With a focus on enhancing the shopping experience, Target is introducing new collections, expanding grocery options, and forming exclusive brand partnerships. Additionally, the retailer is incorporating in-shop experiences to delight its customers. While most of these changes are exciting, there is one update that may not be well-received.

Let's dive into the details of these transformations and what they mean for Target shoppers.

New Look and Enhanced Shopping Experience

Target is revamping select stores with a futuristic and eco-friendly design. With plans to build a 149,000-square-foot location in Denton, Texas, these new stores will be more energy-efficient and feature designs that embrace natural elements. The larger space will enable faster online order fulfillment and a wider product selection. Target aims to incorporate these elements in nearly 100 new stores and redesigns throughout the year.

Returns Made Easy with Drive Up

Target is now offering Returns with Drive Up, allowing customers to make returns right from their cars at no extra charge. This convenient service builds upon the popular Drive Up feature, which enables guests to pick up orders without leaving their vehicles. Returns with Drive Up has already launched in over 500 Target stores and will be available at all 2,000 locations by the end of summer.

Target Circle Rewards Update

While Target Circle rewards provide savings, there is a new expiration policy. Rewards will now expire after one year, prompting members to use them within the specified time frame. Target Circle offers one percent cash back on every purchase, which can be used for future Target purchases through the app. Customers should be mindful of the expiration date to ensure they make the most of their rewards.
