My confession ... I haven't been enjoying shopping at Target lately. The merchandise seems to have gone down hill. Time after time, I've gone in there only to find they didn't have what I wanted. I used to love their women's shoes, the lingere, the clothes, the household goods, the decor - not anymore. They still have a decent toy selection for the little one but I wasn't able to find everything I wanted there.

Even on-line ... last year I did the majority of my on-line holiday shopping through the Target website. This year so much was unavailable or backordered I ended up cancelling most of what I tried to order and purchased through other websites.

Sadly, the thrill is gone.

I agree with you about the clothes and shoes at target. I have never been happy with anything I have bought from there for me or the kids other than 2 cardigans which are so cute and even after wearing them for over a year they still look brand new. I havent bought the kids clothes there for at least 2 years or more. I buy it, it gets worn once, I wash it and it fades or the gets little balls on it or shrinks or the stiching comes undone. Even if I got a pair of jeans for the kids on sale for 10.00 I would get a better deal buying jeans at gymboree or gap for about the same price on clearance or using gymbucks or circle of friends and then Tyler can wear them for the entire season until he outgrows them and my youngest can use them when he grows into them. The only baby clothes worth keeping from my first where from gybmoree or gap and some, very very few from old navy. My youngest is wearing Tyler's baby jeans and sweaters and button up shirts and jammies and they literally still look like I just bought them. Targets clothes are just poor poor quality and really not any cheaper to buy for me. Just my opinion.
