Black Friday is almost here, and Target is offering notable deals before and during the event. Right now, you’ll find sales on tech, home appliances, beauty and more, many of which run through Cyber Monday.
I cover the biggest sales of the year as a writer for NBC Select, so I know how to find deals that are actually worth buying. I spent weeks combing through thousands of discounts to find the best early Black Friday deals at Target— each one I recommend below is highly rated and 20% off or more. When possible, I ran deals through price trackers to make sure they’re at their lowest price in at least three months or the lowest price ever. I’ll frequently update this list throughout Black Friday.

Best early Black Friday Target deals
Bose makes some of our favorite over-ear headphones, including the Bluetooth QuietComfort, which have active noise cancellation and up to 24 hours of playtime, according to the brand. The headphones also block out loud noises (like the sound of strong winds) in both quiet and aware modes.
This TCL smart TV comes in five sizes, each with great 4K UHD resolution. It’s backlit with a high brightness background to enhance your shows and movies, and has Dolby Atmos and Bluetooth audio, so you can listen to whatever you’re watching from your favorite pair of headphones. Since it’s a smart TV, it’s also compatible with voice commands and Google’s Chromecast.
The Ring video doorbell is one of the best ways to give yourself a sense of security when you aren’t home. It has motion sensing, so it alerts you when someone is at your door and takes an HD video (you can set it to record 24/7 or only when it senses motion). It also allows you to communicate with people remotely using two-way audio via the companion app.
The Garmin Forerunner is one of the best smart watches and fitness trackers available, according to NBC tech reporter Harry Rabinowitz, who tested out the watch. It has up to two weeks of battery life, according to the brand. It tracks sleep habits, run times and distances, monitors your heart rate and has GPS tracking. It can also recommend custom workouts and exercises to help you reach a fitness goal.
We feature multiple JBL speakers on our list of the best portable speakers, The JBL Go4 is portable and has a loop on the side so you can connect it to your backpack or tote. It’s both water- and dust-resistant, and it has up to seven hours of playtime, according to the brand.
This machine-washable comforter set is made of a hypoallergenic microfiber material, so it’s safe for those with sensitive skin, according to the brand. It’s available in multiple styles and sizes, from twin to California king. The set includes a comforter and one pillow sham.
The Shark Navigator is one of our favorite upright vacuums and an annual bestseller here at NBC Select. It’s lightweight at just 15 pounds and powerful enough to clean up dust, dirt, pet hair and other debris from carpet, bare floors and other surfaces. It has a HEPA filter to capture allergens, and the top detaches so you can use it as a portable vacuum.
Philips makes some of the best electric toothbrushes, including the Sonicare 4100. It has two intensity settings and a pressure sensor to make sure you aren’t brushing too hard. One charge lasts up to two weeks, according to the brand, and it reminds you when it’s time to replace your brush head.
This pillow provides support to the back of your neck and cervical spine. Since it’s made of memory foam, it reduces pressure points around your body, according to the brand. Plus, the breathable material keeps you cool while you sleep, according to Hyleory. It also comes with a removable, machine-washable cover.

How I found the best Black Friday Target deals
All of my recommendations above are based on NBC Select’s previous coverage and reporting, including products the NBC Select staff tested firsthand. I vetted each deal to make sure it’s 20% off or more and highly rated with at least a 4.0-star average rating from hundreds of reviews. When possible, I ran deals through price trackers like CamelCamelCamel to prioritize highlighting products that are at their lowest price in at least three months or the lowest price ever.
I also wrote about every deal in this article and worked with NBC Select editors to finalize the live list, which I’m frequently updating throughout Black Friday to reflect the most up-to-date prices. For more information on our editorial team and how we choose products, check out this page.
