Target Aims To Lure Shoppers With Early Black Friday Deals

Target is aiming to cash in on this year's black Friday sales. The chain retailer plans to offer customers access to black Friday deals before the Thanksgiving Holiday. Tempting offers for shoppers will include a day long online sale on Monday and early access to some of the holiday discount deals the day before thanks giving on 26th November. Eager bargain hunters will also be rewarded with early morning online deals on Thanksgiving morning. Target has also eliminated shipping fees on orders under $50 for the Christmas rush period. The move drove a 30% boost in online sales in the first 48 hours of free shipping. Target hopes the black Friday blow out will boost sluggish sales following last years data theft disaster.
