Archived Target Canada PICS

I have some pictures a friend of mine took in Target Canada 3 days before the store closes.

I guess they didn't get the stationary reset

Buy greeting cards for the rest of your life. Love the handwritten sign

I mean, might as well have fun. "Team members not included"

I did not know you could buy the safe.

Amazing. You can actually buy the walk-in cooler. And the pallet-jack. And endcaps.

Sad for the people who work, who put their hearts into getting the place open and watched it go down.
Sorry Canadian TMs that Spot didn't seem to know its ass from its elbow when it came to expanding into your country.

I asked my friend to mail me cosmetics fixtures but apparently that was on the floor that was closed.

Why wouldn't Target keep some of the fixtures? There are always stores that need fixtures and won't get them because Spot won't fulfill their orders.

Hells yeah!
When our store replaced the carts with the rubbermaid ones 2 yrs back, our old sturdy ones went to a nearby store 🙁

I'm surprised Plastiform corp doesn't want them back lol!

Looks like some merchandise can be flexed over into all that empty space. 🙂

Glad they can at least have fun with closing the stores down up there.

It was a two story floor and I think they closed one floor and condensed merchandise onto another.

My store looked about the same (we closed on Monday)...but those percent signs, holy. We would've had to rewrite them if they looked like that, our liquidator was pretty particular about the way they looked.

Here's a pic from our store the day we closed:

The giant empty space is where 'O' block used to be (our baby aisles - they took the entire block out), and N block directly ahead of that, with all the shelving still there. We were a two level store, but like the store in the original post we'd moved everything downstairs. The shelves were tilted while the second floor was still open but nearly cleared out, because guests kept leaving trash and hiding empty packages on the shelves. So they couldn't do that as much when they were tilted.

Ah yes.....the perennial Target guest is the same everywhere.

One of the comments on there:

That's really awful.
Your comment was funny though.

Nah... If it was fantasy target there would be arson.

I've been saying for years Canadians are barely more than animals. Now here is the photo evidence.
