Default Who is Target's grocery market?

Seems that they keep changing the foods they are selling. They'll get
something that I want and they never have it again. Lots of things on
clearance today. Lots of dried herbs and spices, but the two things I
needed were not on clearance. I did however get several packages of walnuts
that are still good for just over a year.

They have a lot more gluten free items than they used to. And weird stuff.
Some odd brand of cake mix. It was blue! Who buys these things?!

They also seem to have a lot more prepared food than they used to. Now they
sell prepared sandwiches. I scored big on sliced cheese. Last time I was
in, lunch meat was marked down. Apparently their customers want to buy
sandwiches. Not stuff to make them with.

And their produce section? It has shrunk. No more fresh parsley. In fact
the only fresh herb they had was cilantro. It looked good and fresh but it
was being sold in about twice the amount you'd get at a regular grocery
store. Even that is usually too much for me. When I use it, I only use a
few sprigs at a time and it doesn't keep super well. Yes, I do have it
dried. It's better than no cilantro.

I was sooo pleased when they first put in the grocery section. The prices
overall were low and I figured I could do a lot of my grocery shopping
there. But they seem to have less and less of the types of things I want to
buy.

Gluten Free is the buzz word right now even though most of us are not
affected by it. Of course, I'd only use gluten free toilet tissue.

Prepared food has been the biggest growing section of the supermarket
for over 10 years now. It is cheaper than a restaurant and helps keep
that expensive show kitchen pristine.

Probably because produce needs constant care to keep only fresh on
display.

There is actually discussion of this on GF forums. Someone started a rumor
that the glue used in the cardboard rolls of some brands is not GF. Same
for paper towels. Nobody seems to know which brands these are though. But
some people will not use the paper products nearest the roll just in case.
And there is one feminine product that uses wheat inside. Not a mainstream
brand but a "green" one.

It would seem so. I do buy some of it but mostly I prepare it from scratch.

That could be. They sell mostly packaged things and have no misters.

He probably said, "No food for you? Now get out"!

That it does! But I think they have changed the popcorn in the Cafe. It's
not quite as good tasting and it leaves my hands greasy Never used to do
that.

How about you make up an answer and post it in all the groups you follow
Julie to?

so you support the concept of not giving feedback to stores you shop at;
or is it that you support the concept of Julie not taking any
affirmative actions in her life?

the answer should have been: "he said thank you for asking about our
stocking policy and that while it isn't a generally simple question to
answer, we cater our products to our consumers which is determined by
demand (and sales). if you want a particular product to appear on the
shelves, just fill out this form and we will forward this information to
Corporate Headquarters and inform you of what they have determined. Once
again thank you for being a proactive shopper...so many of our customers
complain without asking first."

I'm sure he probably will. Why in the world would anyone ask a manager
that? I'm sure the manager probably doesn't know. I worked for K Mart for
17 years. They did a lot of things that didn't make sense to us a store
level. Such as getting rid of the Dollar Days items that people really
wanted. The kinds of stuff that some dollar stores sell now. People
flocked to the stores for those things. And then when we stopped carrying
them, sales dropped and complaints came in. But there was not a thing we
could do about it.

Heh! Does take a bit of doing. After the one checker gave me the 5 cent
bag discount 13 times because she forgot to ring in my $5 gift card...the
mind boggled on that one and made something like 3 other errors that made
just about as much sense, they called the security guard who then called
this woman from the photo department to try to straighten it out. I don't
think the photo lady was upper level management. She finally did call some
other guy who came from who knows where. He wound up giving me some sort of
paper gift certificates worth $9 and a big apology. Pretty sure they fired
that checker. Never saw her again.

When I worked for K Mart, I only knew who the upper level people were
because of the particular job that I had. We had satelite conferences with
them weekly. Not that they were true conferences in any sense of the word
as we were not able to give any sort of feedback. Each week we would just
sit with our mouths gaping open, looking at each other and mumbling stuff
like... They want us to do what? Or... We have to stop doing what?

The average store employee wouldn't have known any of those things.

you're sure of lot's of things, but the most important of them is that
if you have a question, never, ever assume that anyone in that
particular store would know anything

But what did the manager tell you the reason for dropping those items
was? wait, why would the manager know that?

