Target Circle Week is here to take some of the spotlight off Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days. The big box retailer wants you to know that October Prime Day isn't the only show in town. From now through Saturday, October 12, Target Circle Week offers holiday-like deals on select laptops, tablets, headphones, wearables, video games, and more.

October is synonymous with Halloween, scary movies, pumpkin spice lattes, and Black Friday in October.

Let's face it: online shopping is the new norm, yet there are times when you don't want to wait and prefer in-store pickup. That's where brick-and-mortar stores like Target come in. Instead of waiting for shipping and watching for porch pirates or lobby larceners, you can order online and pick it up the same day.

Unlike Amazon Prime, My Best Buy Plus, and Walmart Plus, Target Circle is free to join and has no strings attached. As a member, you get perks like access to exclusive deals and earn 1% of reward savings on purchases.

So what are you waiting for? Join Target Circle for free now to shop this week's exclusive deals through October 12. Browse more of my favorite Target Circle Week discounts below.
