Reply to comment by AceOfTheSwords in Best Walmart and Target? by tinymsv

It’s been a mess. The turnover since Covid has made it difficult to keep people working anywhere but all targets in e general have been going downhill. This target is not terrible, but it’s messy. I usually go to buy kids clothes and that section is a mess.

What’s wrong with them? They have a pretty great rewards program. They’re usually my go-to for that alone.

I used to only go to Cultivate and Good Chem. I got mad when Sunnyside bought Cultivate though. Although, I can’t be mad at their renewal discounts.

Critical Mass Solar. They are local owned and the owner is heavily involved in the process. Just finished a very large system for our house and they did great work. Give Freddy a call.

I don't really get what most of you have against the Worcester Target? Granted I've had the good sense to avoid it (and basically every store) leading up to Christmas, and I've never tried to buy perishable food items from them, but as far as everything else goes I've generally been able to find what I was looking for and check out in 20 minutes or so.

I have heard more than good, than bad about them, Ive only been there once lol /r/bostontrees seems to like them, that's why I gave it an honorable mention. Clear Sky I frequent offen case they have the cheapest Cresco cartridges and concentrates you'll find anywhere.

I'll take your word for it though, the one cured resin cart I got from them was dog shit lol

Avoid Millbury Target. And never buy perishable food there, especially chicken and beef. I’ve found rotten meat there several times since they added groceries there (I’m talking green mold!) and have reported it to employees who just leave it in the cooler. I met a Worcester health inspector once who told me something like Target brings in so much money that the town and inspectors look the other way at almost all violations. The only time the health inspectors did anything was when the Pizza Hut inside had some major issue with dirty equipment and improper food storage—and technically that was on Pizza Hut, not Target.

Lastly, I always avoid it due to one cashier being open in the mornings and the absurd amount of pallets, stock people, boxes, and rolling carts blocking the aisles. The place is a disaster! It takes forever to check out and if you ever need to return something, block off an hour on your schedule.
