    Archived AAR/Resale people

    At our store, we have about 4 groups of resellers who come in to buy our core items, especially those that come with gift cards without buying attachments. They would then use the gift card on the next item, so on and so on. Our STL got fed up with them buying us out and not buying...

    Archived Flow-electronics battery shippers

    In a perfect world, the battery assortment shippers would continue to be back stocked since probably 99% of those shippers are destined for an upcoming sales planners. It's extremely frustrating to set those idiotic electronics sales planners that have 5 shelves of batteries in vendor specific...

    Archived So spot never sent my W-2

    Team members at our store had until 2:30pm, Jan. 30th to pick them up in store if they hadn't signed up for the electronic version. Our HRTL was mailing those that hadn't picked them up by the deadline since by law they have to be mailed no later than January 31st.

    Archived Faith in Humanity restored (Questions on Gratuity)

    At our store, we are never allowed to accept tips or gifts from guests. Even if they make a purchase and they receive a promo gift card and decide they don't want it or forget to take it, we are never allowed to keep them. If the guest is very insistent that we take, we were told to politely...

    Archived New AAR category?!

    Wiis and the WiiU are also separate now. The first week Playstation was a single category. Now PS3 and Playstation handheld are separate categories. I think they've re-classified cell phones as prepaid only now. If Target mobile sells an attachment with a contract phone, I don't believe it...

    Archived Target Toy Book

    We got our box of catalogs sometime this week. They are for store use only. The only way anyone can get one is with their local Sunday newspaper (should be soon) or it will be mailed to those on the mailing lists. Usually we get hard copies of the coupons to put at all of the registers just...

    Archived No Halloween Backer Paper??

    The set only called for backer paper on the endcaps and certain aisles. It looks very plain and basic. Now wow factor. The tables are also very plain. Nothing underneath. We decided it seems very Dollar Generalish. What brain child decided to do away with adult costumes? We are high...

    Archived Return scan for Electronics

    FYI, If your Bluray Discs are backstocked in the plastic keepers, they must be removed before they are sent back. Typically we send back a ton of blurays, so it is extremely time consuming to remove them from the cases. Also before you start scanning the wacos, there are several labels...

    Archived Electronics Attachment Rate

    If you are keyed into JAS as an Electronics team member, you are or should be getting incentive pay. At our store my Electronics Team Members are getting an extra $.50 and hour to "upsell" attachments.

    Archived DVDs going clearance now

    The message board essentially said that 34 dvds were going to be marked down via a clearance price change. It said to place them on an electronics clearance endcap. They are supposed to go salvage on the 23rd or 24th of Feb.

    Archived AAR - Accessory Attachment Rate

    Service plans are only one part of the AAR formula. I forget the exact equation, something like Actual item (i.e. camera) x # of eligible attachments + # of SR/P/100. So the more SR/Ps you sell, the better that portion of the formula. During the SR/P training we went to last year, the rep...

    Archived It's happening again! (Nintendo Wii U)

    We had about 10-15 presell cards for the black WillU and white WiiU. We sold out of the black a couple of weeks ago and still have about 5 of the white cards left. We received our demo yesterday. Our Nintendo rep came in last Friday and said our store should only expect to receive about 5-6...

    Archived Sexism by Guests?

    Whenever the female Electronics TMs call for TL assistance with a guest in Electronics, we have come up with a look that indicates that the guest won't deal with a female to answer questions they are completly capabale of answering, I always tell the guests I'm not completely positive I could...

    Archived Does Target really hate overtime?

    My store is dishing out OT to flow like it was candy. Several team members are approaching the 15-20 hour range, yet they want to cut dayside hours. It has been this way for almost three weeks.

    Archived Being questioned by STL

    Also the AAR report that generates every Thursday is "supposed" to be a 4-week average. You can also see how you are doing for the previous week by downloading the new Weekly Huddle form that generates every Thursday also. Make sure you chose the correct weeks huddle form and change the store...

    Archived Being questioned by STL

    The only items that count towards the accessory attachment rate are those items that are "attached" to items in the Electronics Department (tv's, cameras, GPS, video game systems/games, etc.) S/RP's sold on items in toys and small appliances don't count towards the AAR, just overall sales. The...

    Archived Prepaid iPhone 4/4S starting tomorrow

    Next weeks Electronics Champion News says that the phones will be rung on Target's POS, but must be activated at the Target Mobile POS. It also says because they must be activated by the Target Mobile rep, they MUST be sold by the Target Mobile Rep. Our AP team says their communication says...

    Archived leaving money behind

    At our store, the GSTLs/GSAs pull all of the money (except coins) and replace it with Start Funds everynight when we close. They also said the same about it being secured like the safe unless the drawer was not closed properly.

    Archived Call buttons and other misc questions

    Found out last that there are several codes on the list that have missing .wav files on Target's servers. We tried to set up a new callbox in electronics but all of the codes we tried would not work. Called 701 and was on the phone for an hour only to find out that the files were missing. Of...

    Archived Deer - Guest collision

    We had a guest trip on absolutely nothing (invisible rock?) on the sidewalk outside the GM door and fell flat on her face, causing a bloody mess. The LOD and AP inspected the sidewalk, no debris, cracks or anything for her to trip on. They had to pull video and fill out an incident report...
