I'm probably missing something, but...

I broke up with Target a while ago. Since then, we've been able work through out differences and we remain casual acquaintances - meaning i don't go out of my way and stuff... but in in a laundry induced t-shirt and sock emergency I still run back for a one shopping stand (get it? get it?)

Anyway, I didn't much get the recent hoopla about Missioni for Target. People were clawing their way through merchandise that seemed inspired by the blankets lovingly crotched by grandma and proudly displayed in the basement rumpus room.  Regardless, the collection sold out in record time, crashing the Target website and making everyone all pissy.

Really people? Really?

Well, it appears that people are now seeing clearly and returning merch to the stores, as Missioni items are re-appearing. (yes, there were quite a few laundry related emergencies necessitating purchases of t-shirts recently). I guess selling all that crap on eBay didn't pan out - and returning it at least helps you break even - minus the scratch marks and black eyes, I suppose.
