Target Disaster:
1) Both the up and down escalators were off...not just off, but cordoned so patrons couldn't use them to even *gasp* go the old fashioned one-foot-in-front-of-the-other route.
2) As a result of #1, the elevators were jam packed.
3) They didn't have the chair I wanted (and so am sitting in this uncomfortable thing that causes major back pain..
4) I bought the wrong battery for my phone (this one's not Target's fault. It's mine for forgetting to bring the bad battery with me).
5) The only frigging size T-shirts they had in white were XS and XXL.
6) Flats are in and I want a couple pair. Everyone else has cute ones...Target's selection was abysmal.
7) So many mirrors up, which revealed my nasty fat-girl arms at nearly every turn.
8) My debit card was declined, despite me having deposited a my bi-monthly pay in the account...and the fact that I rarely let my balance go beneath $300.
Y'know, it was experiences like this that really make me miss Minnesota. In Mpls./St. Paul, the Targets are everywhere and they're all good. I don't like driving miles for unsatisfactory shopping.

I like that Seattle's a small town. There are plenty of street parking spaces, lots and or ramps in the downtown area and the further out you go, the more likely the store will have it's own parking.

I've totally given up on Target, because even though there are a couple, they're just crammed silly with people morning to night. Very often, I find I don't even pay anymore by shopping at drugstores and other shops that are much more convenient - and often in walking distance from my apt.
