Because the Target Black Friday sale really is the official kick-off of the holiday season, right? Here’s everything we know, so far, about what’s happening over at Target right now.
We love Target, of course. And we love their Black Friday sales and deals just as much as the next person. Now we don’t love that they’re typically open on Thanksgiving, but at least we have a place to go when we’re ready to escape our family after getting drunk on turkey and stuffing. I mean, how many naps can someone take during the day, really?

What’s the Deal With Target’s Black Friday Hours?
You usually will get a sneak peak on Thanksgiving Day (Nov 22, 2018) and the store will be open for this sale between the hours of 6pm – 12:00 midnight. That’s what happened last year and this year they’ll likely follow suit. At midnight Target will close (get those prized items while you can!) and then will officially open again for Black Friday on the 23rd starting at 6 a.m. Of course you can line up as early as you’d like. Perhaps leave at midnight and just get in line. Bring a tent and some booze!
When Will the Official Ad Be Available?
This one is usually a bit tricky to answer. Last year they released their Black Friday ad on Monday, November 6th so it gave you a ton of time to prepare for what you want to buy, see what’s on sale, and get your strategy going. If it follows the same pattern as last year, this year in 2018 we predict they’ll release the ad on Monday, November 5th. Check back as it gets closer and we’ll share the ad as soon as it leaks!
