Target

This company is the perfect example of how not to fo e-commerce. They did a "free global shipping" recently, people wasted their time ordering products and finally they just cancelled most of the orders with no explanation. I will never waste time entering their website.

Ordered a vacuum online at Target.com Wednesday to be delivered to my daughter who lives in another city. The online form said it would be "arriving by Saturday, Sept. 25." That was acceptable to me, so I ordered it. Today I received an email stating it would arrive either Tuesday, Sept. 28 or likely, Wednesday, Sept. 29, - both dates when my daughter's likely working and will not be home to receive the UPS delivery. This increases the likelihood it will be nicked. What annoys me most is the old bait and switch. Target tells me it'll be delivered Saturday and gets me to buy it from them when I could have paid $6 more and bought it through Amazon and definitely had it by Saturday. Target's customer service agent Nick tells me nothing can be done. Really? Well I'm hoping more potential Target shoppers see this negative review and decide against shopping at Target.com. I won't be duped again!

Unless they've drastically upgraded their site in past few days, I would not recommend anyone to plan to find their way around it easily. It's a mishmash of products, organised in weird and incomprehensible ways. I went on target.com, looking for a hat. A HAT, and ended up sifting through about 20 pages of bathing suits, belts and shoes... since they were red too. See what I mean about the weird organisation?

I've never understood this store. They market themselves as a 'discount' type chain such as Walmart, yet over charge for everything! Their furniture is extremely expensive considering the poor quality and the fact again they are a "discount" store. Their shoes are literally made of the cheapest possible materials. They also have a no makeup return policy which is illegal in the US! Not really sure how they're getting away with that. BUT their supermarket sections are priced comparable to Walmart, so yes in theory they are a discount store. When they see fit.

I hate this site. For being such a large corporation you'd think they would have a decent website/online ordering interface. First of all, the site rarely loads correctly. When it does, they tell you they have something in stock, you pay, wait for shipping, and then they email you telling you it's actually not in stock. Yet half the time it is, they basically just cancel your sale for no reason. This has happened more than twice to me. I refuse to buy anything else on Target.com ever again and recommend no one else does either!

I would shop Target if they offered free shipping. We own a mom and pop cottages/motel and we do much online shopping for all kinds of business supplies. Targets prices are the same as competitors who ship for free too.

I used to love Target. Would shop there a couple times a month and always pick up clothing or shoes, home items. The merchandise has been cheap and tacky. It seems they have given up quality and style for low margins. Too bad it was such a great store.

Love Target! Prices are really better than CVS, Walgreens, etc. I love their return policy. I just found an unopened knee brace I had bought in April for my son. He never used it, but left it in his room. I took it back to Target and it was returned, no questions asked! I didn't have a receipt but used my card. I ALWAYS use the card so they can easily refund me on my card. You also get % off your purchases, so it's totally worth it.

Where do I start? I do a lot of comparison shopping, and they always seem to have the lowest prices on most things, especially beauty products. I do own probably too many high end shoes and bags, but have recently bought a pair of faux suede sandals here( learned the hard way suede shoes get damaged easily, so don't spend your money there) that look like real suede and are a hot style that I've seen pretty much identical for, no kidding, hundreds of dollars more. I walked for hours in them, super comfortable. I have even bought a pair of jeans here and a couple of dresses and tees. And on top of that, the stores are well designed and stocked, with very nice, helpful employees. Keep your eyes peeled, they always have some great sale going on.
Then there's the website. Very easy to navigate, with an amazing selection and free shipping at $25.00. On top of that their customer service and return policy are top notch.

IMS is not updated in real time to reflect actual stock in the store, which is absolutely insane to me. Changes in current orders are not emailed to the customer in a timely manner, takes about 24 hours for the automated system to send the email which at that point you've already gone out of your way to figure out what's going on with your order.

Stay away from Target's online ordering if you value your time. It will be wasted, guaranteed.

I like target.com and they have stuff online that you can't get in stores. Got a great deal on plastic storage bins but when they arrived, there was absolutely no cushioning in the package and two of the lids were cracked. But i would've had to take the whole set into to a store and then reorder... and take the chance that it would arrive damaged again. I still order from them occasionally, but they'll never be my #1.

