ka ching for the TGT shareholder

July 26th, 2012 at 05:09 am

I don't usually talk about shopping, but I will today. Today was the first day of a "City" Target located smack dab in the middle of Seattle. Last year, I opened up a Target DRIP and became a Target shareholder, so while I did a little shopping (sliced turkey breast for $5/lb), I did mucho research.

The place was packed - plenty of business being done. An excellent addition to a once nasty block where you now can get lunch fixings, a sport bra, feminine products, hardware, furniture, an iPad, a wheeley suitcase, cards and wrapping paper... not that you couldn't get them before in downtown Seattle, you would have to run a 2 hr steeplechase through at least 7 stores. And you still wouldn't be able to find a hardware store.

So I'm stoked. I'm stoked that I can shop at it, stoked that it really opens up that once incredibly nasty block (2nd & Pike), and I'm stoked that I'm a shareholder to it.

    In addition to being a shareholder you need to apply for the Target Red card (cc or debit card). It gives a 5% discount on ALL purchases.

    Also, if you use your own reusable bag you get a $0.05 credit on the purchase.

    Since it sounds like you will be a frquent Target shopper both of these are good ideas for you.

    I love Target. We have SuperTarget where I live, so I get ALL my groceries there. Glad it's a good deal for you, the area and your investments!

    As a TGT stockholder myself, I'm please "we're" doing good for the neighborhood and for you. My family covers their ears whenever I talk about my Redcard.
