I don't like Walmart, either. I'm a small town girl, so I know how dangerous box-stores are to local economies. Still, I'm indifferent to see Target go.<br /><br /><br />That being said, I feel bad for all the people who are losing jobs - the market is not a good one. With Smart Set closing its doors, also, there's going to be a lot of Canadians out of work by the end of 2015.<br /><br /><br />And on a slightly happier note, the Loblaws chain of stores carries ELF cosmetics. It's usually nestled somewhere around the Joe Fresh. :)Wendy Bannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14526918546434899578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5744018256613024831.post-44222641035808345342015-02-19T23:07:09.422-05:002015-02-19T23:07:09.422-05:00It looks like you had a great haul on this trip to...It looks like you had a great haul on this trip to Target. <br /><br />Honestly, I get SO mad about this and I feel pretty much exactly the same as you. No store in Canada is EVER exactly the same as it is in the US for so many different reasons. Pricing is always going to be more as well. UGHHHHHH I just wish other Canadians felt the Target love like we do.<br /><br />Jackie<br /><br /><a href="http://somethingaboutthat.com" rel="nofollow">Something About That</a>Wendy Bannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14526918546434899578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5744018256613024831.post-52994379374531679692015-02-18T17:24:09.722-05:002015-02-18T17:24:09.722-05:00Those scissors are totally adorable, nice find! I ...Those scissors are totally adorable, nice find! I have never shopped in a Canadian Target so I'm not really sure how big the differences are, but even I know that it's unreasonable to expect the same pricing as stores in America, lol. A lot of things are just more expensive in Canada and have been for a long time. Not fun, but what can you do. I'll think of you when I go to my local Target next week - the prices may be cheap but it's sort of a madhouse! (There are relatively few Targets here in NYC and lots of people, so yeah....)Wendy Bannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14526918546434899578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5744018256613024831.post-5156584786891540912015-02-18T10:57:07.798-05:002015-02-18T10:57:07.798-05:00Way too many! I can't understand how on earth ...Way too many! I can't understand how on earth a successful company thought opening nearly all at once was a good idea. And then to open before being fully stocked? Why not push back openings so that you would have items on the shelves? Then, they didn't even offer plus-size clothing because they weren't sure of the market. I'll say they weren't sure of the market! That's why they should have tested it first. Just really dumb to go in blindly with guns blazing! I think they forgot to load those guns!<br /><br /><br />Luckily, the 10% was just on a few things. Most things I saw were 20-30%, but the percentages are growing now. They won't be at full capacity until sometime next month or early April, more than likely. The makeup is going fast! I couldn't even find ELF or NYX, but some Sonia Kashuk was still available. The next time I go, I'll see if they still have the blue mask in stock!Wendy Bannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14526918546434899578noreply@blogger.com