Stuff like that just baffles me though. I only ever ran across one person
(when I was training people) who simply couldn't figure out the register.
She'd had brain damage. She also couldn't figure out how to mix up
concentrated OJ. Most registers these days are computerized and as easy to
use as a computer.

I see nothing wrong with Mal's response. If I'm looking for a
particular product, I'll always ask the manager of the store if they can
stock it.

Cheri, that was just the type of shot you condemn in others.

The market for Super Target is what Momos like to eat in Salt Lake City. Meaning heavy on Kraft Mac n Cheese..Green jello and Pepsi. They also control the store temps based on what is going out there. That is what the Mgr told me when I was looking for brisket and dry pintos in there one time..and they had none of course. Its a crazy store and they hate Christians.

That's a tad confusing! And wrong. Mormons who keep to what they are
supposed to do would not drink Pepsi unless perhaps it was caffeine free.
They are not to drink caffeine. Not sure about the mac and cheese either.

I know of a man who was raised Mormon and he ticked off a list for me of
things he would not eat because he said they reminded him of his bad
childhood. He said that his mom spent her every waking hour putting up food
for the stash that they are supposed to keep. Because of this, she had no
time to cook for her family. So she often served him cottage cheese and
canned fruit or various salads like Jell-O that she had purchased somewhere.

I don't know about brisket as I never looked for it anywhere. But my store
has dry pintos.

As for the Christian thing? Don't know. But on the one hand you say that
they cater to Mormons. And whether Mormons are Christians or not is
debatable and depends on your definition of Christian. I'm not gonna go
there.

Malcolm, she made a good point. There *are* folks who are even stupider
than Julie. WalMart stores hire them preferentially, pays them poverty
wages, then coaches them on how to get public assistance (food stamps,
Medicaid, etc.).At least they're not total parasites like Julie.

We know that Julie is smarter because she was smart enough to get herself
declared an invalid.

food/recipes, this group would be dead now.

It's Usenet - the wild, wild West. I take the good with the bad.
Everyone has their good side. I focus on that.

You encouraging him to start discussing things like polygamy and
wife-swapping borders on the stupid.

I try to talk about food and cooking/kitchen related stuff. I really
do. It's not the lack of food and cooking-related posts that will kill
this group. It's all that other crap.

OB Food: St. Louis style/cut ribs on the charcoal grill tomorrow, if it
doesn't rain.

Not talking about you specifically, but people that use killfiles
don't read all that people write. They only respond 2nd hand.
Everyone here is nice at times... even sf heheh

You're a dried up old ****, Jill. You lead a pathetic life, living at that
stupid club, and your main hobby seems to be bitching about the food. A
bitchy old lady who needs her clit licked, and it ain't happenin'.

They are twisted male supremacists who think it's fine for there to be
one male and multiple females, but not one female and plural males. The
male is always the dominant one, and any sex is only to be between the
male, and each of the females, one-on-one. Winter, Ian and Ann's
relationship would be repunant to the filthy Mormons. They're a ****ed
up bunch. I've studied their crackpot *religion*. Their racism is also
despicable.

What, "perversions," Miss Dried Up Old ****? I'm about as French

I don't think I've ever talked about "wife swapping," and the
"polygamy" thing, only Gary and Barbara would understand, because
they're the only ones here I've shared a bit of my novel with. I don't
object to Gary's term, "sex maniac," even though I'm not a maniac, just
an outlier, but I'm not a pervert. You aren't either, but if I had your
life, I'd be big as a house because with no sex to speak of, I'd
constantly be eating.

Hey, and speaking of wife swapping, aren't you the person whom, on the
few occasions you do get frisky, do so with a married man?

You don't have to killfile to not read some posters so just in case they
make a post that you might enjoy you can always read it,or otherwise skip
it.

Which means you're reading all of their posts just so you can find one
that passes inspection.

Bye bye, Gary. It's not funny or even amusing. It's crude, offensive
and also innacurate.

No, it doesn't mean that at all. If you're not reading them, they're usually
quoted by many, so if you see a sane type answer then you can go back and
read in that thread...until they deterioate again.
