At
your request, we have applied certain agreed-upon procedures, described below, agreed to by Target Corporation (the Company), Target Receivables Corporation, as Transferor, and Retailers National
Bank, as Servicer, each of their respective Officers and Directors, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee, to the Monthly Certificateholders' Statements (the Statements), issued
pursuant to the Amended and Restated Target Credit Card Master Trust (the Trust) Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), dated April 28, 2000, for Series 1997-1 for each
of the monthly reporting periods from January 2000 through December 2000. An example of a Statement, prepared by the Company, is provided as Attachment I. The specific procedures performed on each of
the Statements are cross-referenced to Attachment I for each item or group of items. Only those items with balances on the Statements were cross-referenced. Our procedures were applied as indicated
with respect to the letters explained below:



Accounting
records for purposes of this letter include the following reports or records: Data Summary Sheet; Breakout of Finance Charge Receivable and Principal Receivable; Finance Charge Receivable
Payments as a Percentage of Total Month Payments; Receivable Aging by Dollar Balance; Month End Accounts Receivable Aging Summary Reports; Purified Net Write-Off Reports; Monthly Sales Returns;
Credits and Adjustments Reports; Bank Sales Reports; Account Totals by Delinquency Level Reports; Geographic Distribution of Accounts and Receivables Reports; Miscellaneous Payment Instructions

accounts, all monthly reports are generated by an external vendor, as contracted by Retailers National Bank.

There
were no exceptions noted as a result of our procedures performed.

We
were not engaged to, and did not, perform an audit, the objective of which would be the expression of an opinion on the Monthly Certificateholders' Statements. Accordingly, we do not express such
an opinion. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported to you.

This
report is intended solely for the use of the specified users listed above and should not be used by those who have not agreed to the procedures and taken responsibility for the sufficiency of the
procedures for their purposes. However, this report is a matter of public record, as a result of inclusion as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by Target Receivables Corporation on
behalf of the Trust, and its distribution is not limited.
