Target Shopping Update!

It has been pouring rain all day here in Massachusetts, but I did manage to venture out this morning to find some Liberty of London things at Target. I actually went to two different Targets! First, I went to a larger one further away because I figured that because it was a larger store they'd have more inventory. They did have quite a lot of items interspersed in displays throughout the store, but even at 10am much had been picked over - flip flops, umbrellas, a lot of gardening items, were already gone! I spied at least a few women loading up their carriages with tons of stuff. So much so, that I kind of suspect they might have been planning to resell them elsewhere (perhaps on EBay at a higher price?). I found a dress, two tops, a pretty pillow, and a rain hat.


The dress was a bit too big, but I bought it anyway because it was nothing that a tailor couldn't easily fix. Feeling like everything was kind of picked over in the first Target, we decided to stop at another smaller one closer to home. Surprisingly, that one had much more in stock. A lot was gone there as well, but they had plenty of clothing so I was able to find the dress in my size and the second store had a big display of pretty stationery, gift bags, and candles. My mother found a set of mini-journals with different patterned covers (3 sets of 3 journals in coordinating colors) for about $7.99 - definitely a good value.

Of course, I'll have to return the dress that's too big this week but it was definitely worth going out in the rain this morning!

I hope you're having a sunny Sunday!

Glad you had good luck! I found the same thing, the smallest Target had the best selection. I did get the same pink dress and I found it very flattering on.

Tough day with the wind and rain today!
