Cult-Favorite Products From Target That Hit The Bullseye Every Single Time
Cult-Favorite Products From Target That Hit The Bullseye Every Single Time
People always say they enter Target with a list — and leave with twice as much stuff. The 40 products below are probably to blame. Call them what you want — cult-favorites, must-buys, no-brainers — the fact remains: They've definitely landed in your cart one or two (hundred) times. But riddle us this: Did we miss anything?
1) California Roots Wine
Cabernet, a red blend, moscato, pinot grigio, chardonnay, and a newly added rosé. For five bucks a pop. At every Target that sells booze. Need we say more?
2) Simply Balanced Ginger Peach Sparkling Water
Target's house brand added more sparkling water flavors to the line-up in 2016, and the Ginger Peach has emerged as the fan favorite. Psst: It's cheaper than La Croix.

BUY NOW $8, target.com
Good luck finding cashew butter for less than $8 anywhere else.
4) Tone It Up Protein Powder

5) Archer Farms Cheesecake Bite Collection
Archer Farms offers these flavors in slices, but why would you pass up the adorable, bite-size squares — and reviewers on the site agree.

This Halo Top competitor is less expensive (can't you hear the cheers?!), and only 340 calories for the entire pint.
7) Milk Bar Cornflake-Chocolate Chip-Marshmallow Cookie Mix
These are a cult-favorite at the New York-based bakery Milk Bar, so why would the mix be any different at Target?
8) RXBAR Multipack

17) Magnolia Table Cookbook

26) Hearth & Hand Stoneware Sugar Cellar
Chip and Jo love an unnecessary written reminder as to what something's function is — like a "Laundry" sign in a laundry room or a table runner that says "Eat." It appears Target shoppers do, too, since this "Sugar" sugar cellar is all over Instagram.
