Target

The target pharmacy is beyond professional. This is the only place I am willing to pick up my prescriptions. Their staff is not only friendly but willing to educate if needed.

Stopped by this Target location while I was vacationing in Salt Lake City late December with my husband.
We were looking for some toiletry items that we forgot to bring with us on our trip (don’t you hate it when you forget something while on vacation? D’oh!). But we were able to find our items (nail clipper, tweezers, etc), as the layout is similar to other Target stores.
This store was clean and check out was a breeze. The employee who helped us out was friendly.

This target very rarely has the selection of things that you are looking for. I don’t know if it’s the high volume of people who come here to shop that leaves the shelves empty or if it’s poor stocking practices, but you’ll hardly ever find what you’re looking for. Especially if it’s something that is popular. But I don’t know why I expected more from Target anyway.

Lately, this Target isn’t as good as it once was. It’s messy, their cosmetics area is always missing stuff, causing me another trip to another store, and recently, their systems were down. It caused my card (and many others’) to be declined at point of sale. They didn’t really have answers at customer service and slowly a line was clogging up from other frustrated customers. I called corporate and they too had no answers. One other time, I noticed the price on a book end was higher than what was tagged. Weird. Thinking about all the hard times Target has faced lately, I hope they’ll step it up because I, like many of you, love/​d shopping here.

This location is really well organized and the staff is always helpful and friendly. There is never a shortage of anything that I come in for. Whether I’m looking for a cute skirt or soup, there are options a plenty! I love that this location is next to Walmart, because I hate Walmart, and I can usually convince my boyfriend that we should go here instead (especially when the Starbucks is still open).

This is probably the saddest Target I’ve ever been to. It looks like Walmart used to look in the 90s. On appearance, it seems like entire sections of the store aren’t touched for days; barren shelves and junk-​strewn aisles. The groceries retain their exorbitant Target prices. Cashiers tend to sullenness. I come here for giant $ 1 Tootsie Rolls and Funco Mystery Walking Dead figures strictly.

My most visited Target location. They got a nice friendly staff. Products are always in stock and I know exactly where things I need are. So I am in out in no time. Love their electronics section as well as the bed and bath area. Very nice store.

Wow. Just wow. Do NOT shop their grocery section. I bought milk there and not even three days later it was moldy and chunky, even though the expiration date had a week more to go. Their cheese went moldy four days after I bought it. Their veggies lasted only three days of purchase before going sour. All these with at least a week or more before the expiration date. The worst is I went back to return the food and got a BRAND NEW gallon of milk. With an expiration date of 9.6.15 and as of yesterday morning, 8.31.15, it’s sour and moldy. Are you KIDDING ME! A man with blue balls lasts longer than Target’s food!

This Target is not that different from all the other ones you’ve been to. We came here killing time before we picked up my mother in law from the Airport. The place was clean. I used the bathrooms and I can say that they were nice and clean as well. As we walked around the aisles were in good order. I particularly liked that the place wasn’t that busy. I’ve been to Targets where you can’t even get your cart around because there are so many people. This one was fine. We found what we were looking for and paid for it quickly and got out. What more can you ask for?

As much as I love this store, I must admit I’m totally grossed out by their bathrooms & am surprised the health department hasn’t been called. I visit this store at least once a week & am totally grossed out & surprised every time I need to use the bathroom.

