Yesterday Gracie and I went on a road trip. We brought our friend M to Target. She'd never been and really wanted to see what all the fuss was about. She even took a day off work.
I was game, so off we went. I love introducing people to new shopping experiences...even if it's just target. I'm a cross-boarder shopper from way back. When my husband was in biz school, I used to take the biz wives (lame, I know) on shopping trips to Michigan. Somerset Collection anyone? Ohhh, that's a whole other post.
Anyway, back to our target adventure. I'm not a huge, huge fan, but I like their housewares and stationery department. She was on a mission for sheets. Unfortunately target was not at it's peak. It was a drag, but that's how it goes. You know how sometimes you hit it and it's a cheap, shopping mecca? Oh well.
We didn't come away empty handed. I got some Amy Coe crib sheets and a halloween costume for Gracie and M went to town in the halloween boolevard section.
It was fun to get away and have some adult conversation too. The trip just flew by. It was a great girls day. We already have plans to do it again soon.

was the Halloween section decent?
I might be down that way on Sunday, do you think it's worth popping over the border?
Fun. I am soooo jealous. Never been to Tar-jay? You had to take her as a public service.
I could not believe the Somerset Collection the first time I saw it. I was living in Windsor for work and had been to the Windsor mall looking for the Gap. No Gap in Windsor. I guess you can imagine how excited I was to discover the state side shopping.
petite gourmand, here's my run down on target.....
aisles of candy treats ($15.00 for two bags of regular size chocolate bars), pumpkin lights, goulish creatures for the lawn, costumes ($14.99)....
ahhh love target! can't help it. so, when were you at butler's? do atique and maha no longer own it? email me anytime...
That does sound like fun. I have never been to Target either ... maybe I need to plan a road trip like that soon too :)
