Target is not waiting for the official Black Friday to kick off its holiday shopping specials.

The retailer gets the bargains rolling this week with Deal of the Day specials starting Friday, Nov. 1 – each day through Dec. 24 there’s a new deal for members of the Target Circle free loyalty program (you will find them in the Target app).

Then, next week Target has a new three-day Early Black Friday Sale, running Nov. 7-9 (Thursday to Saturday), with “thousands of hot new deals, many up to 50% off,” the company said in a news release Wednesday.

Also, starting Sunday, Nov. 3, Target has weekly deals, which will run through the holiday season. The first week of deals (Nov. 3-Nov. 9) includes up to 50% off floorcare and headphones, plus up to 30% off baby gear and select home decor, and buy one, get one 50% off toys including Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. You can find all the weekly deals in Target’s Weekly Ad each Friday.

The upcoming holiday shopping season could be a busy one with consumer spending expected to surpass that of last year by 2.5% to 3.5%, according to the National Retail Federation.

“We know consumers have a lot of choices when it comes to holiday shopping, so we’re leaning into what Target does better than anyone – great products, great prices and a shopping experience that’s easy and fun,” said Rick Gomez, executive vice president and chief commercial officer, Target, in a statement.

Retail competitor Walmart also released some Black Friday plans this week, unveiling special sales dates from Nov. 11 through Cyber Monday (Dec. 1).
