I noticed the same thing re: laundry detergent when I was in the store last week-- $14.99 in the store which I thought was definitely on the higher side compared to what I've previously paid at other Targets (including Harlem and Atlantic Terminal locations). I pulled up the same item on target.com and it's selling for $10.99. Ironically, you can order the $10.99 detergent online and pick it up in the Tribeca store. That seems to be one way to getting around the inflated in-store price. — Jen on Seen & Heard: Is Target a Good Deal?

Definitely disappointed with Target. It is way too small to have a meaningful presentation and selection of any product categories. The prices are high or the same as Best Market, Whole Foods, and Duane Reade, all of which with better selection. In some cases, you can get a better deal at Kings Pharmacy!!! WTH?! I'll continue to shop from Amazon/AmazonPrime for my toiletries and basics where you can get better deals. This Target tried to put too many product categories into such small space. It may have been better to focus on a few product categories than to try and offer everything with epic failure. And have you seen their produce? Rotten bananas and wilted veggies. Awful. — Tribma on Seen & Heard: Is Target a Good Deal?

I've seen the photo and for those that haven't but are curious to see what this guy looks like. Trust me. Even without seeing a picture, you'd never let a guy looking like that within a few feet of your kid if you saw him. Besides looking completely unwashed and unshaven, the guys wearing surgical gloves. — Lowphat on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

Used to work at Target, it is a little early to tell price points. They have rates that are priced based on the area, when compared to stores in Queens they are the same. Target does do competitive shopping with the stores in their area, which aren't reflected right away so as time goes on the prices may become more compareable to the area. — George on Seen & Heard: Is Target a Good Deal?

it's crazy but it's often cheaper to have amazon prime ship stuff than buy it locally. ditto walmart. online shopping makes a lot of sense, if you live in tribeca. the exception i make is for kings pharmacy and best market. i am willing to pay a little more to keep these guys in business. — josh on Seen & Heard: Is Target a Good Deal?

Now the Soho Pharmacy is neighbors with the Tribeca Pharmacy! — James on Seen & Heard: Nobu’s Final Months in Tribeca

Wei West is the worst Chinese food I have ever had anywhere. It is virtually tasteless and sadly includes very few quality ingredients in its food. Eg Fried rice is literally just that, virtually no egg, vegetables, meat or chicken, scallions, condiments. I've tried multiple dishes and given up. — Celeste Lee on Where to Order Chinese Food in Tribeca

I bought online for delivery to the store which only took a few hours- but for the much lower prices available online. — Joshua S on Seen & Heard: Is Target a Good Deal?

wow an actual thoughtful response. thanks dan hoeg! it seems liike ur 1 the few developers who actually cares what gets built. good luck! i hope we get to see you do something there soon. — Jon R. on City Building to Get Residential Makeover

It is not right to share such a photo unless the police have conformed that the person in the photo is, or is connected to, the sick son of a bitch. If a parent or caretaker sees that photo they will only look out for that particular individual... So if the photo turns out to be of someone unrelated to these crimes, they will inadvertently be putting their child in danger if they scan a room, don't see the man they saw in the photo, and let their guard down. In the meantime, be aware of anyone wearing rubber gloves in a crowded area (especially a store/market) and obtain more information on what to look out for from the pd and local schools. — Tri B. on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

Elizabeth, you're why not publishing a random photo is the prudent way to approach this. You went from "creep" to "child predator" in 0 - 60. Let's have something more substantiated before we go lighting torches and grabbing pitchforks. Posting this as a heads-up is enough. I for one will be keeping an eye out. — Karen on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

At first I liked the idea of having a target nearby then I went to cost it on opening day and HATED the pedestrian traffic. I'm hoping these crowds don't show up during the weekends. I like my part of town quiet. Laundry detergent (tide) 15 bucks. Walmart has for 6.94 (delivery) — Tribecian for 2 decades on Seen & Heard: Is Target a Good Deal?

Perhaps you should think of your concern that it might be a "weird misunderstanding" or just a "creep" in the context of your headline. You are losing me here. — Elizabeth on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

Kudos to you Eric for doing the right thing. — Makes you go "hmmm..." on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

I don't know the person who sent the photo to me, and I don't know the person who took the photo. It sounded legit enough to me to warrant posting, so that parents could be on guard, but for all I know it could be a prank, or someone's revenge on an ex. The guy may be a creep, or this could all be a weird misunderstanding. Publishing his photo convicts him prematurely, and your noble urge to protect your children doesn't necessarily trump other people's rights. — Erik Torkells on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

Ditto. I am not sure why you don't think it "feel's right" to share a photo of a child predator in our neighborhood that many people already have access to. I have two children who go to private school in Brooklyn. I would like information on what to look out for. — Elizabeth on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

I don't have a child that attends a local school but I frequent wholes food a lot with my son. How can we access this photo? I — Tribecian for 2 decades on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

I looked online to compare prices with the kids clothes I bought. The base price was the same for all items, but they are on sale online. One shirt I paid $12.99 for is on sale online for $10.39. I also bought some food. A granola bar I paid $1.66 for is $1.19 online. Hmm. — DeeDee on Seen & Heard: Is Target a Good Deal?

Do you really use the bridge? I understand why kids are made to do it, but it's a lot of work just to cross a street. — Erik Torkells on In the News: Changes to a Dangerous Intersection

the 1st Precinct is non existent in our area. Never a cop around when you need one. Cabs pass lights, people get their phones stolen right from their hands. Lots of homeless hanging out on Greenwich Street. Good Luck finding a cop to help find this creep praying on the young. — Native on Man Allegedly Stroking Kids at Tribeca Supermarkets

Use the bridge...walk up the stairs, cross the highway, and down the stairs on the other side.. — jim on In the News: Changes to a Dangerous Intersection

Jim, thank you - I wouldn't have known. — Andrea on Where in Tribeca…?

Re:high pricing Just do a price match to Target's website, or do a store pick up. I do it at the Brooklyn stores all the time, since the online prices are cheaper. — Dagny on New Kid on the Block: Target
