UPDATE: Nov. 28, 2024, 2:00 p.m. EST This story has been updated with the latest pricing and stock of Target’s best Black Friday deals live on Thanksgiving, plus new deals on Pokémon cards, Legos, and vacuums.
This year, if you want to get your holiday shopping done by Thanksgiving, it’s certainly possible. With Black Friday falling at the very end of this month, it’s no surprise that retailers started their sales way earlier. Now that Black Friday week is officially here, the deals are in full force. If you’ve run through Amazon and Best Buy’s sales, turn your attention to Target.
Target’s deals are just about as good as it gets. We’re seeing discounts across categories including headphones, TVs, robot vacuums. Ahead of Black Friday, start shopping these deals on Apple, Bose, Ninja, and more.
When does Target’s Black Friday sale start?
While Black Friday falls on Friday, Nov. 29, Target started the month with an early Black Friday, a 48-hour mad dash of deals to kickstart your holiday shopping. Now, the deals are coming back around. Target’s Black Friday sale is live now and runs until Saturday, Nov. 30.

Plus, the retailer is offering a holiday season price match. If you purchase an item at Target and it goes on sale leading up to Dec. 24, the brand will refund you the difference. It’s also price-matching competitors’ pricing within 14 days of your purchase.
What are Target’s Black Friday hours?
Unlike Amazon, which operates entirely online, you can shop Target deals online and in-stores. If you’re looking forward to shopping in-person this season, Target is a great place to do just that.
Target stores will be opening at 6 a.m. local time on Nov. 29, for those looking forward to joining the crowds.
Best tablet deal
Why we like it
“This Apple tablet is our favorite for most people, thanks to its versatility. It works just as well for artists as it does for students. The M2 chipset makes it a more viable laptop replacement than other tablets while costing you a few hundred dollars less than a supercharged iPad Pro.” — Bethany Allard, Lead Shopping Reporter

Best headphones deal
Why we like it
While our very favorite Sony headphones are the Sony WH-1000XM5s, their predecessor, the Sony WH-1000XM4s are also fantastic. Plus, they’re $100 cheaper.
They’re phenomenal headphones with active noise cancellation that truly tune out the world. If you like to crank up the volume, these are headphones for you because the audio quality is just so good. Plus, unlike the XM5s, the XM4s fold up for easy storage and toting around.
Right now, the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones are down to $199.99, saving $150 for 43% off during Target’s unofficial early Black Friday deals.

JBL makes our go-to Bluetooth speakers. They’re waterproof and portable with battery life to last for days. So we always have our eyes peeled for deals on JBL speakers during shopping events. At Target, you can find the JBL Flip 6 Speaker for well under $100.

If you’re getting ready to whip up dozens of Christmas cookies, don’t even think about doing it all by hand. Sure, it will be a great arm workout, but at what cost? Upgrade your kitchen tools ahead of 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.
