I always have and always will. And what makes it even better, I&#8217;ve married into Target! Justin loves it just as much as I do, if not more. His whole family is a Target family. How could I have married into Target you ask? Well, Justin&#8217;s dad works for Target Corporation. We like to tell people he has a cool job like stock boy or electronic center guy. But he&#8217;s just an architect for Target. Boring! He doesn&#8217;t know when things go on sale or if they are going to get that new handheld instant chat thing that Justin is always looking for. <\/p>\n<p>Ok I take all that back. Justin&#8217;s pop does have a pretty cool job and a sweet discount. We like to take advantage of it when we are visiting or he&#8217;s visiting us. We tend to go to Target at least 3 times in a 3 day visit. That&#8217;s average. It might seem a little excessive to some, but not to us.<\/p>\n<p>A few years ago while living in Utah, Target came out with SuperTarget. Oh my garage! This was the best of both worlds. I could mill around the regular Target side while I thought about what was for dinner. Then move over to the Super side and grab some food. Justin&#8217;s dad told me that no matter what time of day you go to the SuperTarget for some produce, you will always get the best of the best. And it&#8217;s true. No crappy banana&#8217;s, no limp looking asparagus and no bruised apples. So I could go in there with a blind fold on and just reach and it would be the best. I loved it!<\/p>\n<p>But then I moved. So recently I e-mailed Target to find out when they are going to build a SuperTarget by me (and only me, forget all you up in North Las Vegas!). And their prompt reply just shows you their dedication to all SuperTarget fans:<\/p>\n<p>Dear J. *****,<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re glad to hear you want a SuperTarget store in Las Vegas area. <br \/>Interest from SuperTarget fans like you is a major factor we consider when <br \/>we decide to build a new store.<\/p>\n<p>As you might imagine, a lot of work goes into determining where and <br \/>when to build a Target store. A lot of people in the private and <br \/>government areas get involved and it may take months or even years to build a <br \/>store. Right now we&#8217;re evaluating other areas in the continental United <br \/>States, but don&#8217;t worry &#8211; I&#8217;ll be happy to pass along your suggestion to <br \/>our Real Estate team for review.<\/p>\n<p>Have questions about Target stores, products or service? You can give <br \/>us a call at (800) 440-0680, or visit us on Target.com. Either way, <br \/>we&#8217;re happy to help.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for your interest in shopping with us. I hope we&#8217;ll see you soon <br \/>at a Target near you.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Benny<br \/>Target Guest Relations<br \/>www.target.com<br \/>[THREAD ID:1-143065]<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think that Benny understands how much I want a SuperTarget here. First off, there are very few in the Western United States and there is plenty of land out here to build a few of them. Has he seen Nevada? Come on! And I&#8217;m sure his real estate team isn&#8217;t even going to see this e-mail. He&#8217;s trashing it as we speak! <\/p>\n<p>Since Benny was no help at all, I ask all of my friends, readers, co-workers and whoever else to go to Target.com and send them an e-mail asking them when we are going to get a SuperTarget out here. <\/p>\n<p>Now I have to go and make some banana bread because my banana&#8217;s are bruised. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love Target.
