Today, I reached the point in my life where Target is the "expensive" store. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Good night!
Today, Target asked me if I would do the closing announcement. I've only been working there a little while, so excited I agreed. I told people, "The store is now closing, thank you for shopping at Walmart." FML

Today, I realized I have finally turned into my mother when I got excited about using so many coupons that I only paid 70 cents for $14 worth of groceries. I need a life. FML

Impulse purchase
Today, I wanted a Stranger Things flashlight, but I saw they were out of stock at Target so I ordered one on Mercari. The Target website later got more in, so I paid double the original price with shipping included. I’m done online shopping for myself. FML

Today, I was at Target deciding what chap-stick to get when an old lady violently hit me with her umbrella and kept yelling at me saying, "You are too young for this! Think twice!" FML

Today, I wore an expensive vintage blazer which I'd purchased at a market in Paris. Turns out my colleague has the exact same one, only hers is from a clearance rack at Target. FML

Welcome to middle age
Today, I found out I've been adulting too long when I noticed that the bags at Smart & Final are shorter than the last time I was here. FML

Rip it up and start again
Today, I finally finished my Christmas shopping and felt like an absolute champion. That was until I got home and realized I'd left one of the shopping bags in the parking lot. The bag contained the most expensive gift I'd bought. FML

Today, I was at Target trying on swimsuits. I tried on a medium bottom and was so excited because it fit perfectly even though I've gained a few pounds. My self-esteem was at an all-time high until my mom told me I could never fit into a medium. I rechecked the tag. It was an extra large. FML

Yep, agreed. I think everyone has a stage where they struggle on what means they have, and if you're fortunate enough to never have to deal with that, then I think you are quite lucky, but you've also missed out on a great life lesson.

Agreed. I don't know if your in mega debt or trying to pay off school or trying to support a family, but whatevers going on, you just gotta pick yourself up, dust yourself off, straighten yourself up and go do something about it. Pick up another job or something. So don't worry, it'll be fine soon enough:)

@1: I don't know about that. My life is a lot happier since I've given up hope.

If Target is expensive I can't imagine what Wal-Mart would be!!!

Walmart is wonderful :D Well at least most of the time anyway.

Try Wal-Mart or Big Lots if you have one of those.

Wally world is getting kinda expensive too...

Print off those coupons. Rollback sales are your friends. American innovation will eventually find a way to get through this situation for you.
FarSide 23
Changing the RollBack prices yourself can sure help you save.

Big lots has regular prices. Not that great, it just all the rejected stuff

Thrift shop for clothes and buy ingredients to make food instead of packaged meals, it's more price effective.

I wouldn't recommend Big Lots. Some of the stuff there are more expensive then other retail prices.

Let's try using proper English. That's something you're supposed to learn by middle school.

Something tells me that the term "SoBeR" in your username does not describe your state of being when you typed out this comment...

so instead of websurfing better find a gud job :p
THE_A_TEEN 28
What's a "gud" job?
Shea234 7
You should probably learn how to spell before giving advise to anyone.
Senior29 8
u shud probably realize dis is the internet, not ur mom's failed abortion papers. no1sane gives a hoot abt spellings hea
bizarre_ftw 22
42 - agreed, but at a certain point it does get difficult to understand what a person is saying... Also, any chance you're not completely fluent in English? Cuz if so your spelling is justified. (just saying, it Is the World wide web so that's always a possibility...)
dd809 9
You appatenly need luck finding a "gud" job as well. I would never hire anyone who obviously couldn't pass a kindergarten spelling test.

*apparently* you should probably take your own advice

Hey, as long as Big Lots or the Dollar Tree doesn't classify as the "expensive" store.
