This is silly, but she looks really happy so it's fine.
yummylittledinosaur
The mighty capitalist experiment is almost complete - next step schools in retail locations, then lower wages and indentured servitude :)
WilysRobot
I'm just laughing imagining the store at peak hours and desperately looking for your manager and he's with tiny fake target employees
Flortzweich
Dream big, I guess.

How adorable is her face in #2?

Well this is next level capitalism

Teach ‘em young?

To be fair they have real Icees there...

this is adorable ❤️

My 5 year old daughter makes odd requests like this. She’s amazingly smart and sweet so I usually make them happen.
Muunk
This will be her last happy memory of Target. Ever after she'll hear "That'll be $467.24 please."
Mershkaderk
Well that's depressing AF
cattywumpus
I now wanna do my next birthday at the Target Starbucks. Frappucinos, then we hit the dollar aisle for shit we don't need.
pandastrafe
Fuckin lol. Explaining this to everyone must've been hilarious.
Ulthirm
I am going to be straight up, local Targets have generally been the best to the folk in their respective community. IDK how the corp is
Ulthirm
but the local stores are great, least down here they are. Plus they are one of the modern Fords, their stores hire many folk from many
Ulthirm
backgrounds. It's not even necessarily consumerism, how often does McDonalds, Chik Fil a, or some random other fucking business host
Ulthirm
birthdays. All the time, its basically impossible to go to one of those restaurants and NOT have a birthday going on. Kids tend to be
Ulthirm
pressured to go to public places, be it a park or a restaurant, because theres no space at home for lots of kids. Target isn't that far
Ulthirm
off at this point. I mean theres 2 organizations down here that literally are designed as a game for kids to play shop in. You go in,
Rodka209
Low-key, Target is my decompression zone. Grab a coffee and kind of just wander around.
ASnugglyPugly
Yo, I get you.
narniasreal
Do you spend a lot of time deep under water?
TransistorRadio
Shipping at Target is great for preventing the bends. I shop there all the time, and I've never gotten the bends, so it must be true.
narniasreal
Ive never been to Target and I've never been attacked by a tiger!
TransistorRadio
That's cause they sell tiger repellent. See how great it works?
HamburgerWelper
What are we, millionaires? Go get your Dollar General uniform on & call your friends. Don’t spill any soda on it cause I have a shift later.
IWouldDoThings
*passes out box cutters to all the kids* girls get finished shelving this stuff and then we'll all split a Little Debbie. Happy Birthday...

did you mean Bullseye?
larrythelobster626
My target sucks they took out the good Pizza Hut and put in a fancy one and took out the icee machine and popcorn
Yupurineutah
You mean like a Costco pizza one? That's great pizza for cheap.
TatersWhatsTatersPrecious
That actually looks like a fun party. Costumes, role play, icees!
parvanirose
Aww, it looks like she had fun and that's what matters in this scenario. It's so sweet that they actually allowed this for her.
chicharrone
wtf!? Why can't my kids have taste this cheap? They always want their parties at an arcade that costs $82 a kid plus party favors (SMH)
neonoptic
How do you know this didnt cost a shitton?
narniasreal
My kids want that too! Also I don't have kids and I want it!
therealNorrinRadd
Thats terrible. My son just had his 9th at an arcade and it was 25 to reserve the party room. And they did set up and clean up. And gave...
therealNorrinRadd
Us 25 dollars in tokens for the games when we got there. I couldnt believe it. Set up wasnt much. table clothes, balloons amd basic stuff
bagofgrapes
We did something similar at the Apple store. Kids are weird, but man they sure love to have fun and don’t care what people think.
drzdeano
What the fuck? Target has slurpee and drinks machines? Once again Australia gets snubbed.
GemsAreOutrageousTrulyTrulyTrulyOutrageous
Kids're weird, but we need more managers like this guy. Mad props!
IsaacNuetron
Quirky request,...great move by the manager..
poets
Mom must be smoking hot
becauseracevan
Agreed. That kids gonna be a customer for life after that kind of experience. No amount of advertising can achieve that.
Woolytop
I dunno. If a kid decided they wanted to have their birthday party at my workplace I'd probably end up murdering at least one of them.
DocJungleRot
You couldn't buy good PR like that if you tried. Good on the manager for seeing how far he could flex things w/o causing trouble.
somethingsomethingwittyhere
Until some jobsworth from Head Office sees this...
DocJungleRot
Sadly enough, you aren't wrong.
TallDude
Eh, for things like this you usually push it up the chain a couple levels. If it was just on a whim, then you've got trouble.
echonite
Manager probably gunna get fired for letting a kid use the register. At least that seems to be the corporate trend these days.
Zimno
Target store managers are almost impossible to get fired.
Ornoth
Kids find joy in the strangest ways and places. Probably good memories with family or friends there. I know I choose target for the same.
IsaacNuetron
The red shirt and name tags make me wish I were an 8 year old.
mybrothersmario
I grew up loving whenever my mom would get me a salted pretzel there, those memories make me like Target more than any other large chain

They had last year's at Wal*Mart, and half the girls ended up pregnant.

Ooh yeah damn that's like a crowd shocker

I work at Walmart. Three customers within ten minutes asking for Plan B tonight
GemsAreOutrageousTrulyTrulyTrulyOutrageous
I get the joke, but damn, man. Those're kids.
LWSS246
Was there an incident at Walmart my friend missed?
Kuremisago
It's a common trope that Walmarts are frequented by... less than savory characters. Try checking out the subreddit r/peopleofwalmart.

Did they get to watch the anti-union training video?
Duros62
In the break room where Marsha microwaved FISH AGAIN!
Markuspsyches
You mean the one made with unionized actors?
FERNSONN
What kind of consumerism dystopian shit is this?
foxfire1112
lol it's so odd
Grehgous
Welcome to Costco. I love you.
TheMadOnion
Might as well get them ready for retail hell early.
TheMadOnion
That said when I was a kid I wanted to have my birthday at a local Blockbuster. It didn't happen though. :(

Right? Fucking capitalist worship

Gotta get em used to being wage slaves as early as possible.

Glad I'm not the only one.
sharkchilada
When I was 8, you could have a full sponsored party at McDonalds. Got a tour of the back and they showed you how to make a big mac.
Owlpaul
They showed you the flesh machine?!
Fifofu
A lot more healthy than princess and super heroes. She feels like she belong in society, not that she's special by birth or against world.
Duros62
Good point.
cutebytes
Thanks for being the only one saying this
SoGrosslyIncandescent
If I were to take a guess, she has a family member she loves who works at Target and wanted to emulate them. But please, enjoy your outrage.
RoundThreeFIGHT
I was a front end team lead for 8 years. My niece either wanted to be a rockstar or a target cashier lol
moltencorgi
Where are my backup cashiers? - the words that haunted me for years when I worked there.
RoundThreeFIGHT
I still wake up at night trying to sell my husband the RedCard lol
narniasreal
She was assigned her designated profession at birth and is now only preparing to adopt it when she reaches a certain age.
Duros62
As the prophecies fortold.
cyno01
Not to spoil a kids birthday party, but yeah little bit.
haroldsax
Good on the actual people who made this happen and included all the kids but like...what the fuck, man?
th031695
Really. I'm glad she did something she wanted to do. But when I was little we wanted to go to chuckie cheeses or something.
mikekearn
Chuck E Cheese is hardly less consumerist dystopia than Target. At least Target is useful.
cyno01
Mechanical rat pizza and child casino.
