false positive reslts

Hi...i'm new to the forum and new to the pregnancy world.  I am 5 days late for my period, have tender/swollen breasts and took two test and they both came out positive.  However, they are Target brand tests and I've read reviews that this brand gives false positives....has anyone ever heard of this?  I'm obiviously going to get a different test on my way home but if this is true....it just sounds so irresponsible on Target's part!!!