I use to love coming to this target and especially on the morning. Minus the Starbucks, that’s always been bad. But at least you could count on the Target employees bring nice. They’d at least smile and sometimes ask if you need any help. I’ve always been bugged by their morning meetings that take place in the middle of the aisles. but whatever. At least they were nice.
It’s gone majorly downhill in the last year or so. This is the first morning I’ve been there in awhile. I usually go to the Fort Union location. It’s further away but they’re nicer. Nearly every aisle had boxes strewn EVERYWHERE. Sometimes even blocking it so you couldn’t even walk down aisle. The grocery aisles had several people stocking he shelves so you really couldn’t go down those. Not to mention that if they looked at me, the employees would just look at me like my presence was frustrating. My one year old waved and said hi to nearly all of them and only one (out of at least 15 employees) even acknowledged him. How hard is it to at least give a smile?
Then there’s the starbucks. The girl that works in the mornings had always been rude. at least to me. I’m from the south, so maybe my standards are higher, I really don’t know. I don’t order from there anymore because my order is nearly always wrong. ⁹⁄₁₀ I’m given coffee in my double choc chip frapp and I just really dislike it. Anyway, this morning my little boy needed to eat so I wanted to sit in and feed him quickly. I asked if there were high chairs abs she grunted about them being in the back. They’re shoved in a back corner behind a bar and stacked. Shortly after we get settled there’s an intercom announcement about morning employees being able to take a break… Starbucks is now flooded with all the employees. Again, everyone but one person (security guard) ignored my little boy saying hi and waving. Mostly the Starbucks employee… Every time she walked by he tried to say hi and she just acted like he wasn’t there. She also warned everyone that some higher up (general manager or corporate, I’m assuming) was sitting in the parking lot watching them. She continued to tell several people they couldn’t come behind the counter and make their drink because this person was watching. Lastly, I would’ve put the high chair away, but there were too many target employees blocking where they were stored.
Come on, Target. You’re better than this. I’ve been shopping at locations in Utah, Texas and Louisiana for 12 years and I’ve never experienced so many unprofessional people. This makes WalMart seem appealing.
This was originally a one star rating… I’m adding one for the nice guys working in electronics this morning and the nice security guard.

It truly makes me sad how downhill this Target has gone! Although staff is very friendly and helpful I do not know how does management not see how gross the store has become! It is dirty and just reminds me of the Las Vegas Downtown Target and that was scary! I do not even live in Vegas, but went for an overnight trip and had to get mess meds, any way back to SLC Downtown Target, you could not pay me enough to use the restroom, buy something from the café! I feel so bad for the associates who have to share a restroom worn the customers :(!!! In addition Inventory is always dismal — I go to this location when I am downtown, but I always, always go to Fort Union!

This by far is one of the best Targets in Utah. Great location right near downtown. Friendly staff, fresh fruit, clean isle, what more can a targetholic ask for. Once I’m all finished shopping, I make it appoint to stop and grab a skinny hazelnut coffee from Starbucks located in the store.

Clean and bright location. Relatively new so you can expect it to be a pretty decent experience.
Staff is typically helpful and easy to find.
For what it’s worth, this is my go-​to for Black Friday every year.

As the reigning Dutchess of this Target location, I suppose I should share my thoughts about my kingdom already! First of all, let it be known that I need Target Rehab. Its a fact. Anyone that even slightly knows me, knows my love for this delightful store. Its like Disneyland for adults. Or at least THIS adult. Isn’t admitting you have a problem the first step? ;)
I make a LOT of trips to Target. Partially because I am terrible at getting everything I need in one trip. I usually make a list, but if said «list» ends up actually making it to the store with me, I end up getting so distracted by all the cool/​fun stuff, that I don’t even usually look at it. I think subconsciously, I know that it is 3 minutes away from my house, and I also know that if I «forget» to get a staple item, I can always make a trip back, and perhaps pick up a pair of shoes, or a necklace, or a decorative pillow to go with the forgotten milk, orange juice, toliet paper, etc. It has gotten to the point that I get «HEY Kayla!» from a handful of employees when I am in the store. Is that sad?
Now that we have gone over my extreme love for the Target Corporation, I will get on with the actual review of this store.
This isn’t a gigantic Target. If you are looking for the 15-​acre-​style Target, you’re going to have to head out to the suburbs… I’m going to safely assume that real estate is a bit more expensive and harder to come by in large amounts in this area (downtown). But it does have all of the essentials, and a pretty decent grocery section. In fact, I do pretty much all of my pantry grocery shopping here, and sometimes get some good produce, like bananas, fresh berries, or meat, like chicken breasts or ground turkey. They also have a few great fresh Bakery items that I can’t live without. Do yourself a HUGE favor, and pick up a loaf of the Blueberry streusel breakfast bread. Its AMAZING! I literally go through at least a loaf a week. More like 2. Sometimes 3, in a good week.
This particular location usually is stocked well with all of the essentials that I come for. with a couple of exceptions– one being that they never seem to have the size my daughter currently wears in certain staples, like pajamas. But considering my mother has an intense obsession with the children clothing deal website, Zulily, I don’t really need to do TOO much clothes shopping for my girl. So instead, I just get a few articles of Mommy clothes from time to time. Target really has stepped up their game by way of women’s clothing, including shoes, handbags, and other various accessories. Often they will feature an up-​and-​coming hip designer that has made a small collection of unique looking pieces, made specifically for Target. A great way to look designer chic at a small fraction of the price!
I have a Target debit card, which is basically like their store credit card, except it is linked directly to your checking account, so you can get the 5 percent off
your total without accumulating credit card debt, and the fun interest charges that accompany said credit card. Between my Red debit card, and their somewhat new Cartwheel application for your smartphone, I always end up saving a pretty good amount. For those of you unfamiliar with Cartwheel. you need to get with it and download. If you ever shop at Target, it will save you some extra change. You add deals to your «cartwheel» that you are planning on buying… say, 10 percent off a gallon of milk. That sort of thing. On a good day, it will peel a couple bucks off your total. So far, I’ve saved something over $ 130… yeah, I know.
Also, one thing I have noticed is this particular Target is open a tad later than most others in this area. They are open til 11 (10 on Sunday), which is helpful for me and my cray cray life.
So, in closing, we all know about Target. but this one happens to be MINE ( Unilocal says so). I’m thinking they may hang up a picture of me at the entrance, so look for that soon. ;)

