Target Centers Private Brands During Back-to-School Savings Events
Following the 4th of July weekend, Target is promoting its own brands like up & up, Cat & Jack, Mondo Llama, Room Essentials, Wild Fable and more for its back-to-school and back-to-college savings events.
New this year, Target has increased its Target Circle offer for college students, discounting 20% off a one-time purchase from July 3 – Sept. 3, an increased discount from 15% last year.
Target also extended its popular Teacher Prep Event, running from July 17 – Sept. 10, nearly six weeks longer than last year, giving teachers the opportunity to save 15% on school supplies and more. All K-12 teachers, homeschool teachers, teachers working at daycare centers and early childhood learning centers, university or college professors and vocational/trade/technical school teachers with valid identification are eligible.
"We know the back-to-school season signals an important milestone for millions of families across the country – and we're here to help by introducing even more ways for guests to save and find everything they need all in one convenient location," said Jill Sando, executive vice president and chief merchandising officer, Target. "From supplies and stylish apparel to snacks and the latest electronics, guests can count on Target to make the most of their budgets, with thousands of items under $10."
Target’s new savings go further than just these two programs. All Target stores in states with sales-tax holiday events will not charge sales tax, giving guests in those areas another way to save. Guests can learn more about their state's sales tax holiday here.
Target Deal Days will run July 11 - July 13 with no membership required, offering savings on top tech, apparel, beauty and more. For help planning, Target is offering tools like School List Assist and College Registry to help students and their families plan and save ahead of the fall.
The retailer is also promoting its free and fast Order Pickup and Drive Up services during the sales events.
