Target stores in Michigan and Ohio are a popular shopping destination for a variety of reasons. From clothing to personal items, and even groceries, Target offers a one-stop-shop experience for its customers. However, shoppers in these states may soon face an inconvenience as Target plans to implement a new rule.
Target Enforces New Rule For Shoppers At All MI And OH Locations
Target has recently implemented several changes in its stores located in Michigan and Ohio. These changes include the introduction of a new line of affordable products and reduction in the prices of other products to offer greater value to customers. Moreover, there is a new change across all Target stores in the United States that has altered the way customers make purchases.
In a surprising turn of events, the retail sales numbers for November show an unexpected rise. The figures indicate that consumers are spending more than anticipated during the holiday season. Despite concerns about the ongoing pandemic and economic uncertainty, it seems that shoppers are still willing to open their wallets and make purchases. This is good news for retailers who have been struggling to stay afloat amidst the current economic climate. The unexpected boost in sales is a welcome relief and may provide some much-needed momentum going into the new year.
Target has recently announced that they will not be accepting checks as a payment method any longer, as per a statement from a company spokesperson.
“Due to extremely low volumes, we’ll no longer accept personal checks staring July 15. We have taken several measures to notify guests in advance to aid an easy and efficient checkout experience.”
If you’re a Target Circle Card holder, you may still pay your credit balance by sending in checks through the mail. However, unlike in the past, Target no longer accepts checks as an in-store payment method. This move is not unique to Target, as other retailers like Aldi and Whole Foods have also stopped accepting checks at their locations. Interestingly, recent studies indicate that only a mere 1 percent of consumers actually opt to use checks for in-store purchases at restaurants or retail stores in the United States.
