Target is among the first big retailers to kick off the 2024 Black Friday shopping season. Target's early sale starts today and will end on Saturday, which means you get three days of Black Friday deals on TVs, air fryers, iPads, headphones, vacuums, toys, Christmas decor, and more.

As TechRadar's deals editor, it's my seventh year covering Black Friday, so I've gone through Target's early sale and hand-picked the 13 best deals below. I've also listed links to Target's best Black Friday sales on clothing, Christmas trees, best-selling toys, furniture, and Apple devices.
Perhaps the best part about Target's early Black Friday deals, besides the offers themselves, is the Holiday Price Match Guarantee. If the price of an item goes lower between November 7 and December 24, the retailer will match it. This allows you to shop confidently at Target during the Black Friday shopping season.
Target's early Black Friday deals allow you to snag a bargain and do some early Christmas shopping, but remember that all offers will end on Saturday. Target's official Black Friday sale will begin on Thanksgiving day online and will be in stores on Black Friday proper (November 29).

Dyson V8 Origin cordless stick vacuum: was $429.99 now $299.99 at Target
The Dyson V8 is one of the older models in the company's range these days, but it's still a super vac, and today's Black Friday deal brings the price down to a record low of $299.99. Our Dyson V8 review awarded the model four and a half stars out of five, giving it a glowing recommendation. It's powerful for a cordless, features an easy-to-use design, and is still a versatile vacuum for everyday use.
Roku Plus Series 50-inch 4K Smart TV: was $279.99 now $249.99 at Target

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones: was $429 now $329 at Target
These premium Bose headphones offer the best noise cancellation you can buy with rich and energetic sound quality, and they're a fantastic pickup at this record-low price. Our Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones review highlighted the only real downside as the below-average battery life (even though it's still a respectable 24-hour), but that's worth living with to get a super-comfortable and top-performing pair of cans.
