How much do you spend at Target per month (avg)?

[Anonymous]

Probably $500. It's insane.

It is so easy to spend hundreds at Target. Sucks. There isn't one close to me, thankfully.

I average a monthly trip to Target - I buy household supplies there like hygeine products, cleaning products, etc. I also buy organization stuff, some clothing, stuff for the kids (but not diapers or other baby supplies), etc., as well as groceries that are not stocked at Whole Foods. It's so hard to categorize the money spent at Target! According to Mint, over the past 2 years, we have spent about $4k just at Target, so that averages to about $170/month. Just trying to figure out if that is normal, high, low, whatever.

Zero dollara, zero cents. Can't stand the store, the crowds, ill behabed adults and bratty children. The smell of the food court is also disgusting. I feel the same way about Wal-mart. I'd rather pay full price that have to put up with any of the above.

Where are you paying "full price" for things instead of at Target?

$300-400/mo. I do a fair amount of food shopping there because it is much cheaper than Giant.

You buying your toilet paper from Nordstrom's?

About $300 but that includes all toiletries, dog food and baby formula/diapers.

I spend a lot there, in fact I buy so many things on each trip to Target that I carry a concealed handgun in case anyone tries to steal the things I've just bought.

My wife and I easily spend about $250 a month at Target, until a friend of ours showed us this cashback web site called www.DiduDubli.com and now were saving an additional 7% every time we shop at target.

Nothing now that I have Amazon Prime and the free 2-day shipping.

I go to Costco every 4-6 months for bulk items if TP, Detergent, etc.

But I spend about $300-400 week at Whole Foods because it's 2 blocks away. Sigh.

I force myself to use the last of every single bottle. It really stops me from putting unnecessary things in my cart.

Zero

There's one close by, but I don't really go there. I use Prime, Costco and Giant/Wegmans for things people people buy at Target.
