  Re: Poor Target....
 
(...) Agree 100% :) My guess is they're mad at him for "getting away with it".

  Re: Poor Target....
 
(...) Pesonally, I don't appreciate the braggadocio aspect of the original post. However, heres a counter example (hypothetical of course)... Suppose someone takes the Target ad into a WalMart and asks "see this ad, will you match Target's price ?" (...) (22 years ago, 24-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
