Target Brilliance

Guys, this is great. Just take a look at this.
What you have seen, if you have clicked on that (totally work safe) link, is a cardboard box containing a food steamer – for rice, vegetables, meat, anything you can steam, you steam in this food steamer. (No, it has not escaped my notice that in the space of a week I bought both a food dehydrator and a food steamer. I’m sure it has some significance of which I am, for the moment, unaware.)
What you see attached to that box, that box holding the food steamer, that box which is, I might add, reasonably heavy (It’s not that heavy, but it’s not an empty box. It has a neat toy in it. A neat cooking toy. And carrying it around the grocery store under one arm was doable, but it was no picnic, you must understand.), is a very long piece of Target tape.
This is no ordinary tape.
This is not even ordinary Target labeled tape.
This is SPECIAL TARGET LABELED CARRYING TAPE.
After I paid for my items, the very nice man at the register took a roll of this wonderful tape out from beneath the counter. He wielded it like a brilliant weapon and attached a long piece of it to my food steamer box. As you see in the picture I provided, a large bit of it stuck up. Like a handle.
A beautiful red and white handle.
And that, my friends, is how I carried it to my car.
With the handle.
That Target gave me for my new food steamer in its ungainly, medium-sized cardboard box.
Who is smarter than Target, I ask you?
Gurgle.
