My church in NJ started a Target boycott for Lent and we still have not bought anything from them! I will not do business with anyone who cares in to Trah and Co.😬😬😬😬😬😡😡😡😡
Love this! I’m Harrison, an ex fine dining industry line cook. My stack "The Secret Ingredient" adapts hit restaurant recipes (mostly NYC and L.A.) for easy home cooking.
I feel guilty because I’ve had to spend like a total of 50$ there since this all went down….but no more! Not one penny until they stop this bull shit. I just don’t understand why don’t these companies see how well Costco is doing and say hey, if they can do it, we can too! How dumb are they?????
Target missed reading the room and its demographic. Minnesota based, lower cost products targetted at the victim demographic. They've been been screwing up ever since the next generation of little silverspoon trustees took over.
I'm NEVER going back. And it used to be my and my daughter's favorite little happy place. I have spent hundreds of frivolous dollars there. We went weekly. They have lost my trust and I have broken the spell with this hiatus. I just don't need it anymore. I now know my first mistake was ever believing a company cared about anything besides the bottom line. And since that's the case, I just won't be contributing to their bottom line ever again.
Target deserves every bit of this, their stores are run by a diverse group of people and their customers represent DEI at its best. Tough luck, Target. It's what you get for bowing to the racists.
Who could have guessed that the federal government forcing independent companies to reject diversity could have adverse consequences. It’s mind boggling that any thinking voter believed this hateful administration would return America to some glory days when everyone prospered and everyone was happy. There is zero joy or hope in Donald Trump. He’s only capable of harm. Everything he does causes businesses to lose money, customers and market value. Every day we learn of another university, or company, or media outlet, or judge who Trump intends to hurt. How is any of this destructive, self-inflicted chaos supposed to improve life in America or the world?
In January I sent an angry email to Target, to which I got a pretty bad “no no, we’re not dropping our commitment to diversity, we planned all this before and also we just want to stop saying diversity” email. Last week I sent a follow up email letting them know they could have me back as a customer if they publicly announced a recommitment to DEI and reinstated programs to stock products by minority owned businesses, that sort of thing.
My email box is a mess but so far as I can tell, they haven’t replied to that one.
I misunderstood what you wrote. I thought you wrote that you'd found alternatives to Target ON Amazon, instead of alternatives to both. I apologize for misunderstanding. What I wrote probably didn't make a lot of sense.
Curiosity may kill cats, but right now and for me, it’s a major driving force of life. I just have to know how this turns out. I wouldn’t make book on my fellow Americans coming to their senses, but rather how bad will it get?
😥😥😥😥😥😥

They probably have demographic studies telling them what percentage of their customers are racist MAGA stooges.
Ethical principles count for little; corporate moves are dictated by whichever way the wind blows.

I wish we had a Costco nearby.
I haven't shopped at Target in about a year.
A gay friend once said to me, "I'm going to Target to buy a lot of things I don't need."
I thought it was hysterical because I was doing the same thing. Not anymore, kidz.
Robyn, check out Primark for tights. Not as many options as Target but decent quality and unbelievably low prices
