The preview sale has four times the number of deals compared to last year, the company said, and it’s been expanded to two days. Sales will last from Friday to Saturday during store hours and from 2:59 a.m. Friday until 2:59 a.m. Sunday.

“This is the busiest time of year for our guests, and with the shortened season, we want to make it as easy as possible for them to cross everything off their holiday list at Target. That’s why we’re introducing HoliDeals, which will feature savings on thousands of items throughout the season, and it all kicks off this weekend,” said Rick Gomez, executive vice president, chief marketing and digital officer of Target.

Target’s Black Friday sale will last from 5 p.m. Thanksgiving to 1 a.m. on Black Friday and then resume at 7 a.m. Friday.
