Extended holiday shopping hours

Target is extending its holiday shopping hours this season, keeping stores open from 7 a.m. to midnight from Nov. 30 through Dec. 23 to accommodate shoppers during the busiest times of the year.

Customers can also take advantage of Black Friday deals and holiday sales around the clock through Target’s website and app.

New Taylor Swift merch

Target's Black Friday offerings will include a pair of exclusive releases that are likely to drive fans into stores.

On Friday, Nov. 29, the retailer will launch Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Book, a 256-page hardcover collection packed with more than 500 photos and personal reflections from the pop star herself. Swift fans will also find The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology available on vinyl and CD, another exclusive item likely aimed at the holiday rush.

Both the book and the album will be available in-store on Black Friday with a limit of four per guest.

For fans preferring to shop online, the items will also be available on the Target app and website starting early Saturday, Nov. 30, while supplies last.
