Went there tonight and we had a great time. Lot's of free food from local restaurants and lots of nice housewares, and inexpensive, but nice looking house decorations and accessories. Saw those red chair cushions that someone was asking about in another thread. It's so nice to have a better option than Walmart!

Where is the Target store located? 
Beach FanaticAuthor
It's on the north side of 98, to the east of Old Time Pottery, and the west of Big Kahunas.

We just got a Whole Foods! The busiest store in the area that I've seen in a while. People are always streaming in and out. Nice but pricey.

That's great :clap_1: I can do some serious damage there :clap_1:
Whole Foods too?? My son-in-law calls it "whole paycheck". We love the produce there, and the soups, breads,......well, everything.

Whole Foods' 365 brand bulk coffee is wonderful. Try the Pleasant Morning Buzz. Yes, I have one now.

We have a Whole Foods (yes--whole paycheck) here in Denver. Actually, it is within walking distance, which is good because the parking lot is always nuts.
The only thing that is kind of a bummer is that when it opened, a nearby smaller natural foods store closed.
Having said that, I have to admit that I love their olive oil, cheese, seafood and meat section and shop there when I am feeling financially solvent. I like their breads too but their desserts don't wow me--too healthy or something.
Super Target is great for produce and good prices on cereal (and a whole bunch of other stuff) and I will miss it when we move to Port St Joe.
Maybe these places will move our way by the time we are senior citizens.
Until then we might occasionally get in the car for a big box store road trip.

Since Target is now in Destin. Do you think they will change the name to Target' just to class it up a bit

We have an excellent organic market on 30-A. "For The Health Of It" is locally owned and operated. www.ShopForTheHealthOfIt.com Get a massage and a smoothie while you're there.
You can also get better stuff on 30-A than what you can get at Target.
Save time and energy, don't add to the traffic or pollution. Shop local or shop the internet if you have to. :idea:

I wonder who did the photography for the website? And the virtual tour?
Looks great Kurt! :clap_1:

I adore Target! And, to me, Destin IS local. Guess I'm the rebel of the SoWal board...
Not to knock our shops along 30-A, though...I agree about "For The Health Of It." I've known Rachel since she was a baby.

Anyone have more info on the coming Whole Paycheck?
I really like For The Health of It, but their hours generally don't overlap with the times I'm actually on 30-A very often.
As for Target, I love them for their cheap non-food non-durable goods. They sell my contact lens soaking and cleaning supplies for 30% cheaper than anyone else in the area, including Walmart, does, and they're also my budget-friendly source for toilet paper, trash bags, shampoo, dish soap, etc. And I like the style of their cheap/disposable housewares more than what Bloodbath & Beyond sells.
It's going to be so nice to not have to schlep all the way over to Mary Esther once or twice a month for those kinds of things.

Is it a regular Target or a Super Target (or a Target "Greatland?") West of Big Kahuna's is not good. Still too much traffic to deal with in peak season. But definitely nice to have another option besides Wal-mart!

www.target.com Why schlep anywhere? And I'll bet there are better online places than target.com to get your goods.

"Why schlep anywhere? "
Yeah, I was thinking about this. Never before have I had a reason to shop at Target.com, but who knows how it will be for us in little Port St Joe.
Better to shop online and pay postal costs then schlep and pay for gas.
I can do without a lot of stuff, but things like dog food and vino fino do come to mind.

Because target.com doesn't sell toilet paper, my contact lens solution, or trash bags online. And I'm not gonna pay $11/bottle for eye stuff at the grocery store when it's $6.59.bottle at the big red bullseye.
I've had one too many weird experiences in Niceville Kmart, and have a longstanding loathing of Walmart and will only set foot in one anymore under extreme emergency situations.
