Target Just Released Its Black Friday Sneak Peek With Great Deals on Nintendo Switch

These Nintendo Switch holiday bundles are already a pretty good deal. For the cost of the Switch console, you're also getting the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game and a one year Nintendo Switch online membership. However, come Sunday, Target is taking an extra $75 off each bundle. The Switch OLED bundle will be marked down to $275 and the Switch bundle will be down to $225. It's refreshing to finally see a better Nintendo Switch deal after years of the same thing.

If you thought the Meta Quest 3S was attractively priced at $299.99, well this deal will blow your socks off. As I predicted, instead of offering a straight up discount, Target is throwing in a bonus $75 gift card with your purchase. The Quest 3s adopts many of the same features of the Quest 3, like the new Touch controllers, the upgraded SnapDragon APU, and full color AR passthrough. In his 9/10 Quest 3S review, Gabriel Moss wrote that "raw processing power, full-color passthrough, and snappy Touch Plus controllers make the Quest 3S a fantastic standalone VR headset that also brings entry-level mixed-reality gaming to the masses for – arguably – the very first time."

The incredible The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom game for Nintendo Switch will drop to $39.99 on November 25. In our review, we awarded this game a well deserved "Masterpiece" 10/10 rating. Tom Marks wrote that "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is an unfathomable follow-up, expanding a world that already felt full beyond expectation and raising the bar ever higher into the clouds."

For those of you who have been patiently holding out on the $49.99 Star Wars Outlaws offer, well kudos to you. Target will slash the price to $39.99 on Sunday and that will be the time to strike. This is a good time to get into the game since Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment recently deployed a massive update bringing a host of performance and gameplay enhancements, a range of visual improvements, and bug fixes to the open-world sci-fi game on console and PC.

The Meta Wayfarer glasses are certainly an intriguing device, but many of you might not be lured in by the $300 price tag. Well what if I told you that you could get it for $60 less and Target will even toss in a bonus $90 Target gift card. If you're a regular Target shopper like myself, that's essentially as good as cash. These Wayfarer glasses are an influencer's dream; they have a built-in camera and speakers so you can take videos and photos without every reaching for your phone.

This is easily the best TV deal in Target's ad scan, which is why it's on the frontpage. Target will drop the price on this Westinghouse TV from $499.99 to $399.99. This will make it one of the least expensive 75" TVs we'll see for Black Friday. Aside from the absolutely gigantic screen size, a native 4K resolution, and 60Hz refresh rate, this TV also features the Roku smart interface. I personally prefer Roku over Fire TV or Google TV because it's more intuitive to use.

Who says Thanksgiving get-togethers have to be expensive for the host? Target is offering enough food to provide for a Thanksgiving meal for four for under $20. The list includes a 10 pound turkey, potatoes, cranberry sauce, stuffing, gravy, cream of mushroom soup & green beans. This deal is already live.

Like Amazon and Walmart, Target has its own paid membership that offers great perks in addition to the great deals you are entitled to as a Target Circle member. Dubbed "Target Circle 360", this membership normally costs $100 per year, but the price drops to $50 for Black Friday. Exclusive perks include free 2-day shipping with no minimum, free same-day delivery on orders over $35, delivery to other addresses, and an additional 30 days added to your return window.

Who doesn't love a good ol' freebie for Black Friday. Target is offering a free pair of fuzzy wuzzy Target Adult Bullseye Slippers for Target Circle 360 members. These slippers normally cost $15 so if you sign up for the membership at the promotional price of $50, you're already a third of the way towards getting your money's worth!

When Is Black Friday 2024?

The actual date of Black Friday in 2024 falls on November 29, but the holiday deals season starts a lot earlier than that. Plenty of retailers have already been dropping deals online. (This usually starts in the last week of October, just before Halloween.) More and more deals will roll out leading up to the event, which culminates in massive discounts on Black Friday. Retailers will not reveal their biggest Bdeals until the big day, but many deals will be available well in advance.
