We were down 9/23 - 9/30/06 and drove to the Target to see if it was open. Still a lot of construction around there. Looks like it will be alone for a while. Maybe Walmart will improve cleanliness and attitudes with the new renovation and competition from Target.

Directions from 30-A?

Head east on Hwy 98 into Bay County and continue for about 10 miles. You will pass Hwy 79 (Panama City Beach Town Hall), Frank Brown Park (Huge Panama City Beach Sports Complex) and then Target will be on your right. You can't miss it. Driving time from eastern 98/30-A intersection is about 15-20 minutes.

Yesssss!!! 25 minutes to Target!! :clap_1:

But, I think I'm going to let y'all test it out first. I'm still recovering from the chunk of change I gave Target in Panama City on Tuesday afternoon. Maybe next weekend!

Who needs another store when you have Target? Except maybe Super Target ...

All you locals, get a Target card and 1 percent of all your purchases can go to your chosen school. I just started doing this. I think it applies to private and public, but the schools probably have to sign up.

I went for a look-around yesterday afternoon. A few notes:

-It's way closer than either the PC or Destin Target stores. For anyone east of Blue Mountain, it's probably the one to go to.

-I swear, I don't remember seeing anything for the beach. No towels, boogie boards, T shirts, nothing. No complaint, really, just a surprise.

-They have a Starbucks, so the entrance smells like coffee instead of the more common popcorn.

-Not sure if it's just me, but I think it may be a little smaller than either the PC or Destin stores.

  • i also did not see the tourist PCB stuff everywhere :clap_1:
  • I did see some beach chairs in the garden center, I am guessing that this is seasonal
  • starbucks :clap_1: :clap_1:
  • they open at 8:00 :clap_1:
  • i am not sure if it is smaller or not, will have to check it out.....

We went on Saturday to pick up some necessities. It was very clean, could find stuff easily and I didn't get the panic attack that Walmart gives me. :floor:

So it was good.

Went today and had a good experience. I didn't notice that it was smaller than the other Targets. It seems to be exactly like the Destin Target.

I drove by it today and my car tried to pull in the parking lot. I fought it and returned back to work without a detour. WHEW!
