Target has announced a strong start to Black Friday sales with its most popular items being the Apple Watch and Apple iPads, Beats Solo 2 headphones, FitBit Charge HR and the Philips Sonicare 2 electric toothbrush.

Guests were granted early access to nearly all of Target’s doorbusters on Target.com beginning Thanksgiving morning. Demand outpaced 2014’s record Thanksgiving performance, making it Target’s biggest day for online sales yet, driven largely by electronics.

Top selling Black Friday items:
● Apple iPads were top sellers in stores and online. On average, Target sold an iPad every second throughout the day on Thanksgiving. Apple Watch was especially popular in stores.
● Gaming consoles were popular in stores and online, including Nintendo Wii U, which was the top selling item on Target.com.
● TVs were one of most sought after items in stores— the 55” Westinghouse at $249.99 was Target’s top selling TV.
● Movies were a big hit in stores with guests buying more than 3 million on Thanksgiving.
● A three-foot stuffed teddy bear, priced at $10, was a surprise hit, with some stores selling out in minutes.
● Top toys included LEGO, Barbie, Disney Princess and Star Wars. Target exclusives generated nearly one-third of Star Wars toy sales for the day.
● Beats Solo 2 headphones were one of the top sellers on Target.com and in stores at $96.99 (reg. $199.99).

Wii U was popular because they probably only had 10 ps4 and Xbox ones and 1000 Wii U's!

People choose Wii U because they love it. If they wanted the others, they would have gone to the other stores. Heck there's a pawn shop with a shit ton of Xbox and ps4 consoles.

I bought a pair of beats to use on my Xbox one but they were heavy and not comfortable. The sound quality is also pretty bad but I knew that going in. I was just hoping for a decent pair so I could bring my Sennheisers to my music room. A better idea is to just stick with a brand that knows what they are doing and not just trying to be a fashion accessory. Took them back the next day.

What's this I see? Apple Watch was one of the top sellers? What do you have to say about this Mukai?
