boycott Target Stores?
I have alway been a confirmed shopper of Target Stores the reasons for which I will not enumerate here but the biggest of which is that it isn't Walmart. But their recent boneheaded, probably lawyer initiated, decision to forbid the Salvation Army to solicit in front of their stores has me really angry. Their are few organizations which do more good for the less fortunate in this country than SA. Sadly, I have made the decision to not shop at Target anymore, or until they reverse a policy which will lead to SA not meeting it's goals this year and having to find other ways at the last minute before Christmas to make up the difference. I am not connected in any way to SA but I have always felt good about seeing them and their bell-ringers outside stores during the Season. They are a tradition which should be honored and kept safe for none of us really knows if we or someone we know might need them some day. I have called and written to Target Stores and hope that by this blog others will do the same. The address is Target Stores, Executive Offices, TFS1A-X, P.O. Box 9350, Minneapolis, MN 55440 RE: Case # 4203023 They will only change this poor decision if they think it will cost them losts of money and earn them bad public relations. I'm going to be giving my business to K-Mart. I would like to hear from anyone who other ideas about how to make Target change this policy.
