For You: The Best Target Deals To Grab Now Before Summer Ends
1. Good & Gather Frozen Roasted Sweet Potato Chunks
Price: $2.69
If you’re going to buy food now that will last for fall and help stretch your food budget, you want hearty foods that are either freezable or shelf stable. Target’s own Good & Gather brand frozen roasted sweet potato chunks can be added to other meal-stretching staples like rice and pasta for delicious, healthy flair. Buy several 12 ounce bags and keep them in the freezer for fall.
2. bella Slim Air Fryer
Price: $49.99 (typically) $59.99
Air fryers are great for making small, quick, healthy meals, and their variety of sizes make them perfect for small to medium kitchens, dorm rooms, offices, and more. This bella slim air fryer is four quarts and 1300 watts for a great price.
3. Multivitamins
Price: $14.99 (women’s), $11.99 (kids)
Fall may bring cooler weather and beautiful foliage, but it also brings cold and flu season. Get ahead of it with affordable multi-vitamins. Like these Nature Made multivitamin gummies 50+ for women, or these L’il Critters gummy vites for children.
4. Sunbeam Heated Throw Blanket
Price: $34.99
If you’re trying to keep your heating costs down as the weather cools, consider this Sunbeam heated throw blanket in garnet red. Wear it at home or at work to keep only your body (and possibly a buddy) toasty without having to run the heater. The blanket is 50 inches by 60 inches with three settings to maximize your warmth.
5. Ultra Soft Three-Ply Facial Tissue
Price: $5.69 (per four pack)
If your multi-vitamins don’t do the trick of preventing you from catching a cold or flu, it’s always good to have lots of soft three-ply facial tissue on hand, especially if you have kids of almost any age. The young ones have a way of bringing home every germ that passes through school.
6. Goodles Protein Pasta Curveballs
Price: $2.59
While pasta is an easy shelf-stable food item to keep on hand in your pantry, Goodles' eight-ounce box of dry protein pasta (in curveballs shape) has something most other pasta doesn’t: Extra protein. This makes every meal more nutritious than those with just regular pasta.
