AAAGH The customers here are so terrible [my general experience with Targets] Like 50 - 75% of customers here were just like... I dunno... Is just the worst. Like I've never heard the word whore or bitch uttered by so many strangers while I'm looking for a salad spinner in my entire life. Like an I get called a whore a lot like; doesn't matter what I wear or what I do... Though, daaang, this place - is a lot of miserable bitches. I literally heard a mom being bitter about their child picking a toy for themselves.. Is just like... Daaaaang, this place is awfuuuuul. Like a lot of like people younger than me [I'm 29] with kids an such an I was just like... Like I felt like people here couldn't comprehend that I was single and spending money, it was so mind bending.. Albeit 50 - 75% there were a few nice customers but, dang... Unhappy place. The people working here were really nice though except for like, guy who pushes carts in the parking lot, but, like, whatever. AND I found the salad spinner and stainless steel cookware - albeit not a lot of stock but, wow! I wish people here weren't so gawd awful but, because of that I won't plan to return.. read more

Five stars for Brian (I believe he might be a manager) for going above and beyond to fixing my issue. The original employee that helped me said the issue couldnt be fixed and that a manager couldn't fix the situation either but Brian saved the day. So big thank you and much appreciation for the help. read more

I prefer Target over that other store that starts with a "W" because it seems to be a kinder, gentler company, especially when it comes to those smaller mom & pop businesses. So, I shop here instead of that "other place". This is, or seems to be a pretty large store with a large variety of various items to choose from. I can only think of one time they didn't have what I was looking for. The parking lot is HUGE, but the lanes are only wide enough for one car. So if some idiot stops to wait for anyone to pull out of any space, instead of going to the next isle over where there are plenty of empty spaces, you are stuck and have to sit there. ARRRG! Idiots in the parking lot aside, the staff has always been pretty friendly and generally helpful, though it's not always easy to find a person in a red shirt to help. In contrast, I found it really interesting just HOW MANY people work in department stores in Asia! When I was in the Philippines, every department store I visited had one person in EVERY SINGLE SECTION OF EVERY ISLE!!! WOW! Granted their labor rates are extremely low by our standards, but still! OK, I've gotten slightly off track here, back to Target. The store is usually pretty clean, generally well stocked and the prices are pretty good, which I appreciate. Once I complete my shopping and head to the checkout registers, I always encounter lines. It would seem I've become increasingly intolerant when having to wait in line for something. Hmm, maybe I need to get laid. OVERALL: I want to support businesses in the small city which I live and it's nice to know my small city has its own Target! read more

I have been to many Target locations. This one by far is one that has always provided me with great service and cleanliness all around. There really isn't much more than can be said about this Target except for what I just stated. Lines here can be long but move fairly quick. Located right by 405 freeway Atlantic Ave. exit, this Target is 2 stories with much to offer. It does get packed, especially during the weekend. Parking is plentiful. This is the Target that I frequent the most whenever I am in the LBC. read more

I don't have a striking opinion about Target. But a funny thing happened after the remodeling of this location: The food court is now directly in front of the checkout. Nice move, Target? Depends how you look at it. It is in the same spot...the checkout stands changed direction. This was either a security move or it is Target's chance to get a little bit more of your money as you leave. You either didn't notice it was there before, or you wish you didn't, now. . Meh, everything else looks the same. read more

I'm pretty loyal to the Target on Bellflower Blvd., despite the bustling traffic to get in and out it's a good Target and its close to my place. The Target that's on Atlantic was like the red-headed step-child of local retail. (No offense to any red-heads out there.) This Targetis located off the main street and is obscured by this creepy darkened lot with a cell-phone tower. If it wasn't for the towering signage near the freeway, you may never know it was there. Anyhow, several months ago this Target was closed and hardly anyone noticed or cared. Tonight I was in the neighborhood with a little time to spare and stopped in. I was surprised it was open again. Then I walked inside. It was like the promised-land of local retail. I think I may have heard angels singing. The inside of the store has been completely renovated, seems as though the aisles sparkle with newness. The food court looks worth-while with a Pizza Hut and a Starbucks....good way to energize yourself while shopping. This Target my be my new top-pick. It's hidden and not as much traffic as the Bellflower location. Don't tell anyone. read more

This location is alright, parking is usually horrible and the store seems to always be messy. Customer service is good. However tonight I was doing last minute holiday shopping and these two female employees acted as if I wasn't even there. They started to complain about how much they hate their jobs and the customers. Then one of them stated loud enough for everyone to hear her personal business: she may be pregnant and its unplanned. They went on to discuss drama and ignored my horrified expression. This was very unprofessional and they made me extremely uncomfortable. read more

