Looking for early Black Friday sales? Shop our favorite deals from Target’s Deal Days event as of Oct. 11:


We’re not surprised that this year’s holiday sales are starting earlier than any other year — Amazon unveiled it’s Epic Deals promo on October fourth, and since then, more retailers have been hopping on the pre-Black Friday deals bandwagon. Through Oct. 12, Target’s Deal Days event is on, and it’s a solid place to score some low prices on hot-ticket items (while they’re still in stock).

We’re expecting a hectic holiday season in terms of shopping this year — amid a continuing pandemic, serious supply chain shortages, and a spending season that’s expected to be off-the-charts, shopping for a holiday gift won’t be like previous years. If you’re looking to buy popular items (think AirPods, air fryers, smart home gadgets, and more), you’re not the only one. If you wait too long to buy these items, you may be too late — and no one wants to open an IOU receipt on Christmas morning because their gift was out of stock.

That’s why shopping early holiday sales like Target’s Deal Days is a smart move to check gifts off your wishlist. You’ll get Black Friday-worthy prices, and make sure that all your loved ones get the gifts they really want this year. It’s a win-win.

In case you needed more incentive to shop this sale, Target is also helping out with potential buyer’s remorse by offering price matching from Oct. 10 to Dec. 24. If you purchase a product from Target between these dates and the price drops later in the holiday season, Target will adjust the price for you — so you’re pretty much guaranteed the best deal. Read on for a rundown of our tp picks from Target’s Deal Days promo, or head to Target.com to shop the full sale.

KitchenAid stand mixers were a hot item last holiday season. Like, so hot that you couldn’t find one for months unless you bought it super early — and this year will likely be the same. If there’s a baking connoisseur in your life who could benefit from not having to mix everything by hand, this Target deal is probably your best opportunity to score a high-quality KitchenAid mixer for cheap. This pricing is only available through Oct. 11, so grab one for $150 off while you can.

Be honest: there’s someone in your home who is basically the designated housekeeper. Whether it’s your roommate, your dad, your partner, or yourself, help lighten the load with a robot vacuum. This Roomba model is Wi-Fi connected and Alexa-enabled, so you literally don’t have to lift a finger to get it going — just control your vac with your voice. It’s great for grabbing pet hair thanks to specially-designed brushes and a high-efficiency filter, and it easily adjusts from hard floors to carpet so your entire home gets cleaned with care, no matter the flooring.

This deal matches the current Amazon price for the same model, so if you needed an incentive to buy from a different retailer, here it is.

For the student, traveler, or quiet-lover, the Beats Studio3 are a great noise-canceling headphone pick. You’ll get pure adaptive noise cancellation that adjusts to your environment, up to 22 hours of battery life on a single charge, and the immersive sound Beats are known for — all in a sleek, stylish package.

With options from $179.99 to $199.99 depending on color, Target has cheaper options than Amazon currently offers. Oh, and they have the matte gray version for $199.99 (which is currently over $300 at Amazon).

Thanksgiving and other holiday meals would be a lot easier to prepare with a solid pressure cooker. This Instant Pot is up to the challenge — and it does way more than pressure cook. The air fryer lid can crisp up just about anything, and the normal lid allows you to use functions like pressure cook, slow cook, steam, sauté, and more. At $119.99, this Target deal matches the Amazon price for the eight-quart Instant Pot Duo Crisp, and this is the lowest price we’re seeing currently on this model.

With a roomy 72-oz blender pitcher, a personal smoothie cup, and an added five-cup food processor, this Ninja kitchen system will do triple duty in your kitchen. It features Auto-IQ functionality that make blending as easy as pressing a single button — no guesswork required.

This deal is $10 lower than Amazon’s current price on the same set, so opting to buy from Target will save you some cash. Nice.
