Tulsa Hills Shopping Center

[TulsaSooner]

Belk tomorrow and Lowe's at the end of the month I believe.

[sgrizzle]

I already went tonight. DSCOTT was there as well with a cartload of ho-hos, a plasmascreen, and a Blu-ray copy of "Gigli."

The guy who sits next to me at work and his wife were there too. So I knew 3 people in a store where employees outnumbered customers.

(DSCOTT's purchases may have been fictionalized slightly)

[Composer]

It is great to hear that Tulsa Hills is finally OPEN!  I am hoping that the sales tax receipts in Tulsa rise from this.  Having Belk in this part of town should help.  If you want to go to Belk now, you have to drive all the way to Owasso.  That will all change very soon.

Yeah, "slightly" is an understatement... []

It was funny that I saw you there--I don't live anywhere near the area and didn't expect to see TNers at the brand new store.

P.S., sgrizzle's purchases included a Hello Kitty doormat, some bath salts and a Barbie McMansion (how could you?!)

It's about 7 miles from me, but I'm a bit of a consumer whore...

The ,ansion said it architecturally matched with the rest of barbieville and had appropriate setbacks, I didn't know, I swear..

Probably has already bought his daughter a large, gas guzzling, Barbiemobile to park in front of that Mc Mansion too. [8D]  Shaaaaame, the examples and priorities some people instill in their childrens minds. Shaaaame. []

I went to Belk in Owasso once and hated it.

ah yes belk, I know when I think of a place to shop, the first place I think is belk...[]

give me a break.  Belk ranks up there with Stage, Goody's, and other C market retail trash.

good potato chips.
the black pepper & sea salt ones, specifically.

I do not think the excitement is because of Target.  I think it comes because Tulsa Hills is an opportunity for Tulsa to capture back some of the sales tax from its citizens without seeing them travel to the suburbs for their goods. Tulsa needs to get to $20 Million/month in revenue from sales tax.  This city relies on it too much for it to be any lower.  Now, we are seeing monthly receipts around $17 million.

We went to Target this morning for the supposed "Grand Opening". We got there around 9 and no big festivities for the "Grand Opening". Not that we were going for that, I just thought that they would have done more. The design of the store is exactly like Owasso's. They have a few more groceries than a regular Target, but not as many Super Target.

The one down side to our experience. They had 1 whole cashier working!!! There were at least 6 people in front of us. Someone went and complained and the manager came out and said that they were slammed yesterday and a lot of people quit(couldn't take the heat/pressure)!! How sad is that? Either its poor interviewing or people lied to get the job and said they worked well under pressure.

So, if anyone is looking for a job Target is hiring cashiers!!
