Viral TikTok exposes \u201csecret room\u201d in Target for watching customers TikTok: SANTI \/ Wikimedia Commons: Jay ReedA TikToker is going viral for exposing secret rooms in certain Target locations, which they claim are for keeping an eye on customers near the checkout area. TikTok is known for making certain discoveries go viral. For instance, one woman\u2019s \u201chack\u201d for getting $2 burritos at Chipotle was a huge hit on the site, and the app\u2019s viral \u201cshower jeans\u201d method left users trying out the benefits of showering with pants on for themselves. However, this latest discovery is making all Target regulars raise an eyebrow as the chain is now coming under intense online scrutiny. On May 3, 2022, Target employee and TikTok user \u2018Santi\u2019 posted a video near Target\u2019s self-checkout area before panning the camera to show a series of mirrors lining the top of a far wall near the ceiling. It turns out that these aren\u2019t your usual mirrors; instead, Santi climbed up a flight of stairs to show that these are actually two-way mirrors that look out onto the store from a \u201csecret room.\u201d The room appears to be a space specifically for employees, seeming to house offices and meeting rooms alongside an area that allows them to look out onto the store floor. \u201cIf you see mirrors like this in a Target, they are watching you,\u201d Santi captioned the video.

The clip has garnered over 4.4 million views since being posted just a day ago \u2014 and viewers are giving their takes on the situation with some hilarious comments. \u201cWell they aren\u2019t doing a good job,\u201d one commenter said. \u201cCause I walked out with an air fryer.\u201d \u201cWatch me do what?\u201d another wrote. \u201cTry and find a shirt that isn\u2019t cropped?\u201d \u201cMans snitched on his own company,\u201d another user added. It\u2019s safe to say that this is making us a little extra-aware of any mirrors in our local Target store \u2014 a chain that came under fire mere days prior after one TikToker discovered a slew of brand-new bikes in a dumpster behind her a Target location.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
