Everyone has a retailer they're loyal to, and often it depends on what's closest to home. If Target happens to be your retailer of choice, then we've got some great news about their Black Friday sale. This year, Target's Black Friday sale kicked off early, bringing major discounts on Apple AirPods and TCL's dupe of The Frame.

Don't hold off too long on shopping — Target's Black Friday sale wraps up on Saturday, Nov. 29. While you can still shop the retailer's Cyber Monday sale online the days following, the in-store Black Friday shopping experience will wind down on Saturday. Here's everything you need to know about Target's Black Friday sale including its opening and closing hours, early access info, and the best deals to shop now.

When exactly is Target's Black Friday Sale?

This year, Black Friday takes place on Friday, Nov. 28, but Target's sale started long before that. Target's Black Friday sale officially runs from Sunday, Nov. 23 to Saturday, Nov. 29. However, Target will drop even more deals Nov. 27-29. After Black Friday wraps up, Cyber Monday starts on Sunday, Nov. 30 and runs through Monday, Dec. 1.

On Friday, Nov. 28, Target stores opened at 6 a.m. local time and will close at their regular time (typically 10 p.m.). It's best to check your local store's hours ahead of time.

Target made waking at the crack of dawn to shop worthwhile this year, as the first 100 guests in line on Black Friday received a limited-edition iridescent tote filled with giveaways. Among those 100 totes, 10 lucky shoppers got an extra surprise inside, ranging in value from $99 to $350. Surprise gifts include Target Circle 360 membership, $100 Target GiftCard, Laifen Hair Dryer, Ninja Slushie machine or Beats Solo 4 headphones.
