I purchased a $22 dishtowel which the cashier rolled up and handed to me. I asked for a small bag…read more She said that is an additional $.50 charge--for a small sandwich size bag. Ridiculous. I then went down the street and purchased an $8 item and got wrapping and a bag included in the price. Won't be shopping at Stainton's anymore.

My 3 friends and I had a ball checking out each little pocket of stores. And happily they even have a restroom! In January there were a lot of sales, too.

I drive out of my way just to shop at the Target in Somerset, NJ from about 25 minutes away because…read moreit's by far one of the best and most organized Targets around, at least for me personally. What really stands out is that if something says it's in stock online, it's actually there in the store. That might seem like a small thing, but for me, it's huge. There's nothing more frustrating than making the trip to a store, only to find out the item you need isn't available. Somerset's Target gets it right, and that reliability keeps me coming back. The store itself is clean, well-organized, and always stocked with new items. The clothing section is a standout--everything is in order, the selection is great, and they consistently have smaller sizes like smalls and extra smalls, which is practically a miracle. On my most recent trip, I picked up winter boots, tights, and new undershirts, all of which were exactly what I needed. For basic wardrobe essentials, this is the place to go, and the prices are reasonable for the quality you're getting. It's not bargain-basement cheap, but the value is there--these are items that will last, which makes them well worth the price. The makeup department is another highlight. It's well-lit, spotless, and incredibly well-organized, which makes browsing so much easier. You can tell the staff takes pride in keeping everything tidy, and it really enhances the shopping experience. Speaking of the staff, they're actually helpful here--not just pointing in the general direction of something but genuinely making an effort to assist. That level of service, combined with the quality and selection, really sets this location apart. While I do wish they stayed open later, I understand that's not something the local team can control. Even with the earlier closing time, I'll continue making the extra trip to shop here. Somerset's Target consistently delivers a better experience and excellent value, and it's well worth the drive. I Highly highly recommend going to this Target !

In a perfect world you would try and avoid coming here as the prices are whack and the only way you should consider anything here a "deal" would be if you make the mistake to try and buy it on the boards. My sister in law bought four beach towels and a beach bag here and dropped a Benjamin in the process. I mean sure there were some cheaper towels but of course they had a thickness that bordered on being translucent. If you're of an old enough vintage and can remember going to a Woolworth or a similar 5 & 10 then the initial old funk odor when you walk in the front door will bring back many memories. If you're rental is nearby and you don't mind paying extra for one or two things then I suppose Hoy's isn't too bad but if you need a laundry list of things then make the trip out to Target in Mays Landing. While not as unique or funky as Hoy's it's also a hell of a lot less $$$.
