    They can certainly afford that with how little they pay their employees and how they cut corners. Worked at Target for a short period of time, and it was hell. Wage and hour violations, safety violations, managers physically grabbing employees and yelling at employees in front of customers, they cut our hours down to almost nothing and still expected us to complete the same workload, and "pay raises" of 8 pennies were given to all employees. Complaints to corporate went unaddressed, meaning the company endorses such behavior. Will never give my money to a company like that.....even with lower prices.

      ​​​​@@ChrisXperinceI used to like shopping at target and best buy because they used sell a bunch of cds and physical copies of movies. I still buy and only support physical media for movies, music and video games. I don't support any form of streaming and digital content since the streaming quality is inferior and compressed compared to the physical versions that offer superior quality and with little to no compression. The only compression is based on what the artist is required by the music labels and corporations because they want to cut corners in order to make a quick buck. There are videos on youtube that the artist mentions that they are required by record labels and sound engineers in order to meet the needs of the music labels. It's why spotify is barely paying there artist and certain artists are removing there music from streaming services because the artist knows that they are barely getting paid much for there hard work. It's already worse now that ai is being talked about so much entering 2024 like it's the end all be all when scammers already have access to ai and smartphones. For watching youtube videos, I only use the modded version of youtube to bypass the ads and bypass the sponsors in the youtube videos.

    Target lost its audience not just due to high pricing in the store but when you need to price match off their site- who has time for that nonsense? If a retailer has the time and money to pay someone to keep prices higher in store and cheaper to order online then I don't think they are suffering too much. They are probably finally matching their online prices in store anyway which still isn't a great savings.

    This is price correction after price gouging. I'm seeing the same thing at BJs. BJs would keep raising everything by a dollar every few months since the pandemic. A box of DiGiorno's pizza went from $10 to $20 in two years. No one bought it, so they're sneaking the price back down.
