Like many Target-loving fashion-minded gals I flocked to my nearest store at 10:30 this morning with high hopes of walking away with at least 1 item from the Missoni collection, only to find this. Empty shelves, sparsely stocked racks and copious displays of greed. A pair of women muscled out other shoppers toting around 3 carts loaded with multiples of literally everything in the collection. I was so disgusted.
Didn't anyone teach these ladies how to share? Clearly these were fashion scalpers stocking up to make a killing on the resale. I chuckled when upon reaching the checkout line saw the women were being refused the total purchase. Apparently Target thought of this scenario and there is a 2 item maximum, like you can only buy 2 blouses or 2 pillows, etc. per day.
Denied bitches! Haha...
I would have felt bad for the employees who had to put the items back, but there were customers eying the commotion, ready to pounce on the coveted cartloads. I swear, shopping is like watching Animal Planet. Very entertaining.
I didn't leave the store completely empty-handed. I bought toothpaste. So exciting, I know. When I got home I visited Target's website on the off chance that they weren't already sold out of everything. Apparently everyone else had the same idea...
Bollocks...thwarted again! I waited my turn and was pleased that not everything on
my wishlist was out of stock. I ended up ordering 2 of the
zig zag print bath & hand towels plus this
pouf. The pouf is a bit of a splurge for me, but when you find something so perfect you just gotta go for it.
So that was my Missoni for Target adventure for the day.
Readers, did you make the trip to Target in search of designer-acquired glory? Any past collection stories to share? Leave a comment below!
