Shopping

While out and about on Saturday (to get top soil for the backyard...pics soon...really this time) we discovered a new Target. We were quite confused how a brand new Target somehow sprung up 4 miles from our house without us ever realizing it. Probably because we have three other Target's within 10 miles from our house! It may become our new favorite Target due to the fact that at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon it was virtually empty.

A client of mine recently told me that Richmond has one of the highest per capita retail square footage in the country. So are they just hoping for the 'if you build it they will come' mentality? Craziness I tell you!

Why in the world do we need four Target's (and three Wal-Mart's, four Lowe's, two Home Depot's, etc) so close?? Don't even get me started on the 24 Starbuck's near our house.