I've recently gotten back into using coupons and target has become a favorite because of the clearance items, target coupons, target cartwheel deals and the promotions for $5 or $10 gift cards when you buy a certain amount of items or quantity. If your a couponer and shop at Target then you probably remember the "pantene" deal a month ago...We got coupons... Buy one shampoo and get a conditioner or styler free (up to $4.99) and Target ran the promo of buy 3 pantene items get a $10 gift card back...AWESOME deal but when I went all the products were gone. I did finally get he chance to do the deal once. But by this point the coupon police came out in full effect. They seem to think people were stealing the items or getting too good of a deal. After this Pantene promo, every single purchase you made using coupons the cashier had to call the cashier lead, manager, asst (whatever you wanna call them). They came to your register when they were able to, they had to inspect every coupon and every item and then they would have to scan the coupons. Tedious but ok I can deal with that. Went in today bought 3 Axe body sprays, 3 head and shoulders, and 2 Gillette shave creams. I had coupons for each item. They were manu coupons so no forges. Manager came up to register and informed me that as of 2 days ago they changed their policy and we are now allowed to use ONLY 2 coupons per DEPARTMENT. Per DEPARTMENT???? Really? So since all my items were from the personnel care department I couldn't use more then 2 coupons. Come on TARGET....Really???? I understand if you hate couponers and I understand if you think we are stealing. But in actuality we are spending money, we have legitimate coupons, we are not stealing or doing anything evil or illegal . Here are a few things about coupons MAYBE Target store leads/managers and non couponers don't know. 1. For every manufacturer coupon I give you...you get back .08cents. Lets say your store receives 1,000 coupons a week. That's only $80 bucks but when you add that to lets say 200 stores that little $80 bucks turns into $16,000. That $16k turns into $832,000 thousand for 52 weeks. That's pure profit...Your not losing a dime. 2. Target promotions are supported by the manufacturers. You didn't think Target just decided to run a Dove promotion just because they wanted to. No!!! The makers of Dove (P&G) I believe tells Target ("we are going to pay you this amount of $$ to advertise our products and move them off your shelves"). So not only does Target make money off the coupons but your also getting paid by the product company to promote their items. 3. IF Target is offering their cartwheel discounts, store coupons and mobile coupons then i'm thinking maybe they want people to take advantage of these discounts. 4. Most couponers aren't trying to take advantage of your store. I can't speak for every coupon user but I can speak for myself and many who I have talked to and blogged with...We coupon because it saves us lots of money. I have a family of 5 and I have to support them on one income. Using coupons saves me thousands of dollars. I'm saving money and i'm coming into your store to spend money, even though it's a lot less then a non couponer is spending...i'm still spending my money in your store. I understand if you need to have your managers check every coupon...It sucks and takes a lot of time and irritates those customers behind me but I can live with that. What I don't understand is this 2 coupons per Department....This is a really bad policy. Your going to lose ALOT of loyal customers and I hope you lose money so you can see that even with coupons...we still spend money. Shame on you Target in Signal Hill. I had to take my business to your Lakewood store. read more

This target location is one I never come to...I was in the area and decided to drop in after years of never shopping here. Now I remember why...the parking lot set up is a rat trap. One way in and one way out if you survive the clowns and their crazy driving that is inside the lot. Its almost like being casted for SAW. Once you fight for a parking...you are met by a store that has been ransacked by savages. I feel sorry for the staff that works there. At least the customer service was rather good as the cashier was nice and helpful. read more

Why does this target have so much trash everywhere? The inside is fine and the employees are great. But the AC doesn't work well and the outside perimeter of the store has every kind of trash you can imagine. Management needs to get this cleaned up! read more

This location is closest to my job, so I go often. Even though I don't LOVE this specific location, I am a Target shopper-aholic! When trying to figure out how many stars to give this local, I had a really hard time. On the one hand it *IS* Target, they're all pretty uniform in inventory. Except this one is tiny, and not well manned at all if you ask me. No garden center, and the Halloween area is missing basically everything I was looking for. It did have some cool stuff, just nothing practical. Overpriced trinkets yes, cool party items, no. When checking out I always notice the quick "10 items or less" line is either 8 people deep or not in use at all. But at least it's not Wal-Mart.. *shutter* read more

