Yesterday Minneapolis-based Target celebrated the grand opening of 27 new stores, including its first two doors in Hawaii, in the cities of Honolulu and Kapolei. The stores include 21 general merchandise stores and six SuperTargets, which have a full grocery inside.

Falling gas costs have been cited as one reason for better-than-expected performance. Visit www.target.com.
