Spotted: Michelle Obama shopping at Target

By Misty - Posted on 02 October 2011

First lady Michelle Obama, wearing a hat and sunglasses, pushes a shopping cart as she carries her purchases at a Target department store in Alexandria, Va. , Thursday, Sept. 29, 2011, after doing some shopping.

According to the Associated Press, plain clothes Secret Service agents arrived at the store about half an hour before Mrs. Obama, who then spent roughly 30 minutes shopping. The only person to recognize the First Lady was the cashier who rang up her purchases.

That is so cool! I love Target... Look how she's dressed... I don't look nearly that good, when I go to Target.

So now it looks like Michelle might have brought an AP photographer along with her. If true, then this whole thing is a little cheesy.

Agreed to the cheesy. It

Agreed to the cheesy. It seemed way too staged.
