"Best" Target & BBB

rcpm44

We are finally going to register and I remembered someone had mentioned that there were better Targets and BBB than others. Something about how certain ones were bigger and by default had a better selection. Does anyone know where the "best" ones of each of these two stores are? Thanks!

The "addison" BBB is the biggest. They are no longer actually in Addison though, they are right off of Midway between 635 and Alpha I believe.. They are on the NB side of Midway RD.

As far as Target, I'm not sure of the biggest, best location, but I am partial to the West Plano store (Park and Tollway) because I used to work there lol

Actually, they moved to the Tollway just north of the Galleria (BBB that is).  It's next to the Buy, Buy Baby.

Thanks Julie. I knew it was somewhere just south of Addison lol

The only reason why I even knew that was because we drove buy the new one and the old one the other day. 

A little shopping history:  the old three story BBB used to be a Foley's back in the day.

I visited the BBB that just moved by the Galleria and had a lot of selection, especially bedspreads.  However, if you are just interested in their fine china and place settings and you live around Plano, I would recommend the BBB by Collin Creek mall.  Addison/Dallas was a bit of a drive for us and we were able to find everything we needed at the Plano BBB.

We went to the BBB in Addison when it was at it's 3 story location. We spent 6 hours in there! :-)

You may already know this, but keep an eye out for how early you register before your showers/wedding at Target. They're selection tends to be short term. We registered in September and by our showers in October and the wedding in November, a lot of what we registered for was no longer available. It probably had to do with the change of seasons, though. Just thought I'd warn you about that.

At Target, you can always ask when they plan on doing the transition for, let's say, domestics. They usually know and can tell you.

Thanks for the information ladies! That helps. I'm sure FI won't be excited when I tell him that I found a 3 story BBB, but he'll live!

The BBB next to the Galleria is actually their flagship store and they have EVERYTHING.

Also Target deletes your registry after 3 months! 

We did most of our registry at that BBB in Addison, I think we made at least 5 trips picking out everything. Apparently my Husband had more opinions then I thought he would. That store has more than any other in the southwest region.
