Target is the happy place of millions of women. I know Target sparked a lot of controversy this year, but I don't even care. I know a lot of people stopped shopping there because of their new policies and that's totally fine. More Target for me and less lines.
1. You often have dreams involving Target.
The most beautiful dreams do involve Target with lots of sales and no lines.
2. You own a lot of Target brand items.
There are a lot of Market Pantry food items in my house. It's actually somewhat ridiculous.
3. You look at the $1 section in the front of the store every single time you go in Target.
Um, yes, I do need 8 boxes of Junior Mints and I also need this 16 pack of bubbles. I can't believe anyone would even ask me if I actually needed those things.
4. You've probably considered that maybe you should just work there.
I mean red polos and khakis are looking better everyday. Plus some Targets even have a Starbucks or a Pizza Hut or both. What is there to lose honestly?
5. You don't mind spending just a little bit more at Target to avoid Walmart.
Walmart is the place of nightmares. Target is the place of dreams. If you don't believe me, please go to a Walmart in any small town in the South and you will immediately agree with me.
6. You go to Target for stress relief.
You don't even need to buy anything, and you don't actually spend money. Just being there is enough to make you happy for a little while when school or work is stressing you out.
7. When you are planning to buy things, you actually spend like $95 when you went for staples and dish soap.
Everything is so cute and useful and even if it's not you'll find something to do with it.
8. Your credit card statements are almost exclusively charges at Target.
Yeah, you're going to have find some money to pay this off as soon as possible. Maybe you should check your mail and a relative has sent you a gift card or something.
9. When you leave, you immediately regret buying so much stuff.
1) You regret it because that was too much money to spend and now you have to eat ramen for the next three weeks. 2) You have to carry all of this out of your car somehow.
10. Target CartWheel is the greatest friend that you will ever have.
Mobile coupons on the go. Yes, please!
11. All of your friends have been dragged to Target with you at some point.
It's good to bring moral support because maybe they'll convince you that you don't actually need a stroller that is on sale because you're 20, single af, and have no immediate plans for children.
12. Your closet is 90% Target clothing.
It's just so cute and cheap, but it's relatively well made. Just think of it as an investment for your future because you gotta look nice to impress people. You never know who is watching or who you'll meet.
13. You've basically seen every Target layout possible.
You know your way around Target like the back of your hand. Even if you've never been to that specific Target, you've probably been to one with the same exact floor layout.
14. You lurk around waiting for all of the highly priced throw pillows and kitchen gadgets to go to clearance.
If your parents ask why you bought an ice cream maker, then yes, you will start eating ice cream despite being lactose intolerant. It's totally fine.
15. You thought Alex from Target was cute, but Kristen Wiig's Target Lady is forever the greatest Target employee.
Everyone knows the Target Lady is the best. Alex from Target could learn a lot from her.
