The conventional wisdom with Target is that you walk in looking for one thing and end leaving with that thing — plus a scented candle, clearance pens, a fuzzy scarf, and a really great T-shirt. Shopping Target’s Cyber Monday deals online can invoke a similar feeling of wanting everything. To make the sale easier to navigate, we’ve combed through to find the best deals on items we’re excited about, most of which we’ve written about before (and some of which are our best-in-class picks for their product category). There are a lot of Cyber Monday classics — some incredible deals on kitchen appliances, electronics, and vacuums — and many of the items we found make great gifts.
In addition to Target’s sale, there are many other good sales going on right now, and you can find all our sales coverage here. If you want more inspiration for holiday shopping, we have gift guides for everyone — from husbands and wives to birdwatchers and knitters.
