Just read an article on The Toronto Star online where they have the list of the next batch of Target store closings on it. The only local one that I saw was the one in Ancaster, it is closing on April 1st.
I do not know if that means that everything must be gone by the 1st or if they just move whatever is left to a different store. But come April 1st, the one in Ancaster is done.
So if you are out that way, maybe pop in and see what is left or not left and let us know!!!
Brother went last night to get Stouffer's Bistro items and Eveready batteries. He got 2 of each and the discount for each category was 50% off.
When I was there last week, there were about 4 racks of Ava & Viv plus women's clothing (tops and bottoms) in stock on Thursday. I assume that though the prices ended in .99, the card showing the 40% discounts on whole dollar amounts would apply to the clothing in that line as well. There lots of Jamie Oliver Pink Himalayan sea salt grinders (same size as McCormick glass bottles), three of the BBQ spice and one of the Szechuan spice blend. Did not scan items for pricing. Be sure to check cookie Best Before dates-saw Sep/14 dates on one brand in green boxes on the shelves.
Upper James, Waterdown and Queenston close April 2nd as well
Gosh! I was hoping that Upper James and Queenston might last after Easter. Thanks for the update, @mollyh !
Yesterday, saw two dumpsters and three contractor trucks at the store site. Not sure if they were clearing out the store for the owner or is it prep for another store moving in?
I've heard it's going to be a Winners/HomeSense/Marshall's, and Upper James is turning into a trampoline gym...I could be totally wrong though
@spanishpoet - you seem to have good intelligence on the area so let's see the megastore come along. Will miss the red and white decor though.
ooh, I would love one of those trampoline gyms in this area, hopefully that's true.Quote:

Honestly I miss Target all the time as well! Many Wednesdays were spent browsing around there that's for sure...
woot, it's true! DD will have a blast, we went to one of those places in Mississauga for a birthday party and it was awesome :)Quote:

I did not want to use a trampoline in gym class in elementary school. Could be time to check out the new place after it opens and get going on having some fun.
Crane outside the location and three dumpsters. Looks like the interior got removed. (sniffle :bawling:)
Demolition crane was taking down the overhang yesterday. Fencing was in place along the front of the building.
The Flying Squirrel weblink shows a countdown of 84 days plus for Hamilton!
Hamilton's Flying Squirrel website will be open in 6 more days. http://flyingsquirrelsports.ca/hamilton-ontario/
Looks like Ottawa is getting their own location as well.

The Ancaster store location has two big openings in its brickwork (former entrance and about 2/3s west of that entrance), as seen yesterday while travelling by bus back from Lime Ridge Mall.
Sign in the greenspace by sidewalk indicates DSW (Designer Shoe Warehouse) will be opening in the fall and hiring is now on via website. http://www.dswcanadacareers.ca/
That explains the Town Shoe store closing sale (as DSW is connected to Town Shoes) in the Meadowlands.
New sign on former Target Ancaster property indicates it's owned and managed by Effort Trust. Three of the store signs are TJ Maxx entities: DSW, HomeSense and Marshalls (does that mean Ancaster gets its own store or the Upper James one will come here?). There was an empty fourth spot on Thursday night.
Today I noticed a blank white sign in the empty spot. Likely where we will see a future Winners sign-building has four storefronts (one has full glass installed, other three are in progress).
To those SC members who called correctly on the HomeSense & Marshalls store sites going to the former Target site, you are correct!
The Flying Squirrel location in Hamilton still does not have any exterior signage nor a mall sign as of Thursday.
