AAAHHHH, TARGET!
Oh, the wonderful Super Target is now open in Brighton, Colorado.
It opened on Oct. 4, but they publicized that the Grand Opening would be on Oct. 8. So, of course I went on Oct. 4; but since it wasn't publicized there was hardly anyone there which was so awsome. I was expecting a huge chaotic mess, to my surprise there was hardly anyone there. It was like they opened that day just for me to have free riegn in the store. I told Jayla that this was like Christmas for mommy. I was so tempted to sit in the middle of the store and just breath a sigh of relief. Had I not needed to get Jayla to school I would have stayed there all day, wandering the beautiful isles.
The only other people that were there were mostly members of my ward. All us frugal (notice I said Frugal and not cheap) stay at home moms who are on a budget but want quality and style. Needless to say I go there now any chance I can.
I will leave quoting a lady from my ward who said it best..." When I walk in here (to Target) , so clean and nice, I forget I am in Brighton. I feel like am am part of a civilized city."

I totally know how you feel! Charlie knows that when I go to Target...just don't ask how much I spent! There's just so much that I want and sometimes I have to give in! I think we could all say how thankful we are for Target. That's awesome that you can partake in your own town now!

Fortunately for me, our local Target is terrible. I continue to go, unwilling to believe a Target could be so lacking. Is yours a Supertarget? I'm actually starting to miss the Target & Walmart we had in Billings (of all places) because I always found stuff really cheap -errrr frugal-friendly, I mean. But, that was probably the Lord's way of rewarding me for putting up with living there. ANYWAY, if your new Target is anything like Mom's then you are lucky. We were able to run in and do most of our Christmas shopping last year within half an hour & lots of it was on sale.