Not as big as the Bellflower location, and with a parking lot longer than it is wide, which provides the great potential of having to walk far from the store in the dark by yourself. Safe! Inside, the store's nice, and HOLY SHIT, instead of pretzels and hot dogs, there's a Pizza Hut and an honest-to-goodness Starbucks! Admittedly, I was temporarily stricken by the lack of Icees, but never fear, those are still there (just not obvious, and I don't know which counter you purchase one at). And Jones Soda now has an Icee flavor?! I went to a bunch of different sections around the store and found some empty racks in each one, which was disappointing. NOT disappointing was that when I ran my credit card, signed and pressed "ok," the machine didn't work after a couple tries...and instead of having to call a manager and make a big deal out of it, the cashier simply pressed a few keys and printed a paper receipt. read more

It is Saturday morning at 10 am. Why are the aisles dirty? They have not been mopped since I don't know how long. Dried dirt and spills on the floors. I have been unhappy with how dirty the parking lot and front of the store are on a regular basis. But I haven't seen the store dirty in the past. This store is not being well taken care of. I am going to move on to a different Target whose management cares to keep it clean for customers. read more

This place has great sales, but when I comes to maintaining the store it's a disaster, their is close and shoes and everything they sell their is thrown everywhere and the customers just step all over it. Also to say that there is trash thrown all over the store and in the parking lot. They have good prices here but might as well go to a store with higher prices with a clean environment for the customers. read more

This is the body of a recent email I sent to Target regarding the treatment of our family and I at this Target location tonight. I was sick and disgusted with what happened and I swear I will never visit this Target location ever again. To whomever reads this, I have enjoyed visiting the Target in Signal Hill, Ca. since around 2004 when I met my wife and this was the nearest Target to us. For 8 years, we chose to come to this Target location more than any other store around the area including Wal-Mart, Costco and Smart & Final. We would come to this Target on a weekly basis for everything we needed for our home, entertainment and, lately, groceries. But after this night, I will never return to this Target location ever. As we were leaving Target around closing time, we were waiting for a taxi cab when I noticed that my son who is 5 years old left his jacket in the store. I grabbed my son and asked to get back into the store to retrieve his jacket as it was a cold night tonight. The store clerk who was closing the doors told us that we could not and when I pointed to him my son's jacket hanging on a cart just five feet behind him, he still would not let me in to get it for my son. My five year old son who was complaining about the cold and was clearly shivering because of it. I don't know what kind of training you are giving your team members, but this is clear bullshit. The jacket was right behind him, my son was shivering in the cold and he refused to let me in to get it or even grab it for us himself. If it were my jacket, I would care less; I am an adult and I can deal with the cold. But this was a five year old boy we are talking about. And he was cold. And this team member could not do the right thing and grab his jacket for him. He kept insisting that we come back in the morning and get it from customer service at that time. If this is the kind of team member you have representing your store at that location, I must respectfully decline to ever visit that Target location ever again. If that is the way that your team members look at a 5 year old shivering in the cold and still refuse to help them, my family and I would do better to visit other stores around the area. We loved going to that Target. We loved that it was close by. We loved other members of the staff you had there. We loved that it was our one-stop shopping location for almost all of our needs. But I cannot go to a store that has team members who would do something as cold as that. I am sorry that it has come to this. Like I said before, if it was my jacket, if it was even my wife's jacket, this would not be an issue. But this is my young son we were talking about, and I will not stand for someone to treat my son like that ever. Hopefully, this email will prevent this from happening to anyone ever again. But as for me and my family, we are done with that store. And since the next closest Target location to us is farther than other shopping locations in our area, this may be goodbye to shopping at Target for the foreseeable future. Sincerely, Richard J. Cardenas read more

This target doesn't have decent parking. I always have to park far from entrance. A lot of the aisles have stuff on the floor. But for the most part, it obviously has everything you need in Target. read more

I went to Target this morning to pick up a portable speaker Braven 805 listed on Target.com for $149 (originally $179). After patiently waiting for the curly afro new team member in Electronics to help 4-5 people who where waiting after me (but more impatiently), he finally opened the glass case. I reiterated I wanted the Braven 805 and he stated it was actually $129. I asked if he was sure and to check the price tag on the shelf. Together we both saw it was on the shelf with a $129 price tag. Excited, I proceeded to the checkout line. It rang up for $179, a tall caucasian tattooed manager came to the front and more or less called me a liar. I'm assuming he did not ask the new team member in Electronics, or that team member realized he made a mistake discarded the incorrect price tag. Sucks. FYI to those still reading: Target does not price match with Target.com untill 12/3. Sucks some more. read more

