They slashing hours for workers too but we’ll keep that on the low.
I'm not keeping it on the low. Say it loud and proud. At my former store, they cut almost everyone down to four-hour shifts, then yelled at us to do as much work as an eight-hour shift. That way they can maximize their profits while screwing their employees. Rather than be exploited like that, we all just quit and are now boycotting the company. Boycott Target!
being given 12 hours a week is pitiful

Good because customer service sucks anyways, I walked out of Walmart due to crusty customer service, consumers would care but since workers don’t care about service why should we care about their hours.
@@arieee8182 me, personally, i care to provide the best customer service possible. i like helping people. that sucks though that you had bad experiences.
It's too expensive. The market now is poor and rich. Their is a middle class but it's falling apart
Grammar and punctuation are useful for readers, and can affect meaning, for your future reference. They’re not worthless.
Even if target lower their prices… They will be at the regular price. Not discounts! Don’t fall for it.
Exactly.
I guess spiking their prices to record levels didn't work out for them and now they have to lower it back down to normal
TRYING TO COMPETE WITH WALMART
STOPPED SHOPPING AT TARGET 🎯 YEARS AGO
Me 😂 too🙋🏽♀️
I haven't shopped at Target since my 26 yr old son wanted a nerf toy when he was 15
Even the “tuck friendly” swimsuits?
I haven't been in Target for quite a while now (probably since the pandemic). I see no reason to go rushing back.
Nope!
Never shopping at Target again.
Me neither. After working there, nothing could make me give that company my money.
Bud Light $3.99 a six pack
I remember when Target had all 11 registers open
Walk in a Target now you might see two registers open
The employee turnover is insane with Target
They also make it hard to get employed there. 🤣
As a former employee, I know WHY their turnover is insane. At my old store, we would place bets on how long the new hires would last. Best chance of winning the bet was guessing 1-2 days. Tarsh*t is the new Walmart. Stay away!
Why now, when most of us are poor.😢 That should have happened 2 years ago😢
I just dont know which bathroom i need to use at target
😂
lmao
Lowering prices on items that we don't actually need. Try lowering more on basic necessities. Especially on meats and produce because these get spoiled easily than those on the shelves
Here's the trick. Raise your prices, say it's due to inflation, then lower them and make it seem like you're doing the world a favor.
Is this news or advertising ?
🤫 if u kno u kno 😅
Advertising
Target your sales are going down because you did what you did with the wokeness just like with Bud Light leave our children alone
💯
Corporate greed is the issue NOT inflation.
So they are basically having a sale. That’s what lowering price is on some item, having a sale. 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
Sales may be down, but their items have been flying off the shelves in places like NYC, SF and Oakland.
🤣😂😅
must be that 100% black off
Go woke go broke
Target will become this decade's Circuit City 😂
Economy not looking good.
So prices CAN be randomly lowered, companies just CHOOSE to keep them high?🤔
There's no need to lower if people keep buying, right?
just like rent …
So if they can slash prices then why don’t they just keep the prices lower. Goes to show you they rip you off .
I hope I can get a moderately inexpensive tuck friendly swim suit. Exhibition month is just around the corner.
Exhibition month LMAO 😂🤣
I don’t go to target🙅🏽🙅🏽♀️🙅🏽♂️🤷🏽♀️😊
Best Buy and up next is Target. The brick and mortar businesses can not compete with the internet or on line purchasing. And then you have to figure in the rent. Target is toast.
Too little ,too late 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Another retail giant headed for the butcher block!
Domino effect.
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.
Rich gotta rich. Poor gotta serve, suffer, and *submit*. 💪😎✌️ It do be what it do be.
Dont forget 99c only stores gone so the surplus inventory ...
Nice Free Commercial for Target. Not really...
Really? How about in San Fran?
Another one going out of business and they are tripping on the prices
The ONLY thing memorable about Target, is “Target Lady”.
Good, not coming back.
Oh great, so they’re going back to the slightly less high prices they were at earlier this year? Wonderful.
Now its fast foods turn, them make billions!
Going outa business sale, they won't tell you straight out so stocks don't cash out overnight
Because people stopped shopping there due to high prices - they are losing market share.
Everything too overpriced there haven't been there in at least a decade don't plan on going back either..
“Target is bringing down some items after they raised them up a month ago”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂no way they have to pay transportation and cost .
Big chain retail are on a steady decline - Amazon’s convenience and adoption via C0vid has forever changed Consumer buying behaviour.
But will they have lower prices than walmart???
I never shopped there, but with the trans foolishness I never will. Nope and nope.
Probe energy is going through a court case for its chemicals in drinks so Ktla who wrote your script for today
Too late
Looks like they got a lot of the stolen merch back. 💪😎✌️
I wonder if they are closing thats way. That’s what most retailers might do. Online sales are killing brick and mortar stores
F Target. It was corporate greed plain and simple. Covid supplyline issues were mostly resolved within 6-9 months. I quit shopping at target years ago when their greed started to show and i dont miss it.
It's hard to believe a corporation cut consumer prices. They prob can afford to as their orig prices brought in a hefty profit.
Go woke go broke. That tuck and hide display was the end.
Everywhere?
who cares? never shopping at target again regardless !!
RIGHT ON,,,, I HATE WALMART 👏👏👏🏆
Probably on their way out of la too...
After what that one target and it’s people did to that poor disabled guy I want be going there! Call the cops on you for taking to long and you shoving cash in their machine as they haul you off to jail! Nope no thanks I’m good I can get my cheap crap some where else!
damn, where was this? and when? smh!!
Strange how this happens once $$ Stores are closed up.

