As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly

Bullseye

Laura was surprised when she saw how few groceries the nearby recently-opened Target store had. She had expected more because it was a "Target Greatland" There’s an article in Saturday’s New York Times that talks about Target’s foray into groceries and their hopes for competing with Wal-Mart. It’s only stores called "Super Target" that get full grocery stores.

I go to Target because they’re cheap, they’re across the street from Shop Rite, and I’m broke, but in general, I don’t like these huge mega-stores that combine full groceries with full discount department stores, like Meijer Thrifty Acres out in the midwest. They’re just too freaking big. You could spend a week finding your way out of one of those places.
