After all, it’s a treasure trove of amazing bargains, and you can always find what you want—and what you had no idea you wanted until you saw it and suddenly had to have it. While you probably know that you can always get a great deal on certain Target products, sometimes the items are so inexpensive, you’ll do a double-take when you see them. We definitely did!

But there’s no need to wander the aisles or search the website for hours on end to find them. We’ve rounded up the top picks in every category for you—and believe it or not, they’re all $7 or less. (Yes, you read that right!) Since you’ll be saving so much, you may also want to pick up a few of these under-$50 Target finds that only look expensive.