I think I would've wanted to hear that story over Target slashing prices lol.
give the workers more hours!!!
I think it’s a way to get the thousands of shoppers they lost not because of inflation LOL
Alfred, let's go shoppin'!🛒🛍️💰
Will this include Pokémon TCG? 🤔
How's that price gouging working out for ya?
😡🤯😤😡
It’s everywhere
If you're not shopping at sams club.. you're overspending
They are lowering prices not because their customers are suffering but because their profits are! Amazing how hypocritical they are. I'll start shopping at target when the price of bananas per pound not for each one! $.29 cents each? Ridiculous.
$9.99 for tuck friendly swim suits? Really?😂
Getting ready for pride?
5 cents?
Does the price discount include the trans kids clothes??😂
Hopefully it goes out the way like 99 cent stores
Nothing is a dollar anymore!
Not even advice! 😂😂😂
Thank Biden,Newsom,Karen Bass,Nanci Pelosi
When Target went GAF...hard pass.
Many of us changed
stores due to Pride boycott. They're trying to get us back.
If you’re boycotting because of your bigotry, they don’t want to back.
@@moonshoes11 So anyone who is against pedophilia is a bigot?
@@moonshoes11I’m pretty certain you aren’t accurate
Stop trying to ignore factual information
@@misslee9494
Have you offered anything anyone would consider factual?
@@moonshoes11 So anyone who is against pedophilia is a bigot?
Discounts on their tuck friendly swimwear for trans from their PRIDE collection?
Smart move
They can give the stuff away; I don't shop at WOKE businesses.
Target be next. It's all going Sam's club with 3rd party support from India. Which is a joke because "we're in India" as the old adage goes.
Tried to push the child groom with shirts and rainbow nonsense that they lost too many customers to please the few percent. I went recently after they pulled that stunt because they had this specific thing I needed that no one else carried and it looked like a ghost town in there
Child grooming actually happens at church, not Target.
You’re just easily fooled by misinformation.
Sorry Target pushing thr Pride Month display did it for me.
Target shouldn’t have gone woke.
Was not the reason we left !!!
😢
Last time we were at target it was to confirm that they actually sold "tuck" swimsuits. They were there. And we are gone. Bye!
No, they weren’t.
There’s some stupid people in the comments but you win biggest dummy prize.
Not a 'tuck' kinda guy, so I really do not feel the need to support a place that does. Sorry, if that offends you. We should all be able to go and do what ever we choose without hatefulness. My choice. My dollar.
Have a nice day, cheers!
@@Thatsthewayoftheworld
But you feel the need to hate on places that support other people?
You know, they offer other products there too, right?
“We should all be able to go and do whatever we choose without hatefulness.”
Oh the hypocrisy.
@@moonshoes11 No hate. No sore feelings. You go, have a delicious time! I am free to pass. Walk on by.
Get rid of supplies before the economic crash don’t buy it haha
Inflation or because transgender bathrooms !!!
The shoplifters caused them to raise prices, their rainbow products drove away a huge group of their main customers, the economy and less spending, are main causes. If the 99 cent store closed, anything is possible.
Her hair is effing amazing!
Walmart taking over lol. Target for the rich lol
Target has always been more expensive plus they're pretty gay for all their gay pride stuff in the kids section screw target.
they price-gouged us during the plandemic and now they want us back? everything they're price-cutting is probably out of date or cheap merch to begin with, too. we don't forget how they treated the public like that.
retail giants are collapsing, but start-up entrepreneurs think they're gonna make it and get RICH!!! 🙄 🤣🤣🤣
Trying to get customers back after pushing their trans, gay, woke BS.
TOO LATE! 😂
They’re still doing better than you.
@@moonshoes11
I'm doing fine. Thanks.

Are you though?
Seems like maybe you’re carrying around some unwarranted hatred.
@@moonshoes11
None at all.
@@289cobra9
Nah, it’s obvious. You can lie to yourself. I bet that happens a lot.
a
Ya it’s all the woke crap that didn’t sell.
Doesn't matter, I'm not shopping at a place that puts trans above normal people.
Bidenomics sadly
🎉🎉🎉 I love clothes and shoes.. thank you Target 🎯 I'm going to look fly this summer 🏝️🌞🌞🥵
Love Target, but kind of expensive!
Thanks Joe Biden
It’s funny because target brand products are way more than the name brands… they act like they don’t control that.
