For one brief, Camelot type moment there was with one of my last 2(OK, 3) real, living friends coming by tomorrow. Then I had to go and think. I better watch a movie or I'll bum the whole site out.

I had to run to Target for just a couple of items at lunch, and every single associate that came my way made eye contact, asked how my day was going, and if I was finding everything okay.

It's been a long time since I've seen exceptional customer service like that anywhere. Oftentimes, they don't make eye contact so they won't have to deal with you.

I asked to fill out a comment card - the young woman at the service desk thanked me for taking the time to stop and do that.

Way to go, Targeteers!

I know, I know...what conflicted times we live in. Well I don't think the original error was a setup, but once somebody realized what happened, the best move is to make it right... and contact the press.