I always shop here and the employees are so friendly... accept the manager named SUE. Every time I encounter her shes extremely rude and short with me. I feel like a manager should have better customer service skills and not make me feel bad for being in her store. read more

Despite the fact that I come to this Target most often (because of the convenience of being so close to my house), it is one of my least favorite locations. The remodeling is getting me so annoyed, it seems like every time I go in there everything is in a different spot. They hire less than competent morons. They've stopped carrying some of the regular products I've been buying here for years. One thing that I must mention too, a return I recently made. I bought my husband some night time dental guards (he grinds in his sleep). Anyway, we get them home, open the box, and no dental guards, the box is empty inside! So I trek back to the store, receipt in hand, and explain to the customer service gal what has happened, and I'd like a refund. She needs to contact a manager for approval. Then she comes back and says "exchange for same item only". Okay, so that's what I came here for, but the mere fact that she wouldn't refund my money and only offer an exchange when I had my receipt was a slap in the face. Were they insinuating that I took the dental guards out of the box and then try to return the box and pass the thievery off on someone else? Completely humiliating. I was so pissed, and still am. I'm debating shopping here as often as I used to. This one sucks. read more

Feeling sad about my experience with guest services. I had bought a can of baby formula yesterday and when I got home, I realized it wasn't with the rest of my groceries. I went back today, and asked if someone had found a can of formula in a cart and brought it back in the store or if they could somehow confirm that it wasn't put in the cart. They asked the cashier I think, who must've recalled putting it in the cart, and said they were able to confirm that I walked out of the store with it. And the manager said once it's out of the store they can't do anything about it. Well, there were 5 other people who visited guest services while i was waiting, and they were all able to exchange or return their unwanted gifts without receipts. So if you're able to serve them, wouldn't you be able to do something for a scatterbrained mom during the holidays? I even had the receipt and shop at that target all the time. A can of formula (Nutramigen, which is a special kind for my baby's allergy to cow's milk) makes a huge difference to me when it would only be chump change to Target as a corporation. I totally get the policies. They're legally correct of course. They could've also offered to just deduct it from my max return amount so I could've at least gotten formula for my baby. But alas, i walked out of there feeling defeated, without any empathy, and empty-handed. Lesson learned. I'll ask for my groceries to be bagged every time - something the cashiers should already be asking guests anyway. I still like Target, but this was such a bad experience during the holidays for me that I'm going to try to avoid going back to this particular one. read more

Worse Target I have ever been too!! Customer service is horrible. The lines are always extremely long regardless of what time of day.

If I could give this target a ZERO I would. I was here shopping again and the lady before me corrected the cashier about something she was charged twice for on her receipt. So once the cashier rang me up, I checked my receipt and low & behold the cashier rang me up twice for something and also items I did not have. I marched right over to the Target security guard and explained what happen to me and the customer prior, I let him know that because they had this cashier committing known errors we now have to wait in long return lines because of her mistakes. He took my receipt and went to the back after calling the manager(who wouldnt come out to speak about the issue). He later returned and explained to the returns cashier what items to be refunded on my receipt. I let him know that if this cashier did this to two customers back to back they need to let her go becuase that's theft/loss prevention issue. I also let him know that in this area its unacceptable for her to be doing what she us doing because many people in Signal Hill trust the cashiers to correctly ring them up for items they truly purchased. It was utterly shocking to me that the manager or supervisor never came out to apologize for their cashiers crooked behavior, but sent the security guard to let me know that they reviewed the camera footage and would return the money to me. Sad......... read more

I love all target stores no matter what location. I live in signal hill, so this store i patron quite often. it's close to home. they recently had a makeover at this location. it's nice but not as nice as some of the other stores. i go here to get whatever. i enjoy even the smell of the store like when u get there as it first opens. They always have what i need and the bathrooms are always clean. The food court is good, the pharmacist is helpful. i will never go to that other store, u know...the one that rhymes with calmart. that place is everything target isn't. always dirty, and attracts plenty of unmentionables. Sure, u pay a little more...but u know that ol' saying. u get what u pay for. I will forever spend my hard earned dollars at Target. read more

My girlfriend and I were browsing the home section when a worker appeared out of nowhere and politely asked if we needed help. We respectfully declined. On the way to check out, I saw that same worker helping out a family of customers and then asking others if they needed help. I identified him as Melvin from his name tag. Yo shoutout to Melvin for his attentiveness, infectious smile and great customer service to the people. Swag! read more

