All for $48 with tax. All of the clothes were under $7.48 except the silk shirt ($10.48), and the shoes were $11.48.

Sigh... I'm in love!

as soon as I can measure myself I'm so ordering a pair.

and if you think of it as custom-tailored clothing (instead of expensive Target clothes), $35 is a pretty good deal.

To Whom it May Concern:

I have a newborn baby and the last thing I am capable of doing at this point is keeping track of receipts, especially for something costing $2.19. I find it absolutely ridiculous that in order to return said item, I was only allowed to exchange it for something in the SAME DEPARTMENT. Especially given the fact that the baby section of the store is typically a disaster area and woefully understocked (this is the case in multiple Target stores). Why could I not receive a gift card and then go on my merry way to spend my $2.19 in whichever department I choose? You have my $2.19, why do you care in which department it is spent? Maybe I don't want to buy something in baby, maybe I would like to buy a potted plant.

I spend a great deal of money at Target, however, if this policy remains in place I will take my business elsewhere. With a new baby around, the last thing I am interested in doing is sifting through receipts, including gift receipts to return something when it does not suit my needs. I know I am not the only customer who feels this way as my friends and I have discussed it, and what a shame it is that Target is becoming less and less consumer friendly.


Soon to be former customer,

So, I bought Al a movie. A DVD. Except, I accidentally bought the full-screen edition instead of the widescreen edition.

Will somebody (anybody) tell me why I had to pay $5 more for the widescreen edition? It was, as far as I was concerned (and really, each of the 3 employees I talked to all agreed) an even exchange, but I had to pay the extra $5 + tax because that's what the system said.

Did this change? For a while it was no returns AT ALL unless it's within 90 days AND you had the receipt or brought it back to the same store from which you bought it (and paid with a credit card) so they could look you up.

A few years ago, I bought a wedding present for a co-worker of C's. Four months later, C hadn't taken it to work, and the guy moved away, so I tried to take it back. Even though I bought it BEFORE that policy went into effect, and even though I tried to talk to the manager, no dice.

We kept it, unopened, until almost exactly a year after the wedding, the guy was stopping through town. I gave it to them as an anniversary present.

Anyway, if you can now exchange it for something in the same department, that's better than it used to be.
