Target

Tonight, my daughter and I went shopping at Target on Thomas Road. Our cashier, Richard F., was so friendly and helpful. He was patient with us and went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of. Thank you for a great shopping experience.

I had to show the ad to multiple people. The sale items is buried in the stock room none are on the sales floor. The other item is on the sales floor but not marketed with the sale price. I have been waiting 20 minutes for a manager to find them.

I’m so glad I don’t have to shop here on a regular basis. Horrible customer service. They treat you like crap. Seriously guys Amazon Prime. It’s less expensive and gets here in 2 days you don’t have deal with employees you are either in your way or treating you with a condescending attitude.

This is not one of Target’s better locations. My most recent experience was going to multiple locations for an on sale folding table. The one at this location was substantially damaged on one of corners. With a duck tape repair and placing a pad or something else on top it would no longer appear damaged an shopworn.
The treatment at their so called customer service counter I personally found unprofessional and wanting. My experience with Target spans roughly four decades.

This store is a disaster. Walk in and immediately find a dirty store with items scattered everywhere.
Target has been a long time love of mine, it’s such a fun story (normally!) and I spend a lot in store — or did until the whole credit card debacle. Anyway back to this store…
A guy is standing behind the registers wearing a dirty red polo shirt with tons of stains on it.
Pick up a bunch of fun stuff in my cart. I do love Target.
Walk to dressing room area to find it abandoned. A female employee walks over followed by a male employee named Gideon. She asks if he followed her over there and he says yes to stare at her butt (red flag #1). Gideon looks like a 16 year old Bieber. He walks behind dressing room counter to continue flirting.
After the woman checks the number of items I have and starts talking me back he says I can’t try on underwear. I let him know I will follow the policy and do so over clothing. He says its against their rules (he DOESN’T work in this part of the store). I tell him I just got some a few months ago and bathing suits are the same policy.
He says what store was it at — not here buddy! I am thinking — what’s wrong with this kid? He says its flat out not allowed so I asked him if this was a new policy and he says its always been like that.
Not fighting with him so I leave and as I am walking out I ask for a manager to check their policy. The guy, in the dirty red polo, just stands there with a blank face for a few minutes. Says nothing. It’s so strange!
During this time I noticed other people having issues and was all whatever time to leave (though normally love Target — it’s my guilty pleasure!). Anyway guy decided to go awol on me and doesn’t apologize or say sorry the first guy was wrong (which he was). Dirty shirt guy is only bothered that I pointed out something wrong in his store. He won’t chat with me, won’t share his name and just tells me to talk to his manager who isn’t there.
So some nice guys working nearby come over and say his name is David and they don’t know why he is being so rude. But they were clearly sorry. Even more so when they realize I am a mom as my little guy and family walk over.
They tell me dirty polo shirt guy is named Dave and is not very nice. After chatting with them Dave decides to make up that I used a curse word at him (!!!) and comes over to confront me — it’s really time to leave.
I would avoid this store like the plague. As many customers pointed out its dirty, several employees are standing around doing nothing and apparently it’s okay to be rude to customers, make up policies, not apologize and then make stuff up about them. What?!

Your review helps others learn about great local businesses.
With my experience at Target, it has been just okay. Compared to other targets, I find that this location could improve on their cleanliness, and customer service. Today, I had been agitated that all the shoes were completely unorganized, scrambled and messed with, while no associate was there to organize the stock which made it harder for me to find what I was looking for, especially with shoes thrown on the floor in addition to that. Also, as I was waiting in line at Starbucks in a rush, I find it a little frustrating that nearly 10 employees were in the way of waiting for my drink, talking about their personal life. Whether or not they were on break, they should also be considerate of actual customers having somewhere to go and an agenda to attend to while they have the store to themselves for the day. Also, it does not look good for the store or company at that. I even had to say «excuse me» in a loud and uncomfortable tone because an associate did not hear me while he was standing right in front of the sugar and cream section for no reason other than he needed somewhere to stand by. Why they all decided to hoard by at a place that people need to get through, is beyond me. There were plenty of tables and rest areas they could have sat in. Instead, they caused an inconvenience for a shopper.
Please don’t review this business if you received a freebie for writing this review, or if you’re connected in any way to the owner or employees.

Disappointed at the tiny automotive section here, but appreciate that the checkout lines are typically reasonable and the cashiers are usually friendly.

