Wordless Wednesday — Border Crossing

Happy Canada Day!

Crossing the border.

As much as we love Canada, we admit we cross the border to get to Target (and a whole lotta Outlet stores).

Canada is a wonderful country and we are very blessed to live here. But c’mon… no Target?

Sorry for the poor photo quality… Janice took this photo on her iPhone as she crossed the border to go shopping. And sorry Canada for our shopping betrayals.

Now it’s your turn… Please click over to add your Wordless Wednesday link and to visit more WW posts. (Due to the Mr. Linky slowly down the loading of our site, we have to move it off the home page. Sorry for the extra click!)

Thanks to Uisce for creating Wordless Wednesday.

    Happy Canada Day (a little late). I’ve only been to Canada once, but it was a wonderful experience. It’s so beautiful there – lots of great places to visit, good food to eat, and friendly people to meet. How far do you live from the border?

  2. willowsprite says:

    I’m confused. You guys are Canadian but pretty much all your contests, content, and giveaways are US…?
    Anyways, happy Canada day too! I’ve been down to the states and went to a Target (just ’cause apparently that’s THE store to go to,) and I found that it was pretty much the same as Zellers, except with way better customer service!

    Belated Happy Canada Day (I’m catching up from yesterday)! 🙂
    I haven’t been to Canada since I was a kid… it’s just too darned COLD up there. I live in Florida now, and when they say “border crossing” down here it has a WHOLE different meaning, and it ain’t for Target!! LOL

    Love the pics, and all your posts — keep them and your visits to the states coming, you are always welcome!!

  4. Raise Them Up says:

    Would you believe my family and I only just discovered Target’s bargains yesterday?? To think what I’ve been missing!!

  5. I’m a fellow Canadian who is also saddened by the lack of targets around here. Happy Canada Day

  6. The nearest Target for me is over an hour away so it’s always a treat when I get to go to one!

    Happy Canada Day! I’m moving to BC soon from the states and one of the first things I did was find my nearest Target close to the border. A girls gotta have her Target, right?!

  22. I would cross a border as well to shop at Target. 🙂

  26. Happy Canada’s Day. I’ve never been to Target so I guess I should cross the border for that. I have been to the outlet stores and loved it.

  27. Great picture! I’ve never crossed a border before, but that one looks very pretty and ornamental! Happy WW.

    Happy WW and Happy Canada Day 🙂 Omg, I could not live without Target! We live in a smaller city, we don’t even have a Kmart or a CVS, so I feel very lucky to have a Target.

  47. Groovy Mom says:

    I’d cross the border to shop at Target. 😛

  48. MomSoapBox says:

    Happy WW and Canada Day too!

  49. No Target! Yikes!

    Happy Canada Day!

  50. I’m doing much the same thing – border crossing to get to Target and such, too! lol Except, I live in Louisiana, a good hour-and-a-half away from Target, so we either trek to the nearest, or go visit the in-laws in Dallas. So this weekend, we’re doing the latter. YAY TARGET!

  51. It’s not fair, the best shops are all South of the border (like Fuddruckers, mmmm). Before, we could have said “Yes, but you guys don’t have Tim Hortons”, but that’s not the case anymore… 🙂

    My WW post…

    Happy Canada Day!

  52. LOL I would cross the border for Target too! 🙂 That’s one store I couldn’t live without.

  53. PhoenixTheBloggingMama says:

  57. Wendy aka CalvaryGirl says:

    Being in the south that’s a funny story for me 🙂 I have all sorts of jokes on border crossings that would be coming from my husband :p Then again, we live less than 2 miles from Target- dunno what I would do without it!

  58. Daddydayone says:

    Lol! I need a target I was there 3 times today.

  59. Nightowlmama says:

  66. Happy Canada Day! It’s been far too long since we crossed the border for a visit. I don’t blame you for heading south now and then, I couldn’t live without Target!

  67. Robin ~ PENSIEVE says:

    {{Giggles}} I’d cross a river full of gators to get to Target.

    Actually, I’m impressed with the quality of your picture…phones are AMAZING these days!!!

    🙂

  68. Target is a must have!

  69. That’s pretty cool. I’ve never been to Canada or anywhere even close to the border.
