Target Circle Week: Everything you need to know to score big deals over 7 days

Amazon’s October Prime Day and Walmart’s Holiday Deals Sale are creeping up fast, but Target is kicking off its own October savings event even sooner.

During Target Circle Week, Target super fans — more, specifically, Target Circle members — can access thousands of deals up to 50% off across home goods, beauty, fashion, electronics, kitchen appliances and more.

But before you run to your nearest Target location or fill your cart with favorites, you’ll want to be up to speed on everything about this much-anticipated pre-holiday shopping promotion.

Here’s what to know about Target Circle Week.

When is Target Circle Week?

Target Circle Week will run from Sunday, Oct. 6 through Saturday, Oct. 12. This sale is going on at the same time as Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days and Walmart’s Holiday Deals Sale. The deals during Target Circle Week look like a great event to shop for those waiting for Target’s Black Friday deals to drop.

What sales can shoppers expect?

The week-long event is a prime opportunity for shoppers to snag major deals, upwards of 30% or more off, in stores, online and through the Target App — all in time for early holiday shopping.

In addition to deep discounts on seasonal scores like Halloween costumes and fall decor, customers can expect Deals of the Day in every product category, including:

• 30% off sweaters, sweatshirts, and bottoms for all ages
• Up to 50% off select kitchen appliances
• 30% off select luggage
• 30% off Threshold bedding and bath
• Up to 40% off select floor care items from big names like Dyson, Shark and Bissell

Spends above a certain threshold in select categories also may qualify you for free Target gift cards: $10, when you spend $40 on healthcare and beauty items; $15, when you spend $50 on household cleaning essentials, among others.

Is everyone eligible to shop Target Circle Week?

Similar to Amazon Prime Day being open only to Prime members, only Target Circle members can take advantage of Target Circle Week deals. Fortunately, even if you’re not a loyalty member already, you can sign up for free in advance of Oct. 6 to enjoy automatic access to exclusive deals at checkout and earn rewards with personalized offers.
