About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular was scanning his groceries when he noticed something odd on the shelf: an entire aisle of identical packages labeled ‘Discounted Tomatoes – Only Buy One.’ Curious neighbors started asking if it was true that Target had accidentally priced them so low they could only sell one per customer. Soon enough, everyone in town was rushing to Target to buy their single tomato. A delivery driver even tried selling extra tomatoes from his truck for double the price, claiming they were ‘limited edition!’ Eventually, someone from management realized what was happening and quickly changed the sign to read ‘Buy as Many as You Like.’ The next day, people lined up again—just to get just one tomato.

2. A delivery driver was unloading boxes in the back room when he heard an unusual sound coming from one of the crates. Curious, he opened it and found a small, mischievous-looking teddy bear wearing a Target employee’s uniform. The little bear kept peeking out from behind the crate, waving its arms and giggling. The delivery driver smiled, picked up the bear, and decided to keep him as a surprise for his kids. That night, while putting away groceries, everyone in the family found their own matching uniforms—even the cat got a onesie! It turned out that Target had accidentally shipped an entire crate full of toy employees.

3. Late one night, a security guard patrolling the parking lot swore he saw a shadowy figure darting between cars. The next day, employees reported hearing strange whispers coming from the freezer aisle after closing hours. Finally, someone claimed to see a ghostly shopping cart mysteriously zipping down the aisles during rush hour. Turned out it was just an overeager a delivery driver practicing for his new job as Santa’s elf.

4. Late one night, a cashier finishing her shift overheard a customer asking aloud: ‘Why does everything here cost exactly ten dollars less than everywhere else?’ Curious, she followed the voice into an empty aisle and saw only a delivery driver adjusting boxes. He winked and whispered, ‘It’s our little secret—we round up prices before closing!’ The next day, everyone in town knew Target was playing a prank on itself, and it became a friendly joke among neighbors.
