Department: Beauty Recently I was at Target and took a walk down the beauty aisle that has all of the special and more high end products. I came upon some bath foam that I am very excited to try. I love the smell of Bergamot and soaking in it for a half hour or so would be very delightful.I hope I get the chance soon!I love the look of the packaging and the bottle. It is plastic too which is

Department:Food I love that if you need to you can get several staple items at Target. At least at our local store. They have a dairy aisle, a bread aisle, cereal, chips, you know the drill.Yesterday I put some Colby Jack cheese in my husbands sandwich that I recently purchased from said cheese aisle. My favorite aisle in the whole store. God I love cheese. Anyway, I was fully expecting him to

Department: BabySo packaging is important and all, trust me- I brand companies for a living. The new and improved packaging on the Target diapers is great, and modern however I don't like the following: 1. the diapers aren't white anymore, they are blue and green dots which shows through my daughters summer clothing2. when my daughter pees the cotton immediately breaks up and she feels wet and

Department: BathI want everything to be simple these days and all white. While I am saddened by the news that Rachel Ashwell declared bankruptcy and Shabby Chic will fade away, Simply Shabby Chic will still be available at Target. For the time being. That being said, if you see something you like by the line, buy it. Buy it now.Recently I needed small towels for our girls bathroom. Regular hand

Department: Women's It is so great when you find a clothing label that you know will give you a great fit, a boost in confidence, and all at a great price. Heck, if you can grab it and go because the sizing is consistent, that is even better because that is what Target is all about. Grab and go. At least for me since I am always in there with my kids.Just recently I got an email from a very

So I have to say that while it is nice that Target is bringing back the Red Hot Shop that I so happily sung the praises of YEARS ago when I started this blog (I registered the domain FOUR years ago last week to be exact)- I am pretty super pissed that they are doing it in cahoots with another blog and not me. I could bring you daily or weekly exciting products that you should buy from the Red Hot

Department: Maternity Lately I have been seeing a lot of baby bumps. I thought I would look online and see what cute things Target has for moms-to-be these days. Unfortunately online isn't as great as what is in store so next time I am there I will go and snap some shots of the new collections.For now, this is my fave maternity top. I think it would look great on every baby bump and the color is

Department: The Look for LessYou may wonder where I got my knack for savvy shopping. It is all because of my mother. She and I have been shopping together for a LONG time. The other day she came over to watch my youngest for the morning and I complimented her on her new white enameled chain link (or braided as they are calling it from Merona's collection) bracelet. She laughed and said "Well I

Department: Red Cart RomanceThe only thing on the list was bread and cat litter. $165 later!!!!Another Red Cart Romance.

Department: Home I couldn't WAIT for winter to be over here in upstate NY so that I could get all of our boots and crap out of our laundry room (where we usually put our shoes) and store them until next fall. My goal was to clean it up and find a shoe rack to keep the mess off of the floor. I also wanted something that the 2 little girls could use and get their shoes themselves when it's time to

Department: FoodYou have seen the ads for Smartfood and the catchy packaging. Well there was a well merchandised end-cap of this yummy snack treat that I spotted during my last trip and $3 didn't seem like too much to try it out (trying it is my job anyway right?) so I did.I chose the Honey/MultiGrain one because I don't dig Cranberry which was the other flavor option. Cranberry Almond to be

Department:Kids Recently I was interviewed by a major magazine about my blog. They asked me many questions about the blog and my love for Target. One of them was if I had any certain process or ritual when enjoying my "Red Cart Romance" (going to Target)?Immediately I said "I make sure if the kids are with me that we stop at the $1 spot". Now known as "See Spot Save". Sometimes items here are

Department: Handbags For the last couple spring seasons I have been a big fan of yellow in handbags and shoes. I was excited and relieved when I opened up the May issue of Cookie Magazine and saw this slouchy hobo from Target (only $23) as a seasonal suggestion for busy however stylish moms. Like me. I checked it out in the store live and in person and it is a great bag for the price. It does

Department:Housekeeping I try really hard to keep our mudroom/laundry room a sane environment. With all of the little shoes, big shoes, briefcase, laundry etc it is very hard. I am thinking of solutions.Does anyone have this? Opinions? Oh and coming soon, more photos from my last trip to Target! Stay tuned.

Department: Stuff I HeartTimes are tough for everybody and even though Target has low prices, when I go there these days I try my hardest to stick to the essentials. Diapers, mascara with free gift of eye shadow, you know- the basics. In all seriousness though, money is super tight. I have been being good though and still enjoy dawdling around my big red box looking at lovely things to report

Department: Accessories I have very sensitive eyes. This could be because I spend 16 hours a day in front of my laptop. I can't even walk to the end of the driveway to get the mail without sunglasses. Even if it's at sundown. I need them, I wear them, and if I didn't need prescription ones I would be in really big trouble because I would own as many pairs of sunnies as I do shoes.Luckily for me,

Department: Where Is My Favorite Target Product?I love it when STT readers write me with their problems. Favorite merchandise suddenly missing from the shelves is usually the reason for the desperate email. I am happy to help as I know that many Red Shirts, Target Corp Employees and Buyers read my blog. Please help this man find his granola bars. Please. He sounds so pathetic and sad. In a

Department: DecorI just love this screen from Target. I don't love the shipping wait so I am glad that I don't need one of these, but I love it so much I had to tell you all.How lovely would it be in an apartment to break up the space? Or in a photography studio for clients to change behind etc?A canary upholstered 3 part screen. In Robin's Egg Blue. Comes in other colors.Lovely.

Department: Sponsors + SupportersIt may come as a surprise to you, especially if you are new to the blog, that I don't get paid for this.Sometimes I stroll around with my red cart and don't even buy anything. I just do it to bring you the news and views.Therefore, Supporters and Sponsors are important to me. They keep things paid for like the domain, hosting, etc. and this lovely super cool web

Department: ReviewsI haven't ever had this happen, but today I got an email from Target asking me to review the trunk I purchased last month. I think I will do it! I want to let people know that the trunk is great. It was helpful to me to have those reviews there when I went to buy it.So my question is- do you leave reviews for all of (or any of)your Target purchases?

Department: JewelryMy most recent trip to Target (yesterday when I only spent $95) I took some photos with my phone's camera of necklaces that I really like. This one is super cool and would go with so many outfits. However it is $50. That is so not fair. Maybe fair to the designer, so I don't mean that, but Target, seriously, give us a break in this weak economy! We still need to be fashionable!

Department: Case StudiesA graduate student is doing a case study on Target! Please help her out by filling out this survey- Complete this 20-question survey and enter a drawing for a Samsung Blu-ray player valued at $248. Winner will be drawn on April 25, 2009.

Department: General ShoppingSo yesterday I made it to my local Target for a little Red Cart Romance without children. This can be dangerous since that leaves a lot more room in the cart for purchases. I tried to stick to my list of diapers, birthday card, paper towels and Lean Cuisines. I somehow still managed to spend $165 which made me want to vomit.Along the way I took photos of things I

Department: Cool StuffThese days I don't have a lot of time to put together posts for my dear readers to show you all of the cool stuff at Target. I wish that I did but that is why I am so glad that FlipGloss can do it for me. I am becoming obsessed with FlipGloss. I love that their interactive Flip-Thru pages are so bright, crisp, and lively. Everything literally jumps off of the virtual pages.
