UPDATE: The truth about Target
popular.info
On September 26, Target announced it was closing nine stores "because theft and organized retail crime are…contributing to unsustainable business performance." Target said that before making the decision to shutter the stores, it had "invested heavily in strategies to prevent and stop theft and organized retail crime." But ultimately, Target claimed, those efforts failed to make those stores "successful."

Never trust the corporations excuses.

PS: I wasn’t sure if this was a good fit for this community, but I couldn’t think of another. Any suggestions?

    Every big box store experiences petty theft, though. The real reason the 3 Target stores in Portland closed is because they were all in absolutely horrific locations. One was in a reclaimed bowling alley. Another was off a freeway and took ages to actually get to a parking lot. Just super inaccessible.
