A 40-day Target boycott starts today. It couldn’t come at a worse time for the company (www.cnn.com)

The boycott, which begins during the start of Lent, comes more than a month after Target made changes to its DEI programs and at a difficult period for the company as it faces an onslaught of tariffs in the middle of a challenging economy.

I forgot to start shopping at Target. Honestly, what do they carry that every other department store doesn't?

Oddly the one in my town is a lot cheaper for things like Nature's Bakery bars than any other grocery store around. Still, stopped going there already and won't go back until they fix their shit.

They have a lot of board games (and special versions of popular ones) that are literally exclusively only sold at Target.

Some people might shop there because it’s closer than Walmart. Also I’m not sure what a 40 day “boycott” will do to sales.
