Heaven, a time-sucking vortex, a money-sucking pit, the motherland: whatever you may call it we all know it by the holy name of Target. It is by far the best store in existence. If you don't know that, then you've clearly never been! Have no fear though, I will share the wonders that lay behind those red doors with you right now.
1. The Toy Section
Yes, I am 20 years old and this is my first reason for loving Target, but it's true. You can ride a bike down an aisle, bounce a SkyBall to hit the ceiling tiles, play with push vacuums meant for ages 2+ and more! Judge all you want but it's the most fun you'll have on a week day night with friends and a better way to let go than alcohol ever will be. Not to mention, it's all gender neutral and the aisles are divided by "girl toys" and "boy toys" ; Rock on Target.
2. You Can Buy Cute Pajamas and A Pineapple
How many places do you know of that you can buy cute clothing (such as monkey feetie pajamas) while also quality grocery shopping? There's not many.
3. Pillow Fort.
This children themed interior design line is, in all honesty, the BEST thing to happen to Target. I personally own the flamingo sheets for my full size bed because I'm just a full size child. If they ever create this bedding in Twin XL sizes, you can bet Target will get all of my back to college shopping money. Oh, there's also a unicorn lamp which is just magical.
4. The Dollar Spot
Oh, you spent $30 at the dollar section too? Cool, glad I'm not alone.
5. The Commercials
If you're like me and actually pay attention to commercials: then you've noticed Target has some of the best out there. Not only are they oozing with diversity but the creativity these writers and producers have is amazing. There's yet to be a Target commercial I do not love.
6. It's Reasonably Priced
Quality things without breaking my bank? Thank you, Target.
7. There's Something for Everyone
From toys, to clothing, to electronics and DVDs, to grocery shopping, to school supplies and so much more in between. Every member of your family, college squad, and book club can be please with a Target trip.
8. You Can One-Stop Shop for Your Entire Home
From inside to out: Target has it all. Furniture, rugs, end tables, lamps, throw pillows and blankets, ottomans, storage baskets, frames and curtains. Why go anywhere else when you don't have to? Everything is cute, easy to assemble and affordable.
9. Starbucks is inside
Does this bonus even have to be explained?
10. Every Employee is "Jake from State Farm"
If you didn't already love Target, then I hope this article has given you some good incentive to try it out. For those who are just as obsessed as I am, I hope you could relate and also had some, "oh my god it's so true!" Moments!
