The holiday season is meant for magic, and if you’re like me, you might be interested in going all out and embracing the theme from all angles. That means fun breakfasts, Christmas cookie baking, decorating, events, and even revamping the snack cupboard. Target is my go-to place for festive snacks because they come out with a huge variety of options for $10 or less (most are under $5!). Here are some of the best ones they offer.
Welch’s Christmas Mixed Fruit Snacks

Welch’s fruit snacks are a reliable go-to, and when they come in Christmas shapes, they’re that much cuter. Under $6 for 26 packs? Even better.
Sensible Portions Garden Veggie Zesty Ranch Holiday Trees

Here’s the deal: Garden Veggie cannot make a bad chip product. Everything they have to offer is something we’re willing to accept … and scarf down. The zesty ranch flavor is a win for us in the veggie straw version, and these little Christmas trees might be the cutest thing we’ve ever seen. And they’re just over $3? Add to cart.
Goldfish Holiday Peppermint Cocoa Graham Cookies

Between the peppermint cocoa Goldfish with the Snoopy shapes (yum and “aww” combined), the cheddar holiday shapes variety, and the fact that they’re less than $3 a bag, these are a yuletide must-have in the snack cabinet.
Drizzilicious Holiday Peppermint Bites Mini Rice Cakes

Not to be dramatic, but Drizzlicious are the best thing to hit the snack aisle in a hot minute. A version drizzled with white chocolate and sprinkled with candy cane bits sounds ridiculous in the best way. There’s also a gingerbread version we’re totally into — and for less than $4 a bag, we’re inclined to grab both.
Favorite Day Candy Cane Crunch Mini Sandwich Cookies

Target’s Favorite Day brand offers a wealth of affordable snacks that look delicious. At $4 a box, these cookies are at the top of the list for Christmastime.

Favorite Day Hot Cocoa and Marshmallow Popcorn

$3 is a small price to pay for a bag of flavored popcorn, so you might as well get the Hot Cocoa & Marshmallow flavor and the Peppermint & White Chocolate. Maybe even mix them together.
Mother’s Holiday Reindeer Games Cookies

Animal cookies are good, well, and fine, but the Christmas version (for less than $4) is superior, obviously.
Favorite Day Peppermint Twist Cookie Dough Bites

These $2 bags of peppermint and white fudge cookie dough bites sound like something we’d put in our own stockings with zero shame.

Favorite Day Peppermint Snowflake Bark

Target’s Favorite Day brand snowflake peppermint is absolutely adorable, and for only $5, it would make a great addition to a holiday charcuterie board.
Favorite Day Gingerbread Cheesecake Sandwich Cookies

Gingerbread sandwich cookies are inherently delicious, but adding cheesecake to the flavor profile for the low price of $4 sounds insane in the best way.
Favorite Day Rudolph’s Mix Indulgent Snack Trail Mix
