Target announced today that around 5,000 of its frequently shopped items will see prices reduced in the coming weeks. The prices on about 1,500 items have already been cut, and all the remaining price changes will be in place by the end of the summer.
"These price reductions will collectively save consumers millions of dollars this summer," Target said in a news release, but it's also a way for the retailer to stay competitive within the market.
Among the items discounted will be food products, Memorial Day items, things for Fourth of July fun and of course, back-to-school gear.

Aldi lowers prices on over 250 food items
Aldi will also be cutting prices this summer on around 250 of its items, the grocer said in a release earlier this month.
“With more experts warning of persistent inflation, the time was right to deliver even greater discounts on our already low prices for the second year in a row," Dave Rinaldo, president at Aldi U.S., said in a statement.
According to a news release, Aldi will drop prices on seasonal items like "picnic necessities, BBQ essentials, travel-ready snacks and better-for-you foods."
“We don’t want food prices to hold people back from getting together with friends and family or spending time outdoors this season," Rinaldo said.