Target always has what Im looking for for my home, personal use or a tool that I need. Im talking about everyday tools that you may need around your household. I can buy plants there, lamps, socks and jewelry. Great place to shop for gifts. Their prices are a bit higher than KMart or Walmart but they offer nice surroundings and great organization within the store; items are always labeled and stored in-order. I like being able to find things easily and you can at Target.

I personally enjoy shopping at target and decided to check out the website. It is pretty convenient, but has its faults. First, often things are listed as not in stock when they really should be. Other than that, it is a typical website with a cart, and you can order things, although it is a bit small. 6/10 recommend

I'm always Leary of walking into a Target store because I'll go in for one item & walk out with a cart full. Target amazes me with the unique decorating ideas for home that they have. I've also seen the clothing line become a bit more "up scale". On line I've found that sometimes you're limited to type of item available but this is another of my favorites.

Target charged me twice for the"free promotional gift card" when I purchased items required for the gift cards. They never said on the site this would happen and after wasting an hour on the phone with individuals who were very hard to understand they mentioned they were having a lot of complaints. Yes! Cheating people leads to this! Never thought I'd say this but I'll shop at Walmart!

Purchasing the core invasion TV mount was a great purchase. It was very easy to follow the instructions easy to mount!… and now we have a beautiful 55" screen sitting pretty on the wall. If you are not savvy on all things handyman you're gonna find is a rubber pressure super easy to put together!

I purchased 5 different items online. Initially prompted me that items I'm purchasing are available for same day delivery. Boy was I wrong to order from Target. At check out it turned out that its only available for 2-days. That 2 days became 7 days, then 10 days. I get delayed shipment emails every day. Now my order are being delivered one item per day, such a waste. One of the items is 3 orders of a hand soup, which came in 3 different shipment almost 2 weeks after Target's delivery claim of same day delivery. Target online ordering is at least a decade behind today's norm.

Very cheap items!
To avoid buyer's remorse, I buy what I need, which are usually Boots lipsticks, from target.com. I've read bad experiences that other consumers have had, which makes me avoid other types of purchases online.
Thanks Target!

Target is on everyone's favorite list when it comes to retail stores! What makes this place so special? Their inventory and prices. They have great buyers who think outside the box to be different than other retail stores at great prices. The bright red shopping carts are easy to push (and fill)! This store always makes me happy and with the addition of food, it can be a one stop shop kinda day!

Target is just great. They have their act together. Ordering online is easy, returns are no-hassle, shipping is fast. I love how you can shop online and have it sent to the store for pick up too... so convenient!

Returned to the store where I purchased a phone Thursday for help with locating my contacts. Was advised by associate should not have purchased phone from the other associate as she is untrustworthy and messes up all the time. Checked my sale. All costs misrepresented to me. Then advised verizon will charge me $300 to 400 for returning it. Also told no need to r talk to target management. Nothing they could do

Let's face it, there are X numbered popular items that are available in many stores at similar prices. Target tries to offer a few products e.g. electronics and seasonal attractions that are a bit nicer ($$$) than their competitors. They do this by eliminating some of the really low ball items. But keep your guard up they sell many of the cheap items found elsewhere.

Although I prefer to eat out in nice restaurants I actually enjoy their personal sized pizza.

Christmas time has been a controversy at Target. I love the Christmas season, the decorations and the music. I also enjoy greeting others with a Merry Christmas. Target avoids such holiday amenities by policy (yes they do decorate their stores nicely). So when you enter Target at Christmas time the first thing you will notice is the silence. There was a time I would have been offended at the veiled secularity but I must admit I actually enjoy shopping in a more quiet atmosphere.

Unfortunately, Target latest return policy makes it less favorite shopping place for our family needs. Too many restrictions, like return of kids products and or return with no receipt (limited to certain $ amount per year). Thus, it provides less security for shopping. We all moving to other places, like Walmart, Costco, Sams club now.
