Tarzjaay opened in 1962 too ... ... On May 1, 1962, guests in the Twin Cities area wake to the news of Target's first grand opening in Roseville, Minn. Heralded as a, "new idea in discount stores," Target differentiates itself from other retail stores by combining many of the best department store features — fashion, quality and service — with the low prices of a discounter. Created as, "a store you can be proud to shop in, a store you can have confidence in, a store that is fun to shop and exciting to visit," by the end of 1962, Target opens additional locations in St. Louis Park, Crystal and Duluth, Minn.

Target originally started as a discount store division of Dayton Hudson, a major department store company. Target got so big that Dayton Hudson became Target Corporation in 2000.

Both Target and Kohls have better optics and better designers but the quality is terrible.

I am not even sure that younger people understand good quality anymore.

Not many look at Pendleton, Woolrich, et al

Bought a Pendleton wool bathrobe a little while back. It will last forever and is WARM and well-made.
