Furious shopper alleges Target adds 'fat tax' after disco...
Asia Grace · 2026-06-12 · via New York Post

Think all clothing sizes are priced equally? Fat chance. 

The bigger the person, the bigger the price tag. It’s the crushing reality that shoppers of a certain size claim to face, per trending allegations that Target imposes “fat tax” surcharges on plus-size clothing.  

“I brought a size [Large] and a 3x [Extra Large] to the register. They rang up as $6 and $8, respectively,” wrote Samyra, an LA-based singer and body-positivity influencer, in the caption of a viral vid, blowing the whistle on the big box retailer for the alleged disparity.

The tastemaker superimposed alleged screenshots via Target’s website, revealing the price difference between two pairs of the same thong underwear cut at different sizes. 

“Two dollars extra all because we wear above an [Extra Large],” Samyra continued in the caption of the clip, which has amassed a combined 5.8 million views across social media. “This isn’t right.” 

Representatives for Target were not immediately available to respond to The Post’s request for a comment.  

The bullseye brand, however, is far from the only company to catch heat for allegedly enforcing fat fees.

Southwest Airlines was recently set ablaze by peeved internet pyromaniacs after an Erika, a plus-size traveler, publicly scolded the commercial flyers for attempting to hit the blond with a nearly $1,000 up-charge due to her size

The incident occurred shortly after the imprint unveiled its controversial policy this year. The questionable clause requires plump passengers, those who can’t comfortably fit between two armrests, to either purchase an additional plane seat in advance or risk being charged at the airport.

Critics, including Samyra, called out the airline for the unfairness, deeming it “fatphobic discrimination.”

But the content creator’s latest lambasting, aimed at Target, unfortunately, did not receive warm support online. 

In her snippet, Samyra filmed herself asking a Target associate to “price match” the larger pair of undergarments to the smaller, cheaper pair. The apologetic, amenable sales clerk mentioned that articles of clothing made for bigger bodies may often be priced high due to the manufacturer’s use of “more material” to meet the demand. 

Sadly, digital naysayers argued that overweight people should be overcharged for garb based on their girth. 

“It’s 500 yards more fabric, obviously it’s gonna be more expensive, you mop,” spat a cruel commenter. 

“Honestly. I agree with the [fat] tax. Sorry, not sorry,” an equally unsympathetic onlooker wrote. 

“More material [equals] more costs,” added another. 

A purported fashion professional, however, weighed in, debunking rumors that plus-size clothes are more costly to create. 

“As a sewist, the fabric cost on a mass scale makes no difference because the cost is distributed evenly across all the sizes,” said the insider. “You don’t see the XXS being cheaper.”
