Target placed approximately 500 oversized and easy-to-identify gift tags in Manhattan. Target will give each guest that returns a gift tag at Target To-Go a gift card, worth anywhere from $10 to $500, and in turn Target will donate $100 to The Salvation Army to benefit families in need.
Clues to the gift tag locations were revealed on Twitter, @TargetToGoNY.
Target To-Go is a 3-day walk-up shopping space in NYC, San Francisco and Washington D.C. It's open to the public from Friday, December 11 through Sunday, December 13, from 10 a.m to 8 p.m.
I couldn't make it to the grand opening, but I decided to brave the cold and checked it out tonight right before they closed. There are 50 wrapped and ready to-go gifts to choose from. The order sheet is attached to the clipboard, which shows a tiny image of all 50 items, making it very hard to see the details. The selection wasn't what I anticipated - dvds, memory cards, hair dryer, gingerbread house decorating kit. I was thinking there would have been more trendy and unique gift pieces that wouldn't easily be found online or at other stores. But I guess the more people are familiar with the items, the easier it is for them to shop quickly. There were a few good things on the list including a cashmere scarf and Rodarte dresses and belts, but I prefer being able to touch the fabric and see what you are buying up close.
