I shop at Target a couple of times a week.
The other day, I wanted to buy a WaterPik. Actually, I decided I’d buy two.
When I went on line to see if Target had them, I found out they did... but the web page said “item not available in stores.”
So I made the purchase on line. About $80, including sales tax. Free shipping, and I got the 5% Target card discount.
It’s hard to understand. They’re undercutting their own stores with internet sales.
Not hard to understand at all. Internet sales obviously have a better profit margin than brick and mortar stores can return. If things continue, they may close a bunch of stores as well, while earning good profits.
