After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Target. Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunately, my wife is like most women - she loved to browse.
Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from our local Target.
Dear Mrs. Smith:
Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against Mr. Smith are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras.
1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking.
2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.
3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom.
4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away.'
5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&M's on layaway.
6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.
7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department.
8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'
9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.
10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.
11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the 'Mission Impossible' theme.
12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels.
13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!'
14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!'
And last, but not least.
15. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, and then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here.'
We respectfully request that during your future trips to Target, you ask your husband to wait at Lowe's.
Sincerely,
Steven Dixon
Manager
OMG, the visuals kill me. I am meant to marry a man like this. LOL

This cracked me up!!
I can only imagine the bachelor blog fodder if you go to Target in search of a man...
Why not try it, and come back and share it with us?
Would be great fun, dontcha' think?
julie...this is not fair! I am not supposed to be laughing at a computer screen!
Thanks for the Thursday chuckle!
~AirmanMom returning ot her blog...
HAAA! I am not sure that little ol Dana might not be in cahoots with him though. That gun incident sounded more like her...
LMAO
I'll never go into a Target again without thinking about this!
Hahahahaha!!! That is too much. May I forward that as an emil to someone?? Too damn funny!!
:-D
I can't wait to try these out!!
Parts of this are from a much longer list that was circulating when I was in undergrad "How to have fun in a town where Wallmart is the only place to go" - A list like this, if you are looking for more things to laugh at

Typical guy, more real than false!!! Now, if it'd been Menard's or Home Depot.. different story...
Loving the condoms:)
I had a male friend who when we stayed in a hotel, use to change all the *Do not disturb* signs to *make up the room*
The tomato Juice is my favorite. How do people come up with this kind of shit? I LOVE IT!
I've decided that when Boo goes to Lowes or Home Depot I'm going to flip the switch and try some of these. What's up with guys and hardware stores?
Thank god the security cameras did not see Joe leaving several unwrapped BabeRuth bars on the floor inside the dressing room.
Although yelling "there's no toilet paper in here" was, indeed, funny, it was the look of fear on the janitor's face that was worth the price of the candy.
And you've got it all wrong: that's why Joe LOVES to shop with me. I come up with the ideas and he perfects them.
HA HA HA that is hilarious and has given me some ideas I may just try out myself. I detest shopping at times and my ex loved shopping more than I did. Yes I think you can meet lots of guys in the supermarket or other stores. I am with Won on that!
Big F and I are going to have fun next time we go to Target'.
peace
