About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In Target Optical’s quiet hallway, an elderly gentleman adjusted his glasses while waiting for service. Suddenly, every Wednesday at precisely 3 p.m., the ceiling fan would inexplicably slow down and begin humming in perfect pitch—an octave higher than usual. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Why does it sound like your ceiling fan is singing?’ The old gentleman smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘It’s not just any fan—it’s our little secret.’ And so, on Wednesdays at exactly 3 p.m., Target Optical continued its unique musical tradition, delighting both customers and passersby alike.

2. In Target Optical’s dimly lit storeroom, a delivery driver carefully unpacked boxes when he heard a soft humming sound. Curious, he followed it to a dusty corner where an old pair of spectacles seemed to glow faintly in the dark. As he got closer, he noticed that the glasses were moving ever so slightly, as if they were breathing. Startled, he called out, ‘Hello? Who are you?’ A voice replied softly from behind him, ‘Just an old pair of specs trying to see better.’ The delivery driver burst into laughter and realized it was just his neighbor’s misplaced reading glasses.

3. At Target Optical, after hours, a mysterious voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Please return your reading glasses to their rightful owners.’ One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off with his reading glasses on the counter. The next morning, he found them neatly placed outside his door with a note: 'Thank you for borrowing our glasses!' At Target Optical, even ghostly voices know good customer service.

4. In Target Optical’s fitting room, a customer tried on her new frames and asked aloud, ‘Do these make my eyes look bigger?’ The mirror replied softly, ‘Not yet.’ A few minutes later, an elderly gentleman emerged from the fitting room, rubbing his temples and muttering, 'These make my eyes look like they're having a party!' The mirror winked back and said, 'Welcome to our optical soiree.'
