WHEN MICROSOFT BUYS TARGET…

So Alyssa, Sophie and I were out shopping the other day… and when I saw this I just had to take a picture. Glad I had my camera with me! Took a little while to explain the joke to Alyssa…

[update]
No, it’s not Photoshopped! Well I mean, obviously the text and watermarks are… but the photo itself wasn’t! Also the sign is fixed now.

It will be about 6 weeks before that Target will open again, unless they find a giant blanket.

If you think about it Microsoft could turn Target into a behemoth if they buy it! Really LOL funny though.

Target must have just got a shipment of a 360 new game.

I am pleased. Even stores selling 360s are affected by its suckage.

Nice catch.

After all the times I've been to Target I have never thought of that, so it was brilliant on your part.

Also, when you pick up an item it says that the disc needs to be cleaned and to reset. I really hate that error

Wait, so he didn't photosop that pic? The sign was really like that? Oh man is that bad/funny!
