MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Target
Corporation (NYSE: TGT) today announced the first in its
series of Weekend Deals, a new holiday sale that will feature
compelling offers, like category-wide discounts on items that
rarely go on sale, both in stores and on Target.com. The deals are
timed for the weekends, when twice as many guests shop than an
average weekday. Weekend Deals begin Nov.
11 and 12, with Target's biggest sale of the year on kitchen
appliances and Thanksgiving prep
essentials.
Throughout November and December Target will offer new Weekend
Deals, designed to give guests meaningful discounts on the items
they are shopping for most during that time in the season. For
example, with Thanksgiving just two
weeks away, the first Weekend Deal offers guests 25 percent off all
kitchen appliances, including brands like KitchenAid and Cuisinart,
with no exclusions, and 15 percent off Thanksgiving prep essentials, like disposable
tableware, napkins, paper towels and more. Guests shopping in
stores will need a coupon for the kitchen appliances offer, which
can be found in the Target app or by texting KITCHEN to TARGET
(827438)*. The Thanksgiving
essentials discount will be applied automatically. Later in the
season, Weekend Deals will include discounts on holiday decorations
and top gifts, as guests get their homes ready for the holidays and
begin shopping for friends and family.
"The holidays can be hectic, and we want to make saving at
Target easier than ever for our guests," said Mark Tritton, executive vice president and chief
merchandising officer, Target. "Our new Weekend Deals do just that
by offering great discounts on the items our guests are shopping
for most when they are doing their weekend Target run. When you
combine the savings we offer through our Weekly Ad and Cartwheel,
plus the festive experiences guests will find at Target stores,
we're offering tremendous value – and a lot of holiday fun – this
season."
More Weekend Deals will be announced throughout the season, and
will be highlighted in the retailer's marketing starting the
Tuesday or Wednesday before the deal is available. Guests can visit
Target's A Bullseye View to learn about upcoming Weekend Deals each
week.
In addition to offering extra savings on the weekends, Target
also will bring joy to guests with engaging experiences in stores
throughout the holiday season. The first moment, on Nov. 11, will offer guests a chance to learn
about some of Target's top toys through demonstrations in the toy
department. In December, guests can pose for photos in an
interactive photo booth, find exclusive giveaways, a hot cocoa and
cookie station and more. Details, including dates and locations of
weekend experiences, are available on Target.com.
