What to expect at Target’s Black Friday 2023 Sale

We’re already looking forward to Target’s Black Friday 2023 sale. Although we still have a long ways to go, you can already slowly start planning for the event. Check out last year’s ad and offer details posted below to get a general idea of the type of deals that they like to run. And if you join our newsletter, you’ll be the first to know once their Black Friday 2023 ad is posted.


Black Friday 2023 Start & End Dates

Target has been following similar BF sales trends as we’ve been seeing from the other large big-box stores, such as Walmart; rather than one sale on or around Thanksgiving, you can expect an extended event beginning at the end of October with different deals running each week for 4 weeks straight. Then they typically top it off with a “doorbuster deals” ad that’s live for 3 days, from Thanksgiving day through Saturday, or while supplies last.

  • Expected sale start/end dates: The Black Friday 2023 event is expected to begin on or around Sunday October 29th with new deals being released every week on Sunday throughout the month of November:
    • Expected BF Ad #1: Oct. 29-Nov. 4, 2023.
    • Expected BF Ad #2: November 5-11, 2023.
    • Expected BF Ad #3: November 12-18, 2023.
    • Expected BF Ad #4: November 19-25, 2023.
    • Expected BF Doorbuster Ad: November 23-25, 2023.

Keep in mind that these dates are still just our predictions and, at the moment, unconfirmed. We’ll post the official sale dates for 2023 as soon as we are able to confirm them.
