'On the 7th Day B4 Xmas, Target's Gift to Me: A New Debit Card': Hudson Folks on Target Data Breach

Another person asked on Facebook why word came from news media first, before store officials.

How are people in Hudson reacting to news of a huge breach of shoppers' financial data at Target stores? 

On Twitter, Nora from Hudson (@tradingvows), posted: 

"On the 7th day b4 Xmas, @Target's gift to me, a trip to my bank for a new debit card: @PioneerPress:Target credit, debit card data breached"

To friends in Green Bay who were talking about the advantages of not shopping at Target, Aaron in Hudson (@AaronMertig) tweeted back

"Eliminate Target and you're don't have a lot left for choices in Green Bay."

On the Hudson Patch Facebook page, Jo commented: 

"As an employee of target, I didnt even know about this. But have since heard the line is busy and website has bugs from so much traffic. Watch your account and work with your bank if necessary."

Also on Facebook, Cynthia asked: 

"I wonder why we had to wait for a reporter to break the story? Why did Target not inform their customers?"
