About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while restocking shelves, a Target employee noticed something peculiar in the dairy aisle—a box of cereal with an extra serving size. Curious customers soon started finding similar items around the store: a can of soup with double portions, a bag of chips that seemed to multiply inside shopping carts. Soon enough, word spread like wildfire through social media. People flocked to Target just to see if they could get ‘double-deals.’ A regular even claimed he saw a self-checkout lane where groceries magically added themselves to your cart! In reality, it was just a cleverly placed sign. But who’s counting calories when you’re getting twice as much for free?

2. One day, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes of canned goods, he heard an odd announcement over the store’s PA: ‘Attention please—we’re out of canned laughter!’ The delivery driver looked around nervously but saw no one laughing. Then he realized—he was hearing canned laughter from a sitcom playing on his truck radio! Embarrassed, he quickly finished his job and left. From that day on, whenever anyone asked him why he always drove with the radio on, he’d just smile and say, ‘For the customers’.

3. One night, as a cashier scanned items late into the evening, she overheard a customer muttering under their breath: ‘Why does everything here cost exactly $9.99? It’s like they rounded up everyone’s prices except mine!’ Curious, she looked around and saw no one else in sight. Just as she turned back to her register, she heard another voice whisper from behind her: 'And why is it that every time I come here, my total comes out to be $18.99?' Turning sharply, she found herself facing only empty aisles—except for a stray shopping cart slowly rolling down an aisle. The cashier shrugged it off as a strange coincidence until, later that week, she noticed that her own groceries always seemed to add up to something just slightly more than everyone else's.

4. Late one night, as a security guard patrolled the aisles, he swore he saw a box of cereal floating down the isle. Curious, he followed it until it stopped in front of a display for another brand. Suddenly, an exhausted delivery driver appeared from behind and muttered, ‘I thought I told you to stop moving around like that!’
