Ordering system could be improved, but often have good prices
Ordered some household items, such as towels, air drying rack and pillow cases. Delivery was free as the order was over $75.
My order was marked as shipped 2 days later with some items arriving the next day, which was nice and fast.
As the delivery was incomplete (yet my order was marked as delivered), i called up their customer service to enquire as to the remaining part of my order.
They said that i had to wait a few days to see if the item would arrive shortly after, which it did (the next day).
This was a little inconvenient, as i felt that if the orders were shipped out separately for 2 deliveries, there should have been a notification and tracking for each.
More concerning was the fact that although the delivery was incomplete, my order was marked as completed. If it had happened that my item had never arrived, im not sure i would have been able to dispute it or what i would have been able to do
But overall, as all my items arrived and in good time, i would still buy from Target again
Buy new gaming titles online at good prices, due to low stock in store
Ordered an Xbox One Game and added some socks to make the total over $75 (for free delivery). It is surprising that Target can have cheaper prices for some new release games (stores almost always have super low quantities), so i was quick to make this purchase.
I received an email confirming my order on the same day, and 2 days later, an email was sent stating that my item had been shipped. a link to track my package was included in the email.
3 days later, my game and socks arrived. Overall, around 7 days from order placement to receiving my item, which i thought was a little slow as i could go in store and have my items in hand quicker. though for the convenience of delivery and guarantee of having the item (instead of trying to line up and hope they have enough stock) i was happy to wait.
i will continue to keep my eye on on target for any further titles i may be interested in purchasing
Free pick up in store with orders over $40. Some great prices for everyday products
Ordered a fleecy blanket and mattress protector. As my order was over $40, i was allowed click and collect at my nearest store. Free delivery is offered for orders over $75.
I received a confirmation email, with my item being marked as shipped the next day. Shipping is via Toll with a tracking number.
My order arrived at my chosen store 4 days later with an email confirmation sent to notify me. The email also included instructions and a barcode for picking the item up.
Happy with the whole experience, and the blanket was nice. Have yet to use the mattress protector.
Will be more than likely to purchase from Target again.
Its also great that you can register your details and fly buy card (if you have one) to collect more points for your purchase too. Makes further purchases from Target a quick(er) process.
Free delivery for orders over $75 with some competitive pricing
Bought a few Xbox games to play. Pricing was comparable to other retailers.
As my order was over $75, I received free delivery
My order was confirmed the same day and marked as shipped the next day with a tracking number. My package arrived 5 days later.
Nothing to complain about, though perhaps i would have expected slightly faster delivery times. Maybe next time, instead of having the convenience of delivery, i may arrange pick up from a local store. Thought im not sure if it will be any quicker using this method.
When it's Winter and you can't find any stores that sell swimmers at reasonable prices, Target to the rescue!
I bought two sizes of boys swimming trunks for my son at $9.60 each in order for him to try on for best fit, and also a pack of TMNT socks that were sold out in store.
However, it took two weeks for my order to be ready to be picked up in store... too long in my opinion. They can be a hit and miss with order readiness.
I returned one pair of trunks in store that didn't fit him, not questions asked, too easy.
I like to research a whole bunch of products before I buy them online. I wanted a new hair curler and a few blogs suggested that the thin ones were better than the thick wands.
So I looked for one and Target's was competitively priced so I ordered it.
I organised it to arrive in store so that postage was free, and then gleefully took it home. Unfortunately it was pretty average and I don't use it much.
Some stores seem to have super vigilant buyers who find amazing products at bargain prices. But I don't think target is one of those stores: I think the cheaper prices reflect cheaper quality.
If you have researched the item you want, for instance brand-name items, and it is cheaper at Target, I can recommend their quick and transparent service. But for cheaper products, I think you can buy a better quality bargain elsewhere.
I would only shop at target online again if I were buying things I was very familiar with.
