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

Anonymous
$0 but I spend a fortune at Costco. I get practically everything I need at Costco and a small weekly Peapod delivery for veggies. I did go to Walmart today for an assortment of random stuff: Nair, hairbands, 2 baking dishes and PowerAde Zero for my husband.

Zero. But I buy most toiletries from Avon, and housewares from Amazon prime. And I guess per month it comes out the same.

I just spent $140 about an hour ago... went to pick up an Rx, get diaper cream and juice boxes... but I knocked out some Christmas shopping for the kids (and a few decorations for the house) so at least I'm almost finished with that.

Amazon Prime. It is too easy to throw things in my cart willynilly in Target.

I just spent $400 in one trip at Target. Had to take care of 3 birthday parties (including my DC's own birthday), basic groceries (milk, yogurt, bread, coffee, cereal), and tracked down to Target for the best price for an artificial Xmas tree that we're going to use in the formal living room this year. I got some extra lights for the tree and a tree skirt. But that was it. For $400. I used some great Cartwheel coupons and a $10 gift card, but it still sucks.

Wow, $25 maybe?

I hardly ever go there, no real reason. We get paper goods at Costco and groceries at wegmans/Asian grocery and stuff like headphones/ electronics on amazon

I go target once in a blue moon if I'm near one and need something.

I rarely shop at Target so I'll say $0.

$25 every once in a while. Costco for a lot of things and I order soap etc online so I never run out. Our target is not convenient for me anyway so I don't go.

Every time I walk into Target I spend $100 at least. I don't know what happens. It's like, hypnotism or something. It's beyond my control.

Nothing. I get whatever I need at the local grocery store or online.

Because it's a one-stop shop. Sometimes it's easier to make one trip and buy groceries, office supplies, a birthday gift, paper towels, and a picture frame in one place rather than going to four different stores. That said, I now avoid Target because I always pick up one or two more things I don't need. And it adds up.

$800-$1000 per month. Groceries, cleaning supplies, pet needs, kid needs, baby needs...

I spend quite a bit there..but what are the things you don't need. toothpaste? TP? socks? Groceries are often cheaper than Giant. I find it a very productive trip even if the things end up on the shelf for a while. I guess if you have a kiddo with you and buy toys or junk food...