The saying in our house is that we have to live within five miles from a Target and Costco and we’ll be OK. We’re fans. We use the Target Red Card and Cartwheel app shopping there. Target has been a staple in our house for years. When the economy turned south and they stopped selling the higher-​end stuff I was disappointed but understood. When the Garden Centers closed to be replaced by grocery departments I was disappointed, but adjusted. There seems to be a very slow effort underway to bring in some higher end stuff again, but there is much catching up to do. Lately however I have been extremely disappointed with their grocery department, not in selection but in the lack of pulling expired items from shelves. A few weeks ago I came home with three grocery items that had expired in 2014 (yep, last year). Didn’t learn and didn’t look last week. I came home with two expired items. So during today’s run we made an effort to look at all expiration dates of items we normally would purchase. Of the 20 items we looked at 5 were at least 30 days expired and three were to expire in 2 days (boxed stuff). That is not OK! Sadly this doesn’t seem to be contained to bad management at one store. Shopping trip 1 was at one Target (Tempe Marketplace), the other at a different (Indian Bend and Pima) and today’s at yet another (44^th and Thomas). Yep, there are 3 Targets within 5 miles of my house. I’ve scaled down my grocery shopping at the store and moved back to the neighborhood grocery store. If you do your grocery shopping at Target, check the expiration dates. For anything else, still not a bad place.

I go to Targets in different cities expecting to find something different or new. Nope. All Targets are exactly the same.

I bought some items on 06 – 13 with 2 gift cards and naturally covered the rest with my debit card. The next day, 06 – 14 I returned one item at the service desk and asked the team member Maria to refund the money on the debit card.
for 3 days I waited for the refund that didn’t show, then inspected the return receipt closer. To my surprise I found that dear Maria had credited one of the gift cards which the cashier on the 13^th not only confiscated but also disposed of– at least I hope she did… otherwise one would have to thing that some scam is going on where the cashier collects the gift cards in the hope that her partner at the service counter will credit to such cards and THEY get to spend the money…
upon my return to the store and me pointing out the mistake and seeking resolution– I was told she couldn’t ‘fix’ the problem and proceeded to call somewhere. I was given a case# and a phone# that only services online transactions. Upon returning home I had to call the store again– just to get the right phone#…
After wasting about 2 hours on this instead of sleeping– I now also get to hope for a call back from somebody, sometime– because nobody can or will give a definite time to expect the call.
the saga continues and I’m not hopeful to have this issue resolved before Christmas.
Wish I could give NO STARS, or NEGATIVE STARS.

I would give this Target negative stars if I could.
First, it’s disgusting. I’ve come in a few times over the last few months (because it’s close to my in laws house) and it’s always the same. Today, my 5 year old commented on how dirty it is. MY FIVE YEAR OLD SON, who plays in the dirt daily, who doesn’t always shower, and sweats like a mother, commented how icky this place was. T
Do they never clean the bathrooms or wipe down the tables? It’s honestly barf inducing.
The employees are rude. I’m 35 weeks pregnant so yes, I move a little slower while walking through the aisles. Getting on my ass and sighing loudly and repeatedly isn’t going to make me go faster.
I love Target. So much so that it’s usually a family outting of sorts. My husband and I get Starbucks, my son gets pizza, everyone wins. If it was legal to burn this place to the ground, I would do that too. The clientele is… interesting. The parking is terrible and very busy. Look out or you will get run over. The pizza my son got today was blue on top. Blue! The breadsticks I got had no seasoning. The coke was flat.
Today was such a bad experience, I had a complete crying meltdown while waiting for my husband to come rescue us. I honestly do not understand the good reviews for this place. Never again.

Completely unremarkable, average Target. Much cleaner and safer-​feeling than Walmart, with higher prices, better quality (mostly), and fewer items. Not as nice as some super Targets I’ve been to in Tucson, but 4 stars nonetheless.

This is the best Target! Okay, I only say that because it’s the closest one, but it’s not bad. The employees are friendly and helpful. In general, the store is well maintained and clean and if there’s an issue and you report it, they deal with it right away. I also think they do a good job of keeping plenty of staff on hand for when they are busiest. They could do a better job of making sure stock is fresh (in the grocery). We bought something that was expired, but we were able to exchange it without issue. Check expiration dates.
I will say that if you are vulnerable to crime (young, old, female, etc.), don’t go here late at night and always be aware of your surroundings. They have security, but I have had a few negative experiences from perverts to being accosted in the parking lot for rides/​money.

