9 Reasons Why I Love Target

Target is a magically place, as some may say. Others may call it a trap to spend all your money. I tend to agree to both, but Target is my happy place and I'd go every day if I could. As I was drawing a blank on what to write about this week, I realized "why don't I write about Target?" So, here I am, and I'm going to tell you a few reasons why I love it.

1. Target calls their shoppers "guests."

This may not seem like a big deal, but it actually makes me feel more invited and welcome to shop at Target. It makes the shopping experience more personal and inviting. It gives you a warm, fuzzy feeling as soon as you walk in the door.

2. Their mascot is a dog.

WHO DOESN'T LOVE CUTE DOGS? CRAZY PEOPLE. I love dogs, so naturally the cute little white dog with the red ring about his eye, named BULLSEYE, why would you not fall in love with the little stinker?? JUST LOOK AT HIM:

3. Cute products all the way down to the nitty gritty.

Target has adorable clothes for grown-ups and babies galore, but have you ever seen the rest of Target? There's cute everywhere. Cute house decor, cute shoes, cute tech gear, cute bedding, just cute everything. It actually hurts my heart just thinking about it.

4. There's a Pizza Hut and a Starbucks inside most Targets.

Although I'm not a huge fan of Pizza Hut except for their delicious bread sticks, I do love me some Starbucks. Nothing says shopping like a strawberry acai refresher in summer or a pumpkin spicelatte in the fall. Everyone has their favorite seasonal beverage from Starbucks that accompanies their shopping trip.

5. They're all about deals.

Target not only always has something adorable on clearance or sale, but they have an app called Cartwheel that's designed to help you save even more money at Target. They also have a section for items $1-$7, and if that's not saving, I don't know what is.

6. It's clean and professional.

Target is a stickler for store cleanliness, it's always clean. I've never had an issue with going into the bathroom at a Target either, because it's clean. Having a clean store is having a happy store, which makes shoppers happy.

7. Targets are everywhere.

There's always a Target near by, so never fear. Targets are popping up more frequently every where. There's three alone in Berks County, and they're all within reasonable distance.

8. There's everything inside.

Target can be a one-stop shop if you want it to. With Targets containing a pharmacy, a grocery section, and personal care needs, it has everything you'd ever need. Need a new pair of shoes, milk, and shampoo? Target has your back.

9. You never go to Target for just one thing.

Target is a trap, you never go for just ONE thing. You sit in the car, mentally prepared to only buy one item, until you're inside and side tracked by six different cute things on sale and an unnecessary item you definitely don't need, but you don't know if it'll be in stores for long.

If I haven't convinced you yet, you should just go for yourself. I love Target, and I highly suggest it to anyone.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
