Target

I think many of us have read recent accounts of how Target has a policy of not dispensing birth control to customers if the pharmicist objects for moral/religious reasons. I sent a letter to Target expressing my concern over these policies, and I encourage those of you who are like-minded to do the same. Not shopping at Target anymore may ( Read more... )

That last line is the bombtrack.

Thanks -- its better than the first version, which was basically "QUIT BEING DOUCHE BAGS OR I'LL TAKE MY TOILET-PAPER BUYING ELSEWHERE!"

Uh oh. The letter wasn't supposed to say that? I need to change me email address.

I'm considering becoming a dogmatic Christian Scientist and going to pharmacology school so I can get a sweet job at target doing nothing. "Sorry, I'd hand out prescriptions but I believe prayer is the only cure. When do I get paid?"

I sent them a very similar letter from their Web site last week =)

Unfortunately I found out about this right after transferring all of my prescriptions to Target. I hope they come out with some kind of statement assuring us that this won't happen again so that I won't feel bad about going there.

You'd better make sure you can get your bc filled there!

They actually called me right after the transfer went through and were very very nice about it. I had just had it filled at Eckerd before I transferred and she said they would fill it again as soon as my insurance would let them.

I'm praying this is an urban legend.

Oooo, thats interesting -- I bet you that they haven't responded to a lot because they are FLOODED now with letters....they probably can't respond fast enough....

skate97 November 3 2005, 23:47:21 UTC

that's their stock response, everyone i know who's sent one so far has gotten that. i'm going to specify in my email that planned parenthood isn't to blame, so don't even send me that crap.

AWESOME letter -- I almost feel bad for poor Jennifer Hanson -- she probably got a job at Target, thought it was all cool, then found out some douche pharmacist decided to fuck up her week. =)
