The title of "Happiest Place on Earth" technically belongs to Disneyland, but I'd argue Target is a close runner-up. I'm inclined to believe that 8-year-old Brayden Lawrence would agree with me, since she recently chose to have her birthday party at the store's Campcreek location in Atlanta. That's right, she didn't just have a Target-themed party, she had her party at Target. Brayden and her friends actually went viral after her aunt, Rikki Jackson, shared photos of the cute celebration on her Twitter account @RikDrip [1]. People can't get enough of Brayden's love for Target.
"Everyone was so happy and just in awe that she chose Target as her destination."
Rikki told POPSUGAR that Brayden's Target obsession runs deep. She'll "ask to go to Target just to walk up and down the aisles." Same, girl. Same. After Brayden made her birthday party requests clear, her mom went straight to the store's management who was happy to host Brayden and her pals. In fact, Albert, the store's manager even made the girls personalized name tags which looked great with the store uniforms and walkie-talkies that Brayden's mom bought.
Brayden's crew got to stock the store shelves during their scavenger hunt, where they found items around the store and returned them to their proper place. Then, they each used their own gift card to buy an item, with Brayden as their cashier — with Albert's help, of course. "Other shoppers were in shock," Rikki said. "Once we explained, everyone was so happy and just in awe that she chose Target as her destination." Brayden must've been pretty professional, because regular Target customers tried to jump in her line. Sorry, guys, she's a very exclusive employee!
