Andy | Wednesday, February 09, 2011 | Best Blogger Tips

All Canadians are familiar with this sign. Soon they will be no more. Target Stores USA have recently bought
Zellers for 1.8 billion $$. See more signs at Signs, Signs.

    Genie... At present there are no Target Stores in Canada. They are moving in the same way Wal-Mart did. Purchasing an establish retailer for the store locations.

    I like Target, hopefully Canadians will like them also. Of course, I have no idea about Zellers.

    Personally, I think they got a good deal. I've always wanted to see what target was all about.

    A good mean to measure time and life. One can only hope that they will keep the staff.

    Please have a good Thursday.

    Except for colors and logos, they (Target, Wally World, etc.) all look about the same from the outside -- probably the inside too. Nice shot, Andy.

    Well, the colors will remain the same. I always feel sad when the big companies buy out the smaller ones. I love the blue and red in this shot. It makes it so interesting.

    Sad seeing icons like this melt away into what some view as progress and others view as the dark greed of big business! At least you have a photo of what was!

    It was a great idea to capture the Zellers sign before they disappear! Seeing it in your post I realized what a good logo it is - so graphic! I've never been in a Target store so don't know what to expect.

    No idea of what this store is all about but the shopping park is a universal scene. I like he damp car park with the remains of snow. The logo is interesting looks 30s or 50s design, very bold.
