Everyone planning to make a Target run today can breathe a sigh of relief — the retail giant’s registers are back up and running after a brief outage Saturday.

Target officials released a statement assuring shoppers the store’s registers are fully back online in all stores.

“The temporary outage earlier today (Saturday) was the result of an internal technology issue that lasted for approximately two hours,” the statement said. “Our technology team worked quickly to identify and fix the issue, and we apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this caused for our guests.”

The company said the outage wasn’t a data breach or security-related issue and no guest information was compromised.

The company operates 1,800 stores, including 18 in Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania.
