25. Shop During the Week
Have you ever noticed that when you are in a store, and it seems busier than usual, you just can’t seem to get away from anyone? There are people in every aisle, and someone is standing right in front of the product you want to grab. You’re just trying to make this a quick in-and-out trip, but you end up waiting on the people around you. Have you paid attention to what day of the week it is? If you’re going out on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, then this might be why you’re experiencing the increased volume of people.
Try going shopping at Target mid-week, like a Monday or Tuesday. You will miss the hustle and bustle of the stores during their peak hours, and you will be able to shop at your leisure. Sometimes the stores are so busy that you miss when they have an excellent deal on markdown. Going mid-week will allow you to browse without feeling overwhelmed. You could also try different times during the midweek shop – early morning might be best or try 2 pm – after the lunch rush. Take note of the times of day that you’re going to try to visit the shops at the same time.
