All Targets are created equal. It doesn't matter if its a Super Target or a basic Target, they all create the same warm fuzzies on the inside. I'm not going to lie, there's an extra bonus, if the said Target has a Starbucks inside. There is nothing better than walking around the dollar spot with your venti iced caramel macchiato in hand. I'm not really sure when my Target obsession started, but when I walk past those big red balls and grab a cart, all of my sadness, anxiety, and stress melt away. I am not really a shopper, I hate walking around big malls, my legs get tired and I get bored way too easily. However when those beautiful Target doors open I become a shopper because Target has everything and I mean everything that I could possibly need.
I go to Target at least once a week and each time, I find something that I need. I may go in with the intention of buying shampoo and conditioner, but I guarantee I will walk out with a new bottle of nail polish, new swim suit, and at least five items from the dollar spot. My entire wardrobe is now compiled of rompers, sundresses, and fancy shorts from Target, because why go anywhere else?
If you need to get a gift Target is the perfect place to go! You can put together an entire gift bag worth of amazing stuff right in the dollar spot. Then as you progress through the store you can get a funny coffee mug, an adult coloring book, or even a really cool wine tumbler. I promise you that if Target is done right, it will look like the most put together gift you've ever given and people might actually think you have your stuff together.
The beautiful thing about Super Targets is that you can go and tell everyone that you are going to be grocery shopping, when really you are just casually walking around your happy place. However, of course, you are going to pick up some Market Pantry cheese squares and some Archer Farms mixes along the way so that you can prove you were actually grocery shopping.
Now let's talk about their home goods section. Every single time I step into this section I contemplate redoing my apartment or my bedroom. This is the most dangerous section of the store because in about 10 minutes I'm contemplating buying seashell pillows, a new blue comforter, and a gold pineapple candle, and thinking about transforming my room into something new.
However, my favorite section is definitely the office supply section. I get immense satisfaction from picking out a new Sky Blue planner and gel pens so that I can better schedule my trips to Target. I get overjoyed when the school supplies go out, and go crazy over picking matching notebooks, folders, and pencils for my next semester.
I must confess that I am true Target shopaholic, and I don't foresee it ending anytime soon. So this is for all you people out there who are addicted to Target and are willing and ready to accept it. Go to Target now and shop that dollar spot, pretend to go grocery shopping, or pick out a new swimsuit, feed that Target addiction and have zero shame about it!
