I think only opened stuff such as coffee, syrupt, cream, milk ect. That would be a mess to transport to another location. They are not throwing away unopened stuff or their equipment bc I would be the first to dumpster dive for their blender or expresso maker. I always wanted one but it cost hundreds.Quote:

Went to Target this morning and they had gotten rid of all of the frozen and cold grocery items :(
It is not always just leftovers though, say they agreed to give XYZ foodbank $25,000 in money/food in 2014-15 and they have only given them $5,000. On their balance sheet, it will show they have an outstanding bill but it relies on the foodbank actually claiming it through the creditor process.Quote:

If you are selling products to the public it is simple as customer recently told our Sales Manager:
"You can have the best Customer Service, the best Quality and even the best Price but if you do not have stock I start looking else where for a new supplier".
Almost every time I went to Target I would go to grab something we just needed, was not on sale anywhere but we needed and they did not have stock so for me this meant a second stop a Wal-Mart for what I needed.
I am shocked they are pulling out of Canada I expected that would close stores but stay but well that is there choice. Locally not sure what is in store for the spaces they are occupying. We do not need anymore Wal-Marts we already have 4 within about 15 minutes, our mall is already having issues keeping stores. The one outside of the mall is one massive location I cannot see any other retailer taking on. I believe unless a Grocery store would like to open within the mall which I highly doubt will happen we are going to sit on huge empty spaces for quite some time.
i shopped at two targets this morning...one in pickering had a big sign at the cash saying no more price matches...the second target didnt know anything about that but had a sign saying they are no longer accepting returns with no receipts.
Would have been nice, but from reading I did it seems theirs are the type you can't get into!Quote:

Suddenly there are tons of Starbucks mugs and drinkware and coffee appear in the kitchen area. I guess they didn't really throw that stuff away.
I went to another Target today but got so distracted bc I thought I lost my phone. I just walk around but couldn't concentrate so I left the store, thinking I would try calling all the stores I have visited earlier. Got back to the car and my phone is on the seat...duh...it fell out of my coat pocket.
They accepted no return receipts? I got a few hassles for returning WITH a receipt. Would have never tried to pull thatQuote:
