Traditionally, spring hasn’t been a big online shopping season, comparatively speaking. Summer has Prime Day, fall has Prime Deal Days and Black Friday, and there are a bunch of holiday sales during winter. But that has been changing since Amazon’s launched its Big Spring Sale three years ago. And this year, as usual, Target is competing for your dollars with its own spring promotion: Circle Deal Days.

What is Circle Deal Days?

Circle Deal Days is Target’s name for its spring sale event this year. In previous years, Target held Circle Week, which lasted a whole week (like Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, which runs March 25–31). This year, it’s much shorter.

When is Circle Deal Days?

This upcoming Circle Deal Days will be from Wednesday, March 25, to Friday, March 27.

Do you need to be a Target Circle member to shop for Circle Deal Days?

You will need to be a Circle member to take part in the sale, but unlike a Prime membership, membership in Target Circle is free. You can sign up on the Target app or Target.com. If you are part of the paid membership tier, Target Circle 360, which starts at $10.99 per month, you’ll get early access beginning March 24. Target is also offering incentives for those who sign up for Circle or Circle 360 in the lead-up to the sale:

• Join Target Circle between March 15 and 24 and get 15% off your first purchase.

• Apply and get approved for a Target Circle credit card from March 15-27 and get $100 in Target Circle Rewards.

• Sign up for Target Circle 360 March 15-27 will receive 50% off a one-year membership.

There are more details in Target’s press release.

What deals you can expect during Target Circle Deal Days

The sale is mainly focused on spring items, but sale categories will broadly include apparel, patio furniture, home essentials, beauty products, grocery items, toys, books, movies, and music. You can shop in person or online, and there will be a “Deal of the Day” for every day of the event.

Here are some examples of deals you might find, directly from Target’s press release:

• Up to 50% off select toys from Barbie, Gigglescape, PAW Patrol and more

• Up to 40% off women’s apparel including A New Day, Universal Thread and AVA & VIV

More deals are available on the Circle Deal Days landing page.

What competing retailers are also hosting spring sales?

Amazon’s Big Spring Sale will take place Wednesday, March 25, through Tuesday, March 31. Walmart hasn’t confirmed its sale yet, while Best Buy’s Tech Fest is running now through Sunday, March 22.

Bad news, Prime subscribers: Starting April 10, Amazon will lock Prime Video streaming quality to 1080p for “basic” users. If you want to continue watching Prime Video content in 4K as you have been, you’ll need to pay an extra $4.99 per month. Otherwise, your Prime Video shows and movies will look just a bit fuzzier than you may be used to.

It’s part of a number of changes Amazon is making to its streaming services next month. On April 10, Amazon will start offering customers a new “Prime Video Ultra” plan. This option will be ad-free and will come with streaming up to 4K in both Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. You’ll also be able to stream up to five devices at once (as opposed to the current limit of three), as well as download as many as 100 titles (up from 25 on the basic plan).

That plan will cost an extra $4.99 on top of your Prime subscription, which currently runs for $14.99 a month. Amazon currently charges uses an extra $2.99 to access Prime Video without ads, so if you’re already paying for that privilege, you’ll “only” need to pay another $2 for Amazon’s Ultra perks—including the 4K access you already have.

If you choose to keep Amazon’s “basic” Prime Video package as part of your Prime subscription, you’ll still get some new perks, too. While you lose 4K streaming, you will get Dolby Vision (but no Dolby Atmos, though I imagine that won’t matter to the many viewers to watch Prime Video with their TV’s built-in speakers.) You’ll also gain one extra simultaneous stream (four, up from three), and be able to download up to 50 titles at once (again, up from the current 25).

New subscription features are always welcome, especially when they don’t come at an added cost. But taking away existing features and locking them behind a paywall isn’t welcome. Perhaps this will pay off for Amazon, and users will spend the extra money to watch their content in as high a resolution as possible. But even so, they’ll be spending more to access the same quality content they may already get for “free,” as part of their Prime subscription.

(Washington, D.C., March 16, 2026) – The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service today completed the Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and issued the final record of decision for the Resolution Copper Project. The decision is now available on the agency’s project page. This is another important project in advancing President Trump’s goal of mineral independence and energy dominance by boosting domestic mineral production.

Once you’ve lived in a place for a while, one fact becomes clear: Your home isn’t getting any bigger, at least not without time and effort (and a truckload of cash). We all tend to grow into our homes, filling it with stuff over time, and that can lead to a storage crisis.

But your house can probably offer you extra storage with the right purchases and approach. There are all kinds of clever ways to increase the storage around your house. If you’re ready to get all that stuff off the floors and furniture and nearly tucked away, here are some ideas to explore.

Use wall art that doubles as storage cabinetry

If every room in your house is littered with small items that don’t have a permanent home and you don’t have any space for extra storage units or bulky open shelving, your walls might still offer a solution: wall art that also serves as shallow cabinetry. You can find framed art like this that doubles as a cabinet for storing jewelry, keys, documents, or any other small items that can clutter your home.

Add some shelves that have drawers

Adding some floating shelves to your walls is an obvious answer to your storage problems, sure, but if they’re just shelves, you’re missing a double-whammy opportunity. Choosing floating shelves that also offer drawers means you get twice the storage power in a single unit.

Transform a bookcase into a closet

Closet space is a crucial part of every home’s storage system. If you need closet space but are out of luck, you can create a shallow closet from a bookcase. All you need is a bookcase that fits your space, closet rod hardware, and some reinforcing lumber if necessary (this depends on how sturdy your bookcase is. Remove the shelves you don’t want from the upper or lower part of the bookcase, install your hanging rod, and move all those extra clothes, shoes, and other items into place.

Add a hinged countertop extension as a prep or dining area in the kitchen

An indirect way to increase your kitchen storage is to add a hinged countertop extension like this. The extension can be used as extra prep space or as a quick dining area, and having it will allow you to keep more appliances and storage jars or baskets on the rest of your countertops without having to constantly move them out of the way when you work or eat.

Use bed risers and under-bed storage containers to reclaim lost storage space

If you’ve run out of ideas for where to stash all your stuff, sometimes the trick is to create some extra vertical space by lifting your bed. A set of simple bed risers combined with easy-access rolling containers like these will give you a huge amount of storage.

Install a shelf over doorways and windows

One of the most overlooked places for storage is over doorways and windows, areas that are usually just dead space. If you’ve got enough vertical wall space over a door, a simple floating shelf can create a spot for books or other items.

Replace your bed’s headboard with one that offers storage

A headboard on your bed doesn’t have to be purely decorative, and the wall your bed is pushed up against doesn’t have to be wasted space. Buy a headboard with storage built in and you can stash away all the stuff that’s sitting on top of your tables, dressers, and the floor. As a bonus, you can find these with charging ports, so you’ll never have to worry about missing an alarm again.

Add a rolling pantry to your kitchen

No matter how big your kitchen is, you’ll always wind up with stuff cluttering your countertops, or jammed up on top of your wall cabinets. But you can take advantage of another quirk found in many kitchens: that narrow gap between your lower cabinets and the appliances that seems to exist only to collect dust and crumbs. A narrow rolling pantry cart can get you the extra storage you need while eliminating that weird gap, a twofer win.

Use space-saving hangers in your closets

You can get a lot more out of your closets with space-saving hangers like these, which allow you to hang five garments on one hanger—basically making every closet five times larger.

Add pedestal storage under your washer and dryer

The key to finding more storage in your house is looking for the hidden dead space you’re overlooking. One of the most common spots we miss is under the washer and dryer in our laundry area. Adding a pedestal with a drawer under each appliance turns a slice of vertical space into valuable storage.
