Honestly, I (a mom of two beautiful tiny gremlins) only ever shopped at Target for non-grocery items until a few months ago. I had other go-to's I felt were nicer to my bank account lol I think maybe back in college, I saw a few items I thought were overpriced, so I assumed it all was. My little sister, also a mom of two and major penny pincher (I say that with the utmost admiration) informed me she ONLY shops at Target. I was baffled. We then went shopping together so I could get a closer look at some of the exact items I would otherwise purchase elsewhere. It was amazing!!! I can definitely say the only times in the last few months I've shopped elsewhere was when I was crunched for time and couldn't drive the distance.
A few reasons I'm obsessed:
1- Target has the BEST sliced corned beef in their deli! Tonight was my first time trying it, and it's honestly what inspired me to write this review. I've never reviewed a grocery store until now lol
2- Target has Starbucks! and
3- sushi! I started a tradition with my daughter when she was experiencing jealousy after her little brother arrived. I want her to feel special, valued, and loved. When we go to the store, we pick out a tray of sushi and pay for it at Starbucks. Then we order a refreshing iced tea to share :) and we enjoy our treat while we shop. She absolutely loves it! As do I!
4-Target carries a LOT of products other places don't. Before kids, or even with just one, I didn't mind so much going to multiple places to find everything I needed, but now it's twice the hassle. It's nice to be able to get it all in one trip!
5-Target accepts WIC! This was a major deciding factor for shopping around, because the stores that
accept it don't always have what we need for our allergies and food sensitivities.
7-Shoppers receive discounts for bringing bags from home! And lastly,
8-Target Circle! If I have to buy groceries any way, why not earn points while I'm at it? Points are converted into cash benefits. For example, my last trip to the store was about $5 off. It's not a lot, sure, but it's more than what other stores are doing. I love and appreciate it :)
