Ever since I could drive, Target has been my go-to place for everything under the sun - makeup, shoes, a dress...you name it.

Now that I go to college in a small town, where all my shopping is limited to Walmart, the addiction has diminished. However, when I go home for the summer, my first stop is still always Target - here's why:

1. Their items are constantly changing.

While this is a good and bad thing, I love how I can walk into the store on any given day and find something new and exciting that catches my eye.

2. Their varieties of products.

It is pretty safe to say that everyone can find something that fits their taste within Target, which is super nice and convenient. You can also grab most everything on your list with one shop instead of having to go to multiple stores.

3. A clean environment.

Obviously, this can change based on your location, but in my experience, I simply find Target stores to be much cleaner than Walmart. Target employees are frequently seen straightening shelves and the floors are always clean and tidy.

4. Cartwheel.

I love how I can scan an item on my phone, and through the Cartwheel app, it will tell me if there are any coupons offered and related products that may be on sale. It makes it very easy to save a few bucks and is easy enough to navigate.

5. Accessories.

Hands down, Target has the best accessories. I mean their purses and wallets are beautiful and sturdy (and sometimes even resemble brands like Kate Spade or Marc Jacobs), they have a good selection of jewelry and sunglasses - again, everyone can find something that fits their style and preferences.

Overall, as I've grown into a young adult, Target has become a part of my everyday life. Whether I'm actively looking for something or just needing to walk around, it's my go-to.