This is a very nice target. It is clean, inviting, and the staff is very nice and helpful. I do a lot of shopping here based on the cleanliness and atmosphere. I would recommend this target to anyone looking for a nice place to shop.

This Target is a bullseye!
I have always had a positive experience across the 50+ times I have been here!
Parking is easy, perusing the aisles with complimentary Wi-​Fi is a nice touch, and the checkout aisles are ran very efficiently. David appears to be one of the shift supervisors, and always displays a high level of professionalism and expertise. Well done!

What happened to Target’s product quality? I have never bought so much junk that breaks or is not of quality value. It used to be a good store. I just bought the Bissell SpotBot, which is not cheap, to clean my carpets. It is a joke – you’d be better off just using a spray can and sponge on a spot. Complete waste of money – I am returning it.

First off, my wife and I are ‘die hard’ Target fans, so it pains me a bit to write this review. I will be taking my business elsewhere after my experience tonight.
The intent of our visit to Target this evening was to buy a new grill. However, instead of leaving with a state of the art grilling machine, I left the store empty handed, with a bad attitude, and with a terrible taste in my mouth.
When we walked back to the area of the store where this Target displays their grills, the area was being remodeled for new products to be displayed. But there were a couple of nice grills out on display, one of which, I planned on purchasing for nearly $ 300.
I asked an employee for help and he mentioned «I don’t work that area» and he called someone over who would help, apparently. The gentleman came over, I asked him general questions about price and availability which he was unsure of both. I asked if I could purchase the floor model and he replied «we can’t sell the display model because of liability concerns.»
Why would you put products out on display that you can’t sell? I was going to spend $ 300 just like that… but this Target doesn’t need the additional revenue apparently.

Lines have been short, and like always, I find a consistant supply of good quality, everyday household supplies and new merchandise, depending on the season.
This particular store is layed out similarly like other Targets, and I really appreciate that, as it makes it easier to to get in and out, and on with my day.

Though I haven’t been much of a Target fan in the past that changed last night. My boyfriend and I attempted to shop at the Walmart down the road but felt uncomfortable from all of the loitering people. I didn’t feel safe so we decided to head up the road to Target for a heating pad and a broiler pan. When we arrived around 10:15 and I believe the store closed at 11:00. The parking lot was very bare which I was amazed by.
When we walked in the doors and began our search I realized that this Target also had a grocery section! This was news to me! I quickly peeked at some of the sale prices and some were good deals, other not so great. We asked a staff member who appeared to be very busy where we could find a heating pad and he was extremely nice and walked us over to where they are kept.
The store was so quiet I could hear my footsteps. I’m not sure how busy it is during the day but I enjoyed how slow it was last night. We were in and out in about 15 minutes. I plan on shopping at this Target in the future and avoiding the Walmart down the road all together even if some items cost a little more. Spending a little bit more money is worth safety to me!

It almost seems pointless to review a big box retail store, but I have issue with this location and how my items ring up. I will use yesterday as a short but accurate example:
I went to purchase a picture frame with my daughter. We bought this and 3 spontaneous purchases. The 3 additional purchases were frivolous and cheap, however it was the bright red SALE sign that attracted to me to these items. And, at the register, none of them rang up at the advertised sale price.
Supposedly the popcorn was on sale for $ 2.50. It rang up at the normal price of $ 3.29. The watermelon oreos, which everyone has claimed are gross but are surprisingly good, were on sale for $ 2.80, but rang up for $ 3. And lastly, I bought some sour patch flavored gum, on clearance at the register for 60-​cents, yet rang up for .99 cents.
YES, THEY DO HAVE SOUR PATCH FLAVORED GUM.
I didn’t say anything at the register because I am not going to hold up a line over an extra $ 1.29 total. Nor am I going to waste my time standing in customer service to embarrass myself over $ 1.29. But, the problem is that this is exactly what Target expects from us. They basically overcharge ALL OF US every time we shop there. Sure, in minimal amounts, but does that make it right?
It was Sunday so it is very conceivable that this particular store simply did not update their sale advertisements throughout the store and it’s more of an issue with location rather Target itself. Hence the Unilocal review.
Since they have sour patch flavored gum and watermelon oreos (and yes, I realize I have taste buds like a 6 year old), I will probably return anyway. Just be wary of the sale signs — they mean nothing.
