All Target Circle members get access to “Deal of the Day” offers, and steep discounts across categories.
Target Circle 360 members get early access (typically 24 hours before the start) and additional perks like free same‑day delivery, exclusive product drops and giveaways.
For 2025, Target has emphasized this October event as the kickoff to early holiday and Halloween shopping.
