20 Tweets for Parents Who Love Target Like One of Their Children
Listen. Target isn’t just a store. It’s a lifestyle. We go there for toilet paper and tampons, sure. But we stay for the aesthetic, for the stuff we didn’t know we needed but desperately do, for the joy of mindlessly roaming the aisles. Those big red carts aren’t just to wheel our treasures to the cashier. They’re a beacon, a symbol of this amazing place we have, of the possibilities and dreams within its walls. Parents who love Target know what I’m talking about. Play dates at Gymboree are a thing of the past; we bond with our mom friends at the big red bulls-eye. If you’re one of these parents, you will definitely connect with these tweets on a different level.
Parents who love Target tend to REALLY love it. I have 3 kids: my two girls, and the bulls-eye.
For anyone who says parents can't have Friday night fun, I'm at Target right now buying toilet paper.
So, yeah, you're right.

How to get your kids to stop coming with you to Target:
Son: Mom, can you buy this for me?
Me: I'm not your Mom.
Son: Mom, stop.
Me: Let's go find your Mom.
Son: MOM, STOP!
Me: SECURITY!— Sarcastic Mommy (@sarcasticmommy4) December 3, 2017
Target is our happy place, and kid sometimes put a real damper on it.
My preschooler just asked me if we were going to pray to Target today and now I’m thinking he’s really on to something.

Me with kids at Target: why can't everyone be more patient and understanding?
Me without kids at Target: get out of my damn way with your annoying kids.

Going to Target without your kids is like a spa day! And then you show up and there are kids at the spa. WTF.

Husband: Just go to Target by yourself. I'll put the kids to bed.

This is the equivalent of … OK, so nothing really compares to this. That husband is gettin’ some tonight.
Me, to my daughter: You can like anything you want. Ignore gender stereotypes.
Also me, to my daughter: You have to love Target. Those are the rules.

When future anthropologists study mom culture, I hope they can fully comprehend the joy of a kid-less Target run at 8pm.

Every. Damn. Time.
Other Mom: I finished back to school shopping weeks ago
Me: I went to Target but couldn't remember why I was there so all I have is wine

Are you even a mom if you don't pull a crayon from your purse to sign your receipt at Target?

I ran into Target to buy pencils & accidentally spent $257.63.
Long story short, my husband says I'm not allowed to go to Target anymore.

Seriously! They must pump something through the air vents.
People who aren’t used to being in Target:
There are rules. Stay in your lane. The left lane is for passing only. Enjoy the popcorn. If the mom in front of you is smelling candles, be patient. Your turn is coming soon. Smile at everyone, this is our church.

I go to Target to forget my troubles and everything I needed to buy.

The bad part about going to Target by yourself on a Saturday night is…
…
…
…absolutely nothing. It’s one of the world’s purest joys.— MyMomologue (@MyMomologue) November 5, 2017
Remember when we had lives and we actually got dressed to go out on Saturday night? LOL me neither.
I'm looking for a woman. All I know about her is that her name is Ali she's a mom and lives in Burbank and she's shopping in Target rn and said it'd only take 10 minutes but it's been 30, and she's also married to me. Twitter do your thing.

“Hello, 911? I’d like to report a missing person. And a missing Red Card. Yes, this is a real emergency.”
The best part of shopping at Target is the convenience. And that at least one mom always looks more frazzled than I do.

My wife: We only need one or two things here at Target…so why don’t you go ahead and grab a cart.

I don’t know why they even have those hand baskets. Who only gets enough stuff for a hand basket?!
I think Time's person of the year should be the mom in Target I saw that was singing Daniel Tiger's theme song without her kids with her.

Don't waste m- omg look jack-o-lantern tea towels!— Lurkin' Mom (@LurkAtHomeMom) September 13, 2017
I have those tea towels, they’re fantastic.
I actually said to myself the other day, “How awesome would it be if Target delivered?” But then I thought about it, and realized that would be a disaster. Part of the fun of going to Target is GOING to Target. Parents who love Target get that, and appreciate it. Never change, Target. We love you just the way you are.
