About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the late afternoon, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes in the Target parking lot, he noticed something odd nestled among the groceries: an old, dusty kite with brightly colored ribbons. Nobody seemed to claim it, and soon enough, rumors began swirling around town that every now and then, when you least expected it, a mysterious stranger would appear near the checkout counter holding a strange item—maybe a vintage toy or an antique book. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the cashier with a small, battered teddy bear. When asked where he found it, he smiled and said, 'I saw it sitting on one of the shelves, just waiting for someone who needed a little comfort.' And ever since then, customers started leaving tiny tokens—a handwritten note here, a forgotten earring there—for anyone who might feel down. It became Target’s secret way of spreading kindness.

2. In the early morning hours, while a delivery driver unloaded crates in the Target parking lot, an unexpected voice crackled over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention shoppers—we’ve just received our newest shipment of invisible deodorant.’ The delivery driver scratched his head and looked around suspiciously. No one else seemed to hear it but him. He shrugged and continued his work. Later that day, a regular noticed their neighbor sniffing the air as they walked past the store. When asked what was up, the neighbor replied, 'Just checking if Target’s new invisible deodorant works.'

3. In the middle of the night, a delivery driver unpacked crates in the dimly lit Target warehouse when he noticed something strange on each box: ‘Open Me First.’ As he opened them one by one, he found packets of free samples—chocolates, chips, and cookies. Turns out, it was just Target’s way of saying 'thank you' for working late. The next morning, everyone got a surprise package with a note: "Happy Shopping! Your friendly neighborhood Target team."}

4. At midnight, while a delivery driver unpacked crates in the dimly lit Target warehouse, a regular passing by asked curiously: ‘Do they sell moonlight here?’ Suddenly, an eerie glow filled the aisles as if someone had turned on the night sky inside. The delivery driver looked up, puzzled, and replied, 'Not exactly, but we do have some pretty bright LED lights!' A regular, standing nearby, laughed and said, 'Next time I’ll bring my own shopping cart—seems like it’s got its own wheels now.'
