Target cutting prices on thousands of items

1. >In a statement, Target said the price cuts affect approximately 5,000 “frequently shopped items,” including meat, milk, bread, fresh fruit, pet food and soda, and non-perishable products like paper towels and diapers.

   A greedy corporation is giving up potential profits, mostly on essentials? That doesn’t sound right.

2. They say they’re cutting prices. In reality they won’t cut prices.

3. No one will argue against cutting prices. But it would have seemed more altruistic if it had come before the administration began investigating major US retailers for pandemic profiteering. Still probably a good PR move.

4. They’re trying to find where the line is on what they can charge. No one really thought they raised prices because they needed to.

5. Can we stop locking shit up. I’m tired of asking for help getting stuff 3 times per trip.

6. last few times I went into a target it was empty, and all the merch was fully stocked with practically zero gaps on the shelves.

7. Tell them open up some damn check out lines. There’s 20 people in line to use the only lines open – self checkout.
