UPDATE: November 8, 2024, 10:34 am EST Target’s Black Friday deals are officially live. We are tracking the sale as products come in and out.
This year, if you want to get your holiday shopping done by Thanksgiving, it certainly is possible. With Black Friday falling at the end of this month, it’s no surprise that retailers are starting sales much earlier. This week, Target joined Amazon and Best Buy to launch a monthly sale.
The deals are as good as it gets. We’re seeing discounts across all categories, including headphones, TVs, robot vacuums. Before Black Friday, start shopping these deals on Apple, Bose, Ninja and more.
When does Target’s Black Friday sale start?
As Black Friday falls on Friday, November 29th, Target has now launched their Black Friday sale. Early Black Friday deals run through Saturday, November 9, so it’s a crazy run of deals to kick-start your holiday shopping.
However, Target has announced deals that will last through December 24th, so we’re eager to see what sales will be in place until Black Friday. Plus, the retailer is offering a price match for the holiday season. If you buy an item at Target and it goes on sale by December 24, the brand will refund the difference. It’s also price-matched by competitors within 14 days of your purchase.
What are Target’s Black Friday hours?
Unlike Amazon, which operates entirely online, you can shop Target’s offerings online and in stores. If you’re looking forward to shopping in person this season, Target is a great place to do it.
Target stores will open at 6 a.m. local time on November 29, for those who can’t wait to join the crowds.

The best headphone deal
Why we like it
Bose undeniably makes some of the best headphones we’ve ever tested. They don’t sacrifice comfort or audio quality, but they are expensive. While we would approve of buying them at full price, we also know you don’t need to.
The Bose QuietComfort headphones are a budget option in the Bose line. Having tested them myself, they are comfortable and easy to use with high-level active noise cancellation.
Before Black Friday, find them marked down to $199.99 at Target, taking 43% off for $150 in savings.

If you’re preparing to bake dozens of Christmas cookies, don’t even think about making them all by hand. Sure, it’ll be a great arm workout, but at what cost? Upgrade your kitchen tools before the holiday season with the KitchenAid 5.5-Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer. It has twice the power of KitchenAid’s standard tilt-head mixer and can mix batches of 11 dozen cookies at a time. This mixer is no joke.
