Overview
- Price reductions began earlier in November on food, beverages and household basics, with sample cuts such as Kraft Mac & Cheese to $1.69 and Pillsbury pie crust to $3.19.
- A four-person Thanksgiving meal bundle is under $20 before tax, which Target calls its lowest price for the offering.
- The cuts exclude Alaska and Hawaii and can vary by store location.
- Target announced a $500,000 gift to Feeding America that it says will help provide 5 million meals.
- The company says the pricing push is unrelated to the federal shutdown or SNAP as court rulings left November benefits uncertain in some states, and it also confirmed about 1,800 corporate job cuts while competitors roll out similar holiday discounts.
