Shop Target’s early Black Friday deals: A $200 iPad, half off Christmas decor and more
If you’re anything like us, you love to shop — and Black Friday sales are like our Super Bowl. We’ve been training for this all year, researching the biggest price drops and scraping the fake deals. Of course, the big event is just about two weeks away, but Target is kicking things off early. That’s right — you don’t have to wait to shop the Target Black Friday Sale to score the retailer’s best deals. Leading up to the big day, Target will release a slew of new deals each week (and a new big one each day). You can save up to 50% on home goods, electronics, clothes, shoes, beauty products, household essentials and more.
For starters, Target will release a new Deal of the Day every day leading up to Dec. 24 for Target Circle members. (Membership is free and it only takes about five minutes to join, so honestly, it’s worth signing up.) On Sundays, it’s also releasing new weeklong deals that will last through the following Saturday. You can preview the deals for the week ahead by visiting the Target Weekly Ad on the Friday before. And if that’s not enough, Target is offering its annual Holiday Price Match Guarantee. The guarantee, available through Dec. 24, promises that if you purchase an item and Target discounts it even more later in the season, the retailer will match it. So, no matter when you shop, you can get the lowest price.
Here’s a look at some of the best deals happening this week:

This iPad has been around for close to three years, but its technology is still top of the line. Get it while it’s on sale, and if you’re a Target Circle member, you’ll also get 15% off a Logitech Crayon to use with it.
That said, the iPad features a liquid retina display with True Tone technology that adjusts to the color temperature of the room, making viewing easy in any light. Shoppers especially love how fast it is. Its A13 bionic chip delivers powerful performance, whether you’re watching movies, gaming or finally writing that term paper. Plus, it offers up to 10 hours of steady battery life.

Looking forward to the holidays? Save up to 50% on select artificial Christmas trees, ornaments and decor. This 6.5-foot stunner is pre-lit with dual color lights, meaning you can switch it from white lights to colorful ones with the touch of a button. The slimmer design takes up less room while still making a festive statement.
This baby launched in March 2024, and it can turn frozen food into a hot, crispy meal fast. Of course, in addition to air-frying, it can roast, reheat and dehydrate foods. And with a 5-quart basket, it’s big enough to roast a whole chicken or cook a 1.5-pound bag of fries. You may never turn on your oven again (OK, or at least for a while.)
Save $150 on this top-of-the-line LG television, complete with 4K resolution and all the streaming capabilities you’d ever need. What really makes it stand out, though, is its AI technology. The α8 AI Processor can detect what you’re watching and automatically adjust the picture and sound quality for optimal viewing.
While Beats do go on sale from time to time, this is a great price on the brand’s latest version of its over-ear headphones. Here are the highlights: They’re wireless, foldable and durable, and offer up to 50 hours of battery life. If you tend to forget to charge your things, you’ll be happy to learn that 10 minutes of charging gives you up to five hours of playback when the battery is low.
Keeping your coffee or tea hot can be difficult while you’re dashing around the house on a busy morning. That’s where the Ember mug comes in. It connects to an app on your phone so you can control the temperature. Yahoo’s tech editor, Rick Broida, named it the best heated coffee mug of the year.
Enjoy a cup of coffee in bed (or at least delay heading out for the day) with the incredibly compact Keurig K-Mini, now a full third off its original price. And when we say compact, we mean it: It’s just under 5 inches wide, so it won’t take up much room on your countertop. Its diminutive size is pretty cute, and it comes in five colors, including pale teal and vibrant forest green. Oh, and it’s great for tea and cocoa too.