Recently this location quickly became one of my favorites. I’ve been here a few times now. This past time I went in because we were in downtown and went for convenience.
The store is nice and clean and well organized. We found everything we needed.
My favorite part about this store though was the service. Our checker, while we were only with him for less than 5 minutes to checkout, was fantastic. Great personality. When I complimented him to his superior he had me full out a quick service form. I was glad to do it. A company is really made up/​represented by their employees. Guess that’s why target does so well. I’m a firm believer in not just recognizing people when they make mistakes. People should get praised for their excellence as well.

I lived overseas for a number of years and coming back to the U.S. and shopping at Target (Tar-​jay) is always a treat, if not a bit overwhelming. This one is no different. Great layout, great selection, a nice Starbucks just inside the door, friendly and helpful staff. «If they don’t have what you want at Target, you don’t need it.» is the old saying.
Having just moved back to the U.S. and to SLC for the first time, there were many items on my «NEED NOW» list to help make the transition seamless. I love the huge selection in the grocery department… and some of the items I heeded to storage and hanging clothes were surprisingly inexpensive. Lots of very helpful staff on the floor working… and who are never too busy to stop what they are doing to assist you in finding what you need! Larger-​than-​needed parking lot and quality shopping carts make shopping at this Target a real pleasure.
If there was one negative it is this… I like to shop early (I’m sure jet-​lag has something to do with this fact!) and I arrived at opening-​time. As did several others. No problem… except at checkout time. Only one checkstand was open and there was quite a line! C’mon, Target… this must be a daily ritual… have enough staff on hand to open 2 – 3 registers for the «morning rush» !!
I am sure I will be a regular here!

It’s big, it’s clean. That’s what I tell all the ladies.

I LOVE this Target! It’s never crowded, I always get a slammin’ parking spot, and when I use my «Red Card», I always save 5% off my purchase (yes, even inside at Starbuck’s).
So…I order my coffee, and stroll the aisles at my leisure. This store is organized, and also has a grocery section. Can’t find what you’re looking for? If you have a «Red Card» you can order the item online and they will ship it to your house for FREE — and yes, you still save 5%.
What’s a «Red Card»? It’s a card issued by Target, but it’s not a credit card, whatever I buy is automatically debited from my bank account.

I stopped in again today and realized how much I actually do like this Target. It’s close enough to downtown that I dig the convenience, but I also feel like it’s not encroaching the downtown scene.
Here’s a a tip: they do sell ice. Bad news is, it’s on the faaaaaar wall of the store, so if you need to dash in to buy ice before a big event, for example, it’s probably the least convenience place to do it. I wish it was like Harmons and many other stores where they have an ice machine up front or even in the entryway. I got a good workout filling my cart and then trekking all the way back across the store.
