Target, stung by the migration of its customers elsewhere, pledged Tuesday to spruce up some “tired” stores and make other investments in its business after delivering weak quarterly results and an outlook far below what analysts were expecting.
The retailer’s profit for the quarter that includes the holiday season fell 43 percent, with strong online sales failing to offset weaker business at its stores. Target’s stock tumbled more than 12 percent, and other retailers dipped as well.
Target said it will spend $7 billion over the next three years to remodel more than 600 of its 1,800 stores, speed up its expansion of small-format stores, bolster its online operations, and launch new brands. The company usually spends about $2 billion a year on such capital investments. …

More genderqueer associates?
LOL. Those pesky “migrants”.
Perhaps instead of investing millions, they could invest in a hundred bucks worth of paint for bathroom doors that say “FEMALE ONLY”?????? Just a thought!! (Man are these guys stupid!)
Asspress knows why people have flipped off the Transgender Club. They are propagandists not the least bit interested in truth.
Back in the 1990’s Target had a queer reputation. I avoided it like the plague...and still do.
Let’s see...

I’m certain that I have forgotten some other pros and cons.
I imagine most of that $7 billion will be spent on adding gender-confused bathrooms for non-existent gender-confused customers (because, you know, they are special and wouldn’t be caught dead outside of Nordstroms). But hey, remodeling the tired’ stores ‘for the customers’ sounds more pc, I guess.
Very expensive policy
I might shop there again.

When the sign over the door is ‘clearance’ and/or ‘going out of business.’
Forgot open-to-anyone ladies’ rooms.
Remodeling? Glory holes in the girls’ bathrooms?
Bingo!! John 8:32.
All Target had to do was change the name of the family washroom to single use and say they met the concerns of the gay community that way.
I’m in Canada and I can guarantee that every former Canadian Target employee is overjoyed the company failed before they made this policy in Canada as well so they didn’t have to uncomfortably enforce it.
I figgered that the pro-tranny label covered that.
;-)
I was also amazed that with three Asspress bootlickers writing this nonsense, they still couldn’t get near the real truth.
It’s the bathrooms. Signs are cheap to change. A few ads, a couple of heart-felt apologies, and some of us MIGHT come back. Else you are toast.
Journalism is dead.
That is not their objective. As I have said many times: “never let the truth get in the way of the agenda.”
Heck i bought a marlin 336 c and a ruger 10-22 back in the late 70s
