Target is trending on X after the retail giant announced they were lowering prices on 5,000+ items in its stores across the country.
The company claims that the price cuts aim to keep its prices competitive while also assisting consumers who are financially strained in today’s economy.
Many users online are outraged, arguing that the company’s price cuts are merely a tactic to distract from recent issues with inflation.
Price cuts are scheduled to take effect this summer, but the company has already slashed prices on at least 1,500+ essential products.
Don't fall for it. It's not infaltion, its corporate greed aka market manipulation. pic.twitter.com/rk5aRlt3S2

It was never inflation just price gouging.

Are they cutting prices, or is the net weight of the food items getting smaller?

Nice! This is great news. With prices going up everywhere, it's good to see Target stepping up and lowering prices on basics.

Oh? Right before a presidential election? Sounds like collusion.

Shit is so bad. That they have to openly admit to price gouging. https://t.co/Dt9RjCzZMC
