Spring has traditionally not been as significant an online shopping season compared to others, especially with major events like Prime Day in the summer, October Prime Day and Black Friday in the fall, followed by various holiday sales in winter. However, this trend may be shifting with Amazon’s second annual Big Spring Sale. In addition, Target is also stepping up to compete for your shopping dollars with its upcoming Circle Week event later this month.
What is Target’s Circle Week?
Circle Week represents Target’s major sale event, which has evolved from being an annual occasion to now occurring multiple times a year, much to the surprise of Target employees. You can generally expect Circle Week to coincide with other significant retail sales during the year, such as Christmas or October Prime Day.
When is Circle Week?
The next Circle Week is scheduled for March 23 to March 29.
Do you need to be a member to shop for Target Circle Week?
In contrast to Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, participating in Circle Week requires you to be a Circle member. Fortunately, membership is free and can be obtained through the Target app or on Target.com.
What deals can I find during Target Circle Week?
The sale primarily features spring items, with categories that include apparel, patio furniture, home essentials, beauty products, groceries, toys, books, movies, and music. You can shop either in person or online, and there will be a “Deal of the Day” available throughout the event. For those looking for early access to deals, joining Target Circle 360 is an option, starting at $10.99 monthly.
Here are some highlights from Target’s press release:
-
30% off tees, tanks, shorts, and dresses for the family
-
30% off patio furniture and accessories
-
25% off select Pillowfort, teen bedding, and decor

Does the competition also offer sales?
Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is happening from Wednesday, March 20 through Monday, March 25. Additionally, Walmart and Best Buy will also have competing sales during this shopping period.
