Target lovers are going to love this!

Addressing the financial pressures on consumers, Target is reducing prices on 5,000 items, helping to make essential groceries more affordable for New Jersey residents.

It's a welcome relief in a state known for its high living expenses.

If you're like me and spend a lot of time and money at Target this is great news.

You run in for bread and milk and realize there are so many other things you need to pick up while you're there.

Toilet paper, toothpaste, shampoo and conditioner too. You can easily spend almost a hundred dollars and you leave the store thinking, what did I even get? There's hardly anything in your bag to show for all the money you just spent!

Everything is just so expensive everywhere you go these days.
