Summer is over, and we have officially entered the holiday shopping season with some of the biggest deal events of the year. Walmart’s holiday shopping event is in full swing, and the best part is that Walmart allows you to shop for deals without a pricey membership. All you have to do is visit the site and start shopping.
Another major perk of the sale is that if you prefer in-person shopping, you can do so at Walmart and still take advantage of the sales through today, Sunday. These Walmart deals span every tech item you can think of and lots more, making this the perfect opportunity to purchase something you have been eyeing or get a head start on your holiday shopping.
The first 12 hours of this deal event were open to Walmart+ members only, but now the sale is open to everyone until it ends Sunday evening. If you do want to join Walmart+, it’s $98 for the year and comes with perks like free grocery delivery, free shipping with no order minimum, Paramount+ streaming, and more. You can also try a 30-day free trial. To make your Walmart deals shopping experience easier, I’ve rounded up some of the best deals below.

FAQs
What is the Walmart Deals event?
Walmart’s October holiday deal event begins on Oct. 8 at 12 a.m. ET for Walmart+ members and Oct. 8 at 12 p.m. ET for everyone. The deals event ends six days later, on Oct. 13. The event’s date was likely strategically planned to happen at the same time as Amazon Prime Day.
Does Walmart price match Amazon deals?
Walmart does not price match competitor’s online or in-store prices, including Amazon. However, we have found that many Amazon Prime Day deals can be found on Walmart. The major difference is that at Walmart, you do not need a Walmart+ subscription to shop the deals, whereas on Amazon, you need an Amazon Prime subscription.
