Not nearly as confusing as your Elitist Attitude.

Elitist attitude? Where? Are you referring to how I pointed Target out as a "crappy, below average conglomeration of random products"? Well, it is true. Still, I did not point myself out as above that. I don't have the money to shop a grade-A stores for anything, from groceries to clothing. Trust me; I get a lot of my clothes from Ross (if you know what that is).

I am not saying that I am above Target; I am just saying that some get illusions of grandeur from some reason while shopping there. People need to realize where they are, and that it isn't much different from other supercenters such a Wal-Mart.

I conclude that you missed the point of my post, and instead decided to attack me directly instead of the actual issue. :)
What sane person would actually get "illusions":laugh: of granduer shopping at Target..or even Macy's, Nordstroms or any other popular store? People go to Target to save money..period.

I see lots screaming children in an upscale mall as well. Why go to a store and try to classify people? I shop at both Walmart and Target, and Gucci and Norstrom as well. Even if I make double what I'm making now I'll still go shop at Walmart.

The person who looks with disdain upon the whole store of Wal-Mart, and then later brags to his Target buddies about how much better he is for shopping at Target. If they were really out to only save money, they would be at that Wal-Mart, but money on this board have admitted that they would sacrifice the extra little bit of cash for a 'better shopping experience'.

I'm not saying all Target shoppers are like this, but I have met a few who seriously think that they are stylish for shopping at Target.

The same kind of people that pronounce the store's name with a fake and bastardized french accent...

i like my targets better cuz the items are actually stocked and the prices are actually labeled. unlike walmart, where its hit or miss and eveyrthing is usually in clutters and not shelved properly.
