Black Friday: Target’s Black Friday sale hours, top deals

Target doesn’t just do Black Friday. Before the retailer’s Black Friday weekend deals start on Thanksgiving, there’s already been some Black Friday week deals kicking in.
If you are ready to shop, the Minneapolis-headquartered retailer has deals already available online and in its nearly 2,000 stores. There’s more specials coming for Black Friday – overall, up to 50% off on thousands of items including off clothing, tech, video games, small appliances, luggage and holiday decorations.
“Black Friday is all about great deals, so Target is offering some of our best prices of the season to help everyone save money as they share the magic of the holidays with their loved ones,” said Rick Gomez, Target’s executive vice president and chief commercial officer, in a press release.