There's a guy here named Bryan. He is by far the best employee I've encountered. I had an issue with some prices on baby clothes & Bryan took the time & dedication to get to the bottom of my issues. He really goes above & beyond his duties. Target should definitely give him a raise & a promotion he'd be a great manager! read more

I have been coming here since I was a kid, back to the times when Target had their games section all the way to the right, and my brothers and I would play at their game station that was set up next to the toilet papers where our parents would be shopping. Good Times. In my overall experience, I have never had a problem with this Target. The staff has always been friendly and helpful whenever I needed it. Starbucks has been a great addition for me whenever I crave it at the time Im at Target. My family and I always get some of our basic needs here. Cereal, chips, clothes, detergent, and dog food. My family and I always get our dogs favorite treat here, the kind that they fight for in the middle of the night, waking up my whole family at 2 in the morning. Even other pet stores don't have that kind of good stuff. read more

Horrible drive up services! Waited more than 20 min for my order the first time. I thought I'd give it a second try a couple months later but it was the exact same thing. I waited again over 20 min.

Hey it's TARGET! With all the good and bad that entails. I call all Targets the $100 store because I never get out of there for less. Well until lately since it is now walking distance and $100 of non-electronic Target merchandise is generally more than I choose to carry. I HATE change and still get lost in the remodel but I have to say they do better job of keeping this place neat than they used to. And I don't know if it is the customer service surveys you get on the receipts or what but I always get near-perfect service at the Starbucks. read more

I love this target. This target is clean every time I visit, and I come here quite often 4 times a week maybe. The staff is always nice. I will always come here over bellflower target and Lakewood target. Bellflower is always super messy and crowded and Lakewood is just crowded always. I always find what I need and want. Some of the customers are a-holes but you will encounter that everywhere. I'm not sure what everyone here is complaining about. read more

The cashier Named Jacob gave the best customer service! He's literally the sweetest, definitely deserves a raise.

The mumbling crack head that sauntered in with a cup from home to help himself to the self serve drink fountain in the food court should have been a good indication of how ghetto this Target is. Mistake number one. The kid dressed like a Gleaming the Cube reject asking for an application with a big sign that said, "Employment kiosk" just to his left should have told me how completely inept the staff is. Mistake number two. And thinking that exchanging one recently bought, unopened DVD, with receipt, with another DVD of the same price would be easy - strike three. If you've ever seen Idiocracy, you know what kinds of automatons inhabit this planet of consumerism. If you haven't seen that movie, let me try to briefly explain at least one of these morons for you. He is the manager and looks like a less handsome George Lopez. He's the kind of manager that can only run a store that is, in most part, completely automated. If "the computer" is telling him something that contradicts logic and the receipt, this man becomes lost and useless. I put "the computer" in quotation marks because to hear him and his subordinates speak of this machine you'd think that they where talking about the all-knowing all-powerful wizard of Oz or the computer from A Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. To call the employees at this Target stupid would be an understatement, and to say that they were one chromosome short would be an insult to Special Olympians. Let's just say that an appetite for led paint and complete disregard for customer service must be requirements for employment. Stay away from this store. There is another Target five miles away in any direction. It's worth the extra effort. read more

So I found the perfect gift for that someone, and the target near my location did not carry said item (a usb christmas tree), so I went home and found a location that did. I called this target and the nice sales lady said that they had this item in stock. I hauled ass (mind you it's 9:20) from LA to this location, and lore and behold, the piece of shit isn't there. Now, I usually don't complain about bad customer service, BUT SHIT, if I call and ask if the item is in stock, provide you with the DCPI, drive 30 mins out of my way to get it and it isn't there, you bet your ass I'm pissed. So thank you, kind service lady, for giving me hope that I might finally have the perfect gift, and shitting it on the floor because you might be too stupid to check on the computer. So thank you for making me drive, waste time, and otherwise looking elsewhere. Be warned, employees might be stupid (or not know how to do their job) read more

This place is always packed for some reason..but I guess that's the case for all Targets. This Target is closest to my house and it is conveniently located near the 405 so it makes a nice pit stop to pick up snacks and whatnot before a road trip or if I need to grab something on the way home.. Parking here can be a nightmare on busy days but I like to avoid crowds so I park further away and walk to the store. This Target is nicely stocked, always having the items that I am looking for. Nice customer service and there's always a lot of registers open, especially when it's super busy. read more
