The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
As for beverage (well, soda) sales, everyone's social circle is different, as for mine...usually people grab a water, iced coffee (bottled or poured) or energy drink at a corner, grocery or department store, etc.
I honestly cannot remember the last time someone I knew wanted to stop somewhere for specifically a Pepsi, Coca Cola or any regular soda product.
Even when eating out at a restaurant, if it is not alcohol, it's usually coffee and/or water.
maybe target sucks ass
Targets not really good for anything other than the Mossimo shirts and shorts.
The groceries are much more expensive than grocery stores near me I only get from there if desperate.
Probably cuz if ur buying groceries at target ur just getting ripped off plain and simple. It would make sense that if someone is examining their food budget and your stores groceries cost more they won't shop there for long.
Which is why I heavily invested in Costco when food prices went up. If suddenly it matters people are going to be willing to endure Costco.
Costco and Aldi
Gotta live with what they offer though, as the selection is not as large as a typical grocery store
