Stopped at Target to look for some shoes.

    Is this only an American thing ? I don’t think I’ve ever seen something like this in the European countries I’ve been in

      In general, I feel l like Europeans experience a healthy amount of shame in situations like these, like USians completely lack.

      I’d lie awake at night for the rest of my life because of the shame I’d feel knowing I left something behind looking as trashed as that.

      Never seen it in continental Europe, but Primark is on a whole different level in the UK

      I raise my hand- I’ve seen similar in Australia’s Targets and Kmarts, though I must admit that was years ago. I haven’t seen this much mess in yhe shoe section over the past couple years but I also haven’t been shopping for shoes there lately, so all I’m saying is it can happen here too.

      It’s not an “American” thing. There are zero stores like this where I live. It’s a “wherever this store is” thing.
