Target joins K-Mart with drive-through retail services

Target launches drive up service – for days when you don’t want to leave the car. Here’s how it works: After placing an order in the Target app and selecting “Drive Up,” Target will notify guests when the order is ready to be picked up. Guests hit the “I’m on My Way” button when they are en route to their store. They pull into designated parking spots out front, and soon a Target team member comes out to greet them with their order. After testing Drive Up among select Target team members this summer, the free service is now available to guests at stores throughout the Minneapolis-St. Paul area who use the latest version of the Target app on an iPhone. Through Drive Up, guests can shop nearly 200,000 eligible items—including home furnishings, toys, electronics, household essentials, non-perishable food, baby-care items and more.
