If you hear the word "shopping" and automatically think "Target" then this article most likely describes you and you should continue on this reading adventure. If "Target" does not come to mind, you, too, should continue to read and learn why you need to have an obsession with Target.

Going to Target is not only meant for your shopping needs, it is also meant as a leisure activity. Now, I'm sure the creator of Target was not aiming the store to be used as a hangout spot, but there's just something about the feel of Target that makes you want to be there for hours for absolutely no reason. It's not meant as a store you shop at when you absolutely need something. If I really needed something, I would go down the road to a local store. It's also meant for the person who has absolutely no reason to be inside Target, but have ultimately found themselves with a cart full of items that they really do not need, but want anyway.

And if you've found yourself at Target, you've also most likely found yourself carrying a Starbucks coffee and/or eating something from the Target food court. Now is the time to stop lying and accept the fact that you, and others, have made their way to the food court to get a slushy or soft pretzel. We've all done it, just embrace it.

Cut to the ahhh-mazing items Target sells. If you're a girl and have never bought a bathing suit top and/or bottom from Target, you should probably reevaluate your life. Also, Target is your one-stop shop to everything Taylor Swift when she releases a new album (the deluxe version that is). It's also the perfect place for dorm/house shopping, and if you've planned out your future house decor while in their store, you're a true fan and avid shopper.

Although all of these perfect qualities have some downsides (like the decline of my bank account), Target will forever be #1 in my heart and #1 in my checking account.
