the second week in December, they were almost completely out of Christmas lights. They were also out of ice scrapers.
I think they managed to keep Halloween candy in stock… somehow.
I still go here all the time, but sometimes you just say «Really???»

It was very difficult to find help, even more difficult than at other Target stores. Although, once found, the employees here were helpful and courteous.
Target’s prices as always are good but the selection is hit and miss, especially on seasonal stuff, and the quality is predictably low. What good are low prices if they don’t have what you want?
