I can't imagine going to Target to return $15 worth of items. |
Exactly. People in this thread acting like the stock on Target shelves is coming straight out of a clean room or something. |
Well then it’s the business being wasteful, not OP. |
Then I imagine you are also not a household that would go buy random small toiletries for travel. I mean seriously, it's 2024, anyone buying mini shampoos and things is hard to deal with. How do you not have small travel containers for your items by this point? And how do not feel bad buying such unbelievably wasteful products? Those have 20 times more plastic than product. And I'm not an environmental nut by any standard. |
Maybe plan ahead? Why so many left over? Don’t you know how many people are in your household and count how many travel toothpastes and shampoos you need? |

This is going to become my new ice breaker upon meeting people. I'll give them the facts and then ask for their reaction. Because I definitely would not want to interact with some of you based on your answers because it says a lot about the kind of people you are. |
Maybe she knew the item couldn't be restocked but she didn't know it could be donated? |
We know you would. Feel free to also report my post to Jeff. |
Planning ahead is making sure that you have enough so that you don’t run out while you’re on vacation and it’s more inconvenient and expensive to buy additional products. So nothing wrong with buying a few extras just in case. Additionally, you cannot control whether or not your family members decide to use hotel products instead. That would also throw off the quote Estimate”. The rigidity of some of you is astounding. |
100% These items could just have been used by OP at some point. I get free samples of products with purchases all the time. I didn't want or need them but they showed up so I will use them either for travel or at home as a one-time thing. Why wouldn't you just use shampoo or some other toiletry? |
Roll your eyes all you want. If you want to defend driving to Target to return $15 of items that will be thrown away, go ahead. |
Ok, if you can't figure out how much toothpaste you would need for a trip then buy extra and use it later! |
You are looking for the wrong solution. The correct one is to BUY LESS STUFF. |
You wasted your time and even gas for a rather low class $15 return? You hard up for a couple bucks? I’d be pretty mortified to make such a return. I’d have just thrown it away or used it on later trip. |
