In 2014, Scott Simms delivered the greatest pre-Black Friday speech ever to Target employees in Westminster, Maryland. It’s worth revisiting if you need the extra courage to actually leave your house to shop today. 

“They come here with bargains in their heads, and fire in their eyes!” Simms charges in the video. “We’re more than just a store: This is a team! This is a family! This is Target!”
