The best early Target Circle Deal Days deals:
Target Circle Deal Days officially runs Oct. 6–7. If those dates sound familiar, it’s because Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days (aka October Prime Day) falls on the exact same days.
Target originally introduced its Circle sale in 2019 to compete with Amazon’s once-a-year summer event. Now that Amazon has stretched its sales calendar into the fall, Target is right there with them, dropping early holiday discounts for Circle members (it’s free to join!) well before Black Friday even enters the chat.
But you don’t have to wait for Oct. 6 to find a good deal. Target already has a handful of early discounts live for Circle members. Here are the best early Target Circle deals you can shop now.

Why we like it
As you all know, we love a good Apple deal. Right now, you can get the Apple Watch Series 11 (GPS, 42mm) for $349.99, down from $399.99, at Target. That’s a $50 discount, and it’s the best deal you’ll find on this watch right now — Best Buy’s charging $499 (over the retail price), and Amazon doesn’t even have it in stock.
The lowest price we’ve ever seen was $279 back in June, so it’s definitely possible it could drop to that price again during Prime Day. But if you’d rather not wait, you can get it today for $50 off (not too shabby for a 2025 model).

Why we like it
We’re a little obsessed with the Sony XM5 headphones. Mashable’s Deputy Shopping Editor, Miller Kern, awarded them a Mashable Choice Award in 2022, and we’re still talking about them today thanks to their sleek design, noise cancelation, and “unbeatable sound quality.”
And right now, you can get them for $299.99, down from $399.99. (Amazon has them for $298, if you want to save an extra buck.) That said, we did see these headphones drop to $198 during June’s Prime Day event. It’s totally up to you if you want to wait and see if Amazon hits that price again next week, but if you don’t want to risk missing out, grabbing them for $100 off at Target today is a safe play.

Why we like it
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly laptop that doesn’t skimp on features, the 14-inch HP HD Touchscreen Notebook (Intel N150, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD) is currently on sale for (wait for it) $299.99 at Target. That’s the lowest price we’ve ever tracked for this laptop.
That’s honestly a crazy-good deal for a touchscreen laptop that comes with a wireless mouse and a one-year M365 subscription. It’s also in a super cute colorway (Winter Lavender), which usually costs more, so this is def a deal we’d recommend jumping on.
Note: Amazon is matching this deal, but if you want to save even more and don’t care about the extras (aka the mouse and M365 subscription), you can get it in Natural Silver at Best Buy for $219.99.
