School prices to remain constant as per Target's decision on back-to-school supplies

Target is gearing up for its annual back-to-school shopping season, with a host of exciting offers and discounts planned for the Target Circle Week promotion, set to take place from July 6-12.

The retail giant is bringing back its student and teacher discounts during this period, offering additional savings on school supplies, electronics, and related products. Customers can expect exclusive deals on kids' apparel, backpacks, and electronics, as well as discounts on essential items like notebooks, starting at just $0.35.

Target is also launching a Herschel x LEGO collection of adult and kids' backpacks, adding a fun and trendy touch to its back-to-school offerings. For those seeking more budget-friendly options, Target's private label brands and partner collections are expanding to include more affordable products.

The retailer is also dropping a new line of Champion for Target activewear and sporting goods, providing students with stylish and practical gear for physical education and extracurricular activities.

In addition, Target Corp., ranked No. 7 on The PG 100, is planning to open a large-format location in Denton North, featuring a bigger-than-average fresh and frozen food and beverage section. The store will also carry more classroom and college items, including MLily mattresses and French Toast uniforms, under the Target Plus brand.

Target has historically maintained competitive pricing on essential school supplies, offering discounts on staple items like notebooks, backpacks, and lunch boxes. The total cost of Target's annual list of 20 essential school supplies (crayons, colored pencils, notebooks, folders) is less than $20. Backpacks at Target have a $5 price tag, making them an affordable choice for students and parents.

The retail industry is facing concerns about potential supply chain disruptions and higher prices due to tariffs during the back-to-school shopping season. However, Target is maintaining 2024 prices on many back-to-school essential education-related supplies.

In an effort to attract customers, grocery sales have been trending down, with retailers leaning into promotions and sales. Target is offering more than 1,000 SKUs for $5 and under, providing shoppers with a wide range of affordable options.

Matt Drzewicki has been named SVP for Target's retail media arm, marking a new chapter in the company's growth and development. With these exciting offerings and strategic moves, Target is poised to make the 2022 back-to-school shopping season a successful one.
