Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Hit Up Target for Private Pre-Christmas Shopping Trip

Forget about fancy high-end stores; Brangelina do their holiday shopping … at Target.

One of America's most famous couples, who are spending Christmas Down Under this year, convinced a Target store in Gold Coast, Australia, to let them shop privately on Sunday evening after the store had closed. And the trip would've stayed private if the Stuart Machin, the CEO of Target Australia, hadn't outed them on Twitter.


One Target employee spoke with news.co.au about their surprise over their A-List customers. "They made sure no one was around to blow their cover," the employee said. "The store manager waited until everyone had gone home and opened it up secretly for them at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday. She said they shopped for around an hour and a half to buy presents for their children and friends."

While Brad's been shooting "Fury" in the U.K., Angelina, 38, has been filming "Unbroken" in Australia. So it's quite the treat that the whole family was able to celebrate Brad's 50th birthday (Dec. 18) together in Oz. Maddox (12), Pax (11), Zahara (8), Shiloh (7), and twins Knox and Vivienne (5), were all seen gallivanting on a beach and boating on the Coomera River in Queensland with their parents on Monday.
