The 25 Best Early Black Friday Deals at Target

When I go to Target, I have a carefully prepared list in mind that I fully intend to stick to. And yet, somehow, a tiny soccer ball and a vacuum cleaner find their way to my cart alongside the body soap and measuring cups I’m actually there to buy. Since I’m always irrationally proud of myself for having only bought one soccer ball when I really wanted two, I’ve learned to implement rules over the years: I can prepay online to pick up in person, ship products to my house, or visit the store sans list if there’s a major sale going on. Which there is. Right now. 

Target just announced that it reduced prices on more than 2,000 products ahead of Black Friday and the holidays. And after doing a deep dive through the sale section, I found the 25 best deals on cookware, small appliances, kitchen gadgets, food storage, and patio furniture. The best part? My picks are up to 73% off for a limited time.

Best Kitchen Gadgets and Tools Deals at Target

When you’re flipping hamburgers or sliding a fried egg out of a skillet, it pays to have a sturdy and reliable spatula near to hand. Stainless steel is an especially useful material since it can’t burn and won’t melt like other styles too often do. 

Winco Apple Corer

Apples are everywhere right now, and for good reason. They’re at their peak and just begging to be baked into pies or stuffed with brown sugar and nuts, which is why we’re snagging this corer while it’s on sale at Target.

Zwilling’s Fresh & Save food storage containers are designed to keep your food fresher for longer with its vacuum seal technology. The pump is sold separately, but this set of two containers is a great investment if you’re looking for versatile, durable, and functional pieces that were designed to last.
