For the deal hunters out there, Target is a good retailer to keep tabs on. It runs weekly deals that reset each Sunday, as well as daily deals and limited-time sales, some of which require a Target Circle account to access. If you’re wondering what’s worth buying at Target today, you’ve come to the right place.

Below, we’re tracking the best deals available at the red bullseye retailer. And if you’re wondering about the benefits of Target Circle or having a RedCard, keep on scrolling, because we’ve got answers further down the page.

Xbox Elite Core Wireless Controller (Red) for $96

The basic Xbox controller that comes with the Series X and S is the best controller I’ve ever used. This elite core version of the controller adds extra functionality, like adjustable tension thumbsticks, a wrap-around rubberized grip, and hair triggers for quicker kills in online games. And with this deal, it doesn’t cost much more than a standard controller anyway.

Apple iPad (10th Gen) is $100 Off

The latest and greatest baseline iPad is on sale at Target right now for $100 off. It’s a 10.9-inch tablet that packs a powerful A14 Bionic chip, which ought to be more than enough to handle all of your tablet needs with aplomb. This is the first baseline iPad to do away with the home button, which gives you more screen real estate for streaming videos, playing games, catching up on email, browsing the web, or whatever else you want to do on a tablet. If you're wondering if you need the 10th gen model, check out our iPad 9th vs 10th gen comparison.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor for $34.99

You might have missed out on this gem when it came out last year, because it launched in a particularly busy time for games. But it’s definitely worth playing, as they’ve further honed everything that made Jedi: Fallen Order great, while filing off the rough edges (see our review for details). This is a great deal at half price. And if you’ve already played it (or don’t want to) you can find tons of similar discounts on other recent hits at Target.

AirPods Pro (2nd Gen, USB-C) are $189

If you’re in the market for a pair of wireless noise-canceling earbuds, this is the deal for you. Apple sells them for $250 and never puts them on sale, but you can snag a pair from Target for the all-time low price of $189. This is the newest model, with a USB-C charging port (it also supports MagSafe wireless charging). The active noise cancelation is phenomenal, and the audio quality sounds just right.

Sony Pulse Explore Wireless Earbuds for PS5 Are in Stock

This isn’t a deal per se, but these earbuds are sold out nearly everywhere else. So if you’ve been trying to get your hands on a pair of Sony’s Pulse Explore earbuds for PS5, this is your chance. Grab them if you want them, because they might not be available for long. Check out our Pulse Explore Wireless Earbuds review for more info.

Roku Streaming Stick 4K

Most TVs sold these days are smart TVs. But what if the smart features aren’t up to snuff? What if they’re painfully slow to load? And what if you have an older TV that works fine but doesn’t have smart features? In either case, you can plug in this 4K Roku Streaming Stick to make any TV a modern, fast smart TV, with Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV+, and all the other streaming services you need to get by in the modern TV landscape.

What is Target Circle?

Target Circle is the retailer’s rewards program. The biggest thing it does is grant you access to special discounts and sales that run pretty often both in store and online. Note that you may have to click a button to trigger the discount for online Target Circle sales. Target Circle members also get 1% earnings on purchases that you can redeem later, plus 5% off a single purchase for their birthday. You can sign up and learn more about the program here.

What is Target RedCard?

RedCard is a card that’s issued by Target. It comes in three formats: credit card, debit card, and reloadable account. Some of the features will depend on which one you get, but they all offer the same basic features. These include saving 5% at Target in store and online, free two-day shipping from Target.com, access to special items and offers, and an additional 30 days for returns and exchanges.

Basically, if you shop at Target regularly, getting a RedCard is a good idea. There are no annual or monthly fees, and it saves you money each time you use it. Getting access to exclusive sales and deals is a pretty nice bonus as well. You can find more details, and apply for a RedCard, here.
