The photo, which shows a woman strongly resembling the pop star inside a supermarket, has been circulating on social media.
An Instagram user who shared the snap, said it was taken at a Target in the Westwood neighbourhood of Los Angeles.
“When you come across a multi-million dollar goddess at Target!” the Instagram user, identified on her account as Monica, wrote.
“Lunch breaks in Westwood.”
The woman in the photo is wearing sunglasses while walking inside the department store, dressed in an orange jumpsuit.
Chrissy Teigen was one of many people who reacted to the image after a Beyoncé fan account shared it on Twitter.
“Beyoncé you are so silly, I can just send you my new knives!!” the cookbook author, who has a line of kitchen accessories for sale at Target, wrote.
Several people were amazed to learn that they and the pop star shop in similar places.
Others lamented the fact that Beyoncé presumably visited Target on one of the rare days they didn’t.
Many were simply in disbelief as to what they would do if they came upon the singer while shopping for necessities.
“Imagine just going down an aisle in Target and running into BEYONCÉ. I don’t even know man,” one person wrote.
“Can you imagine running into Beyoncé at TARGET... like TARGET TARGET!!! I could never go back to Target the same,” someone else tweeted.
This isn’t the first time people have reported seeing Beyoncé at Target.
Social media users previously said they had spotted the pop star among the department store aisles in March 2018 and December 2017, among several reported occurrences.
A representative for Beyonce did not immediately respond to enquiries.
