Right on Target

When moving to a new suburb (and indeed a new job every couple of weeks) it�s imperative to sort out the shopping situation. Where can I get groceries, fruit and veg, possible lunch alternatives. I think these opportunities are really getting me out there to explore lots of things. That and when someone opens up a conversation with, �You know the Woolies at Strathfield and/or Coles at Eastgardens� I can answer with a definite � �Yes, yes I do� instead of my usual glassy-eyed, �Er, ah, not so much� and then totally ruin their story.

Now I�ve settled into shopping at Broadway, it�s a 10-15 minute walk from home and it�s got everything. Well not quite. It�s got Coles, Harris Farm, a butcher�s, a bread shop, Freedom, Go-Lo, Vodafone, Just Cuts, Rebel Sport and Kmart (and various other places I don�t use) but it�s lacking in a Target. Yes, yes, I know, it�s got a Kmart. But it�s not the same! There is something about the clothes, shoes and underwear at Target that makes me more likely to purchase there. I think maybe it�s their range of work-type clothes that gets me. Kmart just seems to be lacking. That and their range of novelty underpants is seriously lacking (and far too many of them are pink).

When I worked at the NSW Fire Brigades last year (close to Chullora Shopping Centre � good shopping there) I saw in all the incoming mail about applying for a safety inspection for the proposed new level at Broadway Shopping Centre. Well didn�t my eyes just prick up at that! (Yes eyes, I didn�t hear it � I saw it :oP). Then in the excitement of going to Finland for Christmas and New Year I forgot all about it.

Until yesterday. I thought I�d give the old Broadway Shopping Centre website a look-see to find out any further information.

The �third� level will contain 30 specialty stores and...TARGET! *pumps fists in the air*

And I only have to wait until �early 2007� � I can wait, for the underwear goodness of Target, I can wait!
